Lean Recruitment

We have all worked in HR departments where things haven’t changed in 10 years and we still fill out the same old forms and no-one ever asks why? If you do ask why its always the same old answer “its how we’ve always done things”.

In my last job, we had a million pound system and yet we had to complete a paper form and take it up to “Doris and Ken” in accounts who put it in a file and into a drawer….. why? No-one ever questioned it.

Lean Recruitment is a new way to look at your HR departments and making your Recruitment and Onboarding process more efficient. It identifies and eliminates non-essential and non-value added tasks in your talent acquisition process, and matches your process to what your internal stakeholders actually want.
