rates, increased cost of living pressures, recessionary fears, geopolitical instability and more\u2026 It\u2019s clear that 2023 has certainly been a year of great uncertainty and volatility. With so much going on, it\u2019s clear that businesses are facing some big challenges at the moment. So, how can employers improve their hiring processes to better attract good talent? To help you better understand the hiring landscape in the UK, we polled 514 business leaders in June 2023. A snapshot of our findings? Hiring costs are increasing \u2014 in large part due to the rising cost of living \u2014 but also because of labour shortages and increased commissions from recruitment agencies or job boards hiking up their posting prices. SMEs are also struggling greatly in the competition against MNCs for good talent, and have difficulties accessing job boards due to their small budgets. All this is just the tip of the iceberg. The findings might surprise you or strongly resonate with you. But above all, we hope you gain valuable insights from this report that will help \u200cshape your <a href=\"https:\/\/smartmatch.employmenthero.com\/uk\/?type=employer\">recruitment and retention strategy<\/a> for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In this report, we cover:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Having more candidates doesn\u2019t necessarily mean better outcomes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The growing cost of hiring;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New hire turnover and talent shortages;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The struggle of SMEs against multinational corporations;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What takes up the most time in the recruitment cycle; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Much more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key findings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>31 days average amount of time taken by hiring leaders to fill a role in the UK.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>69% of hiring leaders agree that small businesses struggle to compete for talent with MNCs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>35 hours spent per week on hiring activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>68% increase in job advertising rates over the past year.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u00a33,089 average cost to advertise a role in the UK.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does the hiring landscape in the UK look like at the moment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the UK, unemployment rates have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/business\/jobs-market-shows-no-sign-of-slowing-as-number-in-work-exceeds-prepandemic-level-b1087356.html\">dipped to 3.8%<\/a> while wages have surged by 7.2% \u2014 although they are still not keeping pace with inflation. It\u2019s positive news seeing the unemployment rate remain historically low, but businesses are constantly struggling with difficulties in finding staff, rising costs and the pressure to help staff survive in this cost-of-living crisis. Figures for long-term ill-health are also particularly worrying, rising again to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/business\/2023\/apr\/18\/sickness-uk-economy-job-vacancies-rishi-sunak-ons\">new peak of over 2.5 million<\/a>. This is being driven in particular by people staying out of work for longer, rather than people leaving work. When there\u2019s a talent shortage, hiring processes have to be efficient \u2014 it can\u2019t be too long or too arduous, or else businesses risk losing good talent. Some businesses, like UK pub chain Fuller\u2019s, have even turned to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/93f4e4e7-da2b-44f1-8193-2d3fded7820d\">hiring those above 50<\/a> to help fill staffing gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can hiring leaders and employers do to cut hiring costs but still get the talent they need?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We understand that the data from our report can be a lot to digest. Here are a few action points to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Invest in an applicant tracking system (ATS)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We can\u2019t stress this enough \u2014 having an <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/products\/applicant-tracking-system\/\">applicant tracking system<\/a> is an absolute gamechanger for your business. If there\u2019s anything we\u2019ve gained from the pandemic, it\u2019s that leveraging technology to improve business processes has never been so important. An integrated ATS enables you to advertise, hire and onboard staff seamlessly, all from one place. You can post job ads to multiple job sites with a single submission, integrate with popular job boards, track candidates through the pipeline, build a shortlist, and so on. The benefits are out there for you to enjoy \u2014 you simply need to take the first step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improve your onboarding process to reduce new hire turnover rates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>They are all interconnected \u2014 a bad onboarding experience contributes to higher new hire turnover rates, which in turn raises hiring costs because you have to restart the hiring process from scratch again. Nip the problem in the bud so it doesn\u2019t come back to haunt you! In a competitive market, you need to snap talent up fast, and do it efficiently. Onboard them digitally \u2014 send them contracts, assign company policies, and get them set up and feeling confident before day one. It doesn\u2019t just stop there \u2014 once they\u2019ve started, make sure you\u2019ve got a well-structured induction programme that helps them ease into their role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Focus on employee retention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your employees don\u2019t quit, there wouldn\u2019t be a need to hire \u2014 unless you\u2019re expanding business operations, of course. Ask for feedback regularly, listen to what your employees want, and create a company culture that brings out the best in your employees. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/talent-insights-report\/\">Talent Insights Report for the UK<\/a> previously revealed that apart from a salary increase, employees are looking for a better reward and recognition programme, an assurance of job security, flexible working options, monetary bonuses or rewards and extra leave days that could be used for birthday celebrations, mental health needs, or volunteering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hire globally if you can\u2019t hire locally<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>And here\u2019s a bonus tip \u2014 if hiring locally ever gets too overwhelming for your business and you just can\u2019t seem to find the talent you need, why not expand your horizons? In today\u2019s flexible working world, \u200crecruitment opportunities are borderless. 91±¬ΑΟ\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/products\/employer-of-record\/\">Employer of Record (EoR) service<\/a> can help you employ the best talent for your team, based anywhere in the world. Get employment contracts created in compliance with local employment laws, without the need for any recruiters, overseas entities, or compliance risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-default is-layout-flow wp-container-core-quote-is-layout-1 wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-11 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--9)\">\n<p><em>\u201cEstablishing a firm hiring brief and scorecard from the outset ensures a shared understanding of the desired skillsets and competencies, increasing the likelihood of making the right hire.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Daniella Angel, Talent Acquisition Partner (UK)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid recruitment.
