Priority recommendations

Recommendations are intelligence-led and expert-guided, intended to sharpen the next recruitment conversation.

Reduce Decision Latency

Slow hiring compounds vacancy cost and makes strong candidates more likely to accept elsewhere.

Action: Set clear stage ownership, introduce weekly hiring standups, and cap feedback windows at 48 hours.

Reduce Agency Dependence

High agency reliance is expensive and often signals a weak direct attraction or planning model.

Action: Segment agency use by role difficulty, build direct sourcing lists, and reserve agencies for true specialist searches.

Introduce a Manager Hiring Framework

Manager delay is one of the fastest ways to lose candidate momentum and inflate vacancy cost.

Action: Give managers a simple hiring SLA, role briefing template, and feedback scorecard.
