At this time of year, as the holidays come to a close, the recruitment market tends to get a little busier. Sometimes a lot busier. If you're looking to hire into your team, you're not alone... and more roles coming on to the market won't make your task any easier.
VMA GROUP have been the leading name in recruitment for comms folk for 45 years, and every month across the business we're speaking to 1000s of communications professionals, from Corporate Affairs Directors to Internal Comms Execs... and everything in between. Some people are *super* keen to move and they're actively applying for roles, but most aren't...
The reality is, most people won't be applying to job ads, they won't be knocking on a recruiter's door waving a cv, and they won't be scouring your company website for a new role. They will be heads-down doing their job...
This reduces the pool, plus the influx of new roles reduces your share of voice in reaching this pool. That's not ideal.
The 'other pool', that larger group of people happily getting on with things in their current role, is of course harder to reach, and harder to engage... but the fact is most people are generally open to opportunities - the right ones - and all it takes is a timely call from an experienced recruiter they know and trust.
If you're looking to hire, why not sidestep the competition... perhaps we're already talking to just the person you're looking for?
