Recruitment
Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a form of business process outsourcing (BPO) when
an employer outsourcers or transfers the all or part of the staffing process to
an external service provider. A true
or total RPO solution involves the outsourcing of the entire recruiting function
or process to an external service provider. This provider serves to provide the
necessary skills, tools, technologies, and activities to serve as their client's
virtual "recruiting department". This
definition differs from occasional recruiting support often provided by many temporary,
contingency, and executive search firms. While these organizations do provide
an invaluable service, they do not qualify as RPO as it does not involve the outsourcing
of the recruiting process.
