Hiring the right talent quickly is crucial, but many companies struggle with reducing their time-to-hire. ⏳ A drawn-out hiring process can mean losing top candidates to competitors, adding stress to teams, and slowing down business growth. From defining clear objectives to conducting post-hire reviews. Whether you're looking to optimize recruitment metrics, leverage an ATS, or improve your interview process, there are several ways to boost efficiency and attract the right candidates faster. Streamlining your process not only cuts down on time but also helps secure top talent before others get the chance. What strategies have worked for you in reducing time-to-hire at your organization? #HiringTips #RecruitmentStrategy #TimeToHire #kppsearch

Retaining top talent is one of the biggest challenges for businesses today. It's not just about offering competitive compensation and benefits. To truly keep their best people, companies must invest in their growth and create an environment where employees feel supported and valued. 🤝 This means providing real opportunities for career development, offering regular feedback and recognition, and aligning individual goals with broader company objectives. When employees see a future within an organization—both personally and professionally—they’re more likely to stay engaged for the long term. Creating a positive and inclusive work environment is also essential. People want to work in a place where they feel safe, appreciated, and empowered to contribute. By fostering this kind of culture, companies are not just keeping top talent— they are building a team that’s motivated to grow with them. 🌱 Additionally, investing in employee well-being is crucial. Prioritizing mental and physical health through wellness programs, flexible hours, and promoting work-life balance ensures a happy and productive workforce. Companies can also offer work enrichment opportunities, allowing employees to take on meaningful projects that challenge them and align with their skills, fueling both personal and professional growth.

I'm often asked "How is the market❓" I came across this graph 📈 which shows the ratio of voluntary resignations to redundancies in the US startup space. It's not the global Audit / Risk market, but I would imagine the trend is similar. The last market I would describe as "normal" was 2018-2019, i.e. pre-pandemic - here the ratio was around 4 to 1. Since then, the appetite to resign from a job has swayed vastly, illustrated below, recently 1.6 to 1. In real time (last few weeks), we are seeing confidence return and more movement will follow. I would expect 2025 to return to more like 3 to 1.

Last week, our Sydney team came together to celebrate a successful end to Q2. It was a great opportunity to recognize the team's hard work and dedication over the past few months. Looking forward to more successes in the second half of the year! 🎉👏 Eden Sayyadi Lee Hine Rachael Lawler Declan Stark Kate D'Arcy #QuarterlySuccess #TeamCelebration #kppsearch

🌍💚 Today is World Mental Health Day — a reminder that mental health matters just as much as physical health. Mental well-being is essential for all of us, both in our personal and professional lives. Prioritizing it can start with small, intentional actions: setting boundaries to allow time for rest, practicing mindfulness to stay grounded during busy days, and reaching out to friends, family, or colleagues when things feel overwhelming. Let’s continue supporting one another and making mental health a priority in every part of our lives. 🧠 How do you prioritize your mental health? #WorldMentalHealthDay2024 #MentalHealthMatters #WorkplaceWellness #SupportEachOther
