At POP Consulting, we have an understanding that can power any recruitment process to pass any unique hurdles in today’s ever-changing work environments. It could be transforming talent acquisition challenges into solutions or narrowing down to managing complex transitions like leadership placement and building an inclusive culture. As professionals in talent acquisition, we are at the forefront of organizational change. With this in mind, we have carefully curated a new color palette that mirrors the transformative talent acquisition solutions we provide at P.O.P. Consulting, addressing common challenges head-on. 

The Problems Faced in Recruiting and Sourcing Talent 

Whether large or small, organisations constantly tackle problems affecting their overall success. Some of the key issues include:

Talent Acquisition and Retention

ManpowerGroup reports that 75% of employers have trouble filling organizational roles. Additionally, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released the results from their Job Opening and Labour Turnover Survey (JOLTS), showing that though there are 8.5 million jobs, only 0.8 unemployed people are available per job opening. 

Finding the right hands and building a culture that supports long-term retention can be tough in today’s competitive job market. 

P.O.P. Consulting helps you and your organization juggle the delicate balance of attracting top talent while developing unique strategies like retain search, contract-to-hire, and our other partnership models to retain talent within the organization. 

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)

DEI is an issue that many companies struggle to develop and implement strategies that create a diversity, equity, and inclusion ecosystem. 

Reports show that 76% of job seekers and employees say diversity is a key factor when evaluating an organization. 

While some organizations check DEI initiatives on their list of things to check, they are supposed to be an integral part of a company’s culture. 

However, as a professional certified talent acquisition firm, POP Consulting has developed specific DEI forward sourcing strategies to help our clients overcome these barriers and create a truly inclusive work environment.

Employee Engagement 

A winning culture is what keeps employees committed to the company. To help promote this, the employer must keep employees motivated and engaged, a growing concern for most HR professionals. Low morale and a disengaged workforce have led to reduced turnover rates and decreased productivity. 

As professionals, we help train recruitment teams who struggle with this, as a winning culture focuses on positive traits that result in exceptional performance. 

This requires developing and executing a plan with specific objectives that all the team members in the organization can work towards and measure, which they always lack. 

We recognized that talent acquisition is beyond hiring and firing; they strategically encourage and improve the workforce’s workflow. At P.O.P. Consulting, that is our strength. We don’t just make up stuff; we allow our results to speak for themselves.  

Navigating Change

Reports have shown that change management is a huge burden, and 27% of employees feel leadership is trained to lead through change. This indicates that there’s a lot of room for improvement. 

Organizational transformation, mergers, and leadership changes can be overwhelming. Using its strategic and precise approach, P.O.P. Consulting professionally helps our clients navigate these changes smoothly while maintaining employee trust and confidence.

Workplace Flexibility

Mercer’s 2024 Global Talent Trends survey showed that only half of employers prioritize employee well-being, leaving 82% at risk of burnout. That means employers can also be at fault for encouraging or allowing this behavior.

The post-pandemic era has pushed organizations to rethink work structures, creating the need for better remote work policies and flexible working hours. P.O.P consulting develops unique ways to support work-life balance while maintaining productivity.

Compensation

 Employees are looking for higher wages; if they can’t get it at their current job, they look elsewhere to find the financial stability they need. 

However, companies that have lost employees now need to rehire or fill the gap, all while meeting employees’ expectations in the same situation as the ones who left. 

This is the infinity loop in which HR departments and managers find themselves. For example, a Harvard Business Review survey found that using a benchmarking tool increases the probability of salary fit for new hires by 22%. It also found that raising existing employees’ salaries by 6% increased employee retention by 16% for the following year.

P.O.P. Consulting uses a partnership model in talent acquisition, like Hourly partnerships,  contract-to-hire, Direct hire, and retained executive search in its approach, which helps us solve the compensation loop.
