Ventajas
Talent Orchard provides recruiters with the opportunity to grow and learn new skill sets and support clients from a variety of industries, which a lot of organizations don't offer. Many recruiters enjoy the chance to not be placed in a repeatable track of continually searching for the same few skill sets. We are a fast-moving consulting environment and many clients rely on us for quick turnaround to help them in times of need and for our expertise in hard-to-fill positions. We are able to customize our approach to fit the need of the client, which creates a true partnership arrangement and an environment for repeat business, as we have seen with many of our clients coming back to us regularly. This varies greatly from sourcing/pipeline support to full lifecycle recruiting and even to direct client support and access to their internal systems or even use of the client's laptop. Based on the type of searches a recruiter manages, we have access to a wide variety of sourcing tools targeted at different candidate specialties, including active job boards as well as passive recruiting tools. We do work primarily in a virtual environment where recruiters are entrusted to own their "desk" and their contribution to the success of the project they are supporting, however, we also have tools to stay connected for support and integration into a team environment.
Desventajas
It's not always easy for staff to stay motivated in a virtual environment where self-motivation and self-direction is key. We try to support more integration into a team culture by use of tools and encourage team collaboration for each project.
