What is Smart Sourcing in Recruitment?

Save money and time with our recruitment subscription model

Hiring new staff can lead to many costs. These include advertising fees, agency fees, and the time spent reviewing CVs. It also includes time spent interviewing candidates and onboarding new employees. Regular hiring can also be stressful and painstaking for your management team, who likely will have more pressing duties to attend to.  

To combat this problem, ACS Staffing Solutions have devised a Smart Sourcing system. It allows employers to be proactive with their hiring needs, save money, and continue to hire high-quality talent.

What is Smart Sourcing Recruitment?

ACS Smart Sourcing is a recruitment subscription model that provides businesses with flexible hiring packages for a fixed yearly fee.  

We have three different packages available depending on your employment needs and prospective salaries: Essentials, Scale and Pro. Each provides you with up to ten placements over the course of 12 months, but there are also add-on placements available in blocks of five.  

Why Smart Sourcing Recruitment?

Our recruitment subscription service is the only one of its kind and is revolutionising the recruitment industry in the following ways:

  • Cost Savings: No per-hire agency fees and predictable annual pricing.
  • Dedicated Support: Access to our talent sourcing team and monthly performance reviews.
  • Job Board and Tech Stack: Reach top candidates quickly by making use of our tools and systems.
  • Pro Package Advantage: A dedicated account manager who understands your business.

Benefits of Smart Source Recruitment for Your Business

On average, hiring costs can range from £3,000 to £10,000 per employee. These varying expenses can strain budgets. If managers want to reliably budget for their hiring fees, a subscription model is an ideal option. Smart Sourcing solves this by offering:

  • Reliable Budgeting: Fixed annual fees for peace of mind.
  • Time Savings: Our recruiters source, screen, and present qualified candidates.
  • Flexibility: Use credits as needed and top up any time.

By partnering with a talent acquisition team, you can also save on time and stress. Our recruitment team will analyse your goals and team dynamics to find someone who is an ideal fit for the role. Our recruiters will then source, screen, and shortlist qualified candidates, taking away the difficulty of filtering through applications yourself.  

We have developed a credit system that allows you to utilise our recruitment services as and when you need them throughout the year. You can also top up your credits, providing you with ultimate flexibility.
