RPO or Recruitment Process Outsourcing, a form of outsourcing where an employer transfers all or part of its recruitment functions to an external service provider, has been around for some time in Australia.

But very little data is available to gauge the size, prevalence, types and extent of RPO adoption by companies in Australia. Anecdotal evidences seem to suggest that adoption is increasing, driven in large part by the fact that there is no one-size-fits-all RPO model. In fact the type of RPO models differ across industry sectors and locations, influenced greatly by size of organisation, culture, volume of jobs and the expertise of suppliers.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Kevin W Grossman will be coming to Australia for #rhub 2012 conference.

Kevin is hard to miss if you work in the HR/Recruitment space. Do a Google search and it is easy to figure out that Kevin is one of the most influential voices in the HR/recruitment space.

John Sumser puts it succinctly:

What’s the next twelve months going to be like for recruiters? Will employers require the expertise of agency suppliers? Where will revenue come from? These and other issues confronting the recruitment industry will be tackled at #RHUB (Recruiters’ Hub). This year’s theme is “The Road Ahead”.
