Follow on Google News | UK Candidate Attraction Report identifies top candidate sourcing channels and challengesEploy, a leader in enterprise cloud E-Recruitment software, today published the 5 the Annual UK Candidate Attraction Report.
By: Eploy Sourcing channel quadrants for sectors & company size In-house and agency recruiters were asked to rate each of their main sourcing channels in terms of the quantity and quality of candidates that they typically generate. The full report charts responses within a 'Sourcing Channel Quadrant' enabling recruiters to identify the effectiveness of each channel in each sector / industry and based on company size. Some of the key findings in the report include: Candidate scarcity is still the #1 challenge for recruiters (but the problem reduced over 2020) The lack of suitably qualified / skilled / experienced candidates is still seen as the biggest recruitment challenge for 50% of in-house recruiters (down from 64% in 2019). The pandemic and building a diverse and inclusive workforce were also cited as top challenges for candidate attraction in 2020. High numbers of applications in many sectors As candidate scarcity reduces as a problem for many in-house recruiters and industries, we note perhaps the first signs of the tide turning from a candidate led market - with increasing numbers of companies now struggling to cope with the increase in applications for their vacancies. This is most noticeable in the Business Services and Hospitality, Leisure & Tourism industries where around 3/5 recruiters report this as an issue. Careers sites are improving Many companies have invested heavily in candidate-centric careers sites, the results seem promising. The most successful company careers sites now contain more candidate focused content to help candidates make informed decisions as well as to promote employer brands. In 2021, in house recruiters are expected to do more, with less. 46% of In-house recruiters are expecting increased levels of hiring in 2021. However, recruitment marketing budgets will need to stretch as only 21% are expecting an increase to their recruitment marketing budgets.
