Have you been paying attention to the steadily aggressive changes in the Employment Market? Are you struggling to find good Employees to help you grow your Business? Have you tried placing Ads and finding your next "Rock Star" on your own, with little or no luck? Well... You're not alone!
Here are a few FACTS that you should know...
- The National Unemployment Rate has been below 5% for quite some time and is the lowest it has been in over 18+ Years!
- Business Growth has been tremendous, especially in the last 6mo! The Stock Market is closing at Record Highs on an almost daily basis!
- The available Work Force is shrinking, especially when considering Skilled, Licensed or Professional-Level workers!
These 3 Factors, as well as others, are all contributing to the struggle to find quality employees! And let's face it, this is probably not what you specialize in, nor is it primarily what you signed-up to do when choosing to start or manage a business!
Now, here's the best part (You'd better brace yourself)...
YOU ARE NOT IN CONTROL HERE!
(But you CAN be!)
Let's discuss these 3 Major Factors and explore how you can use them to leverage the current Employment Market!
(But you CAN be!)
Let's discuss these 3 Major Factors and explore how you can use them to leverage the current Employment Market!
Unemployment Rate below 5%
Sadly, this is an interesting fact that is impacting business growth. You would think this would be a "Positive" factor because basic logic states that the more people are working, the better businesses are doing! But it's just not the case when it comes to Staffing your offices, stores, etc! Let's take a moment and flip this statistic on its head... a 5% Unemployment Rate means that 95% of Eligible Workers already have a job! These members of the workforce are in control and they know it! They aren't searching Job Boards because they simply don't need to! You need to know how to get their attention and want to hear the "Sales Pitch" on why they should be working for you! Don't know how to make that happen? Hire someone who does!
Business Growth at Record Highs!
Business Growth at Record Highs!
You see it! You hear about it on the news channels, from colleagues, from employees, and from friends. Business growth has been pretty darned good for large and small businesses over the last 6mo especially and it's only continuing from here! More transactions are taking place and more money is exchanging hands! But, are you ahead of the curve? Did you already hire the staff and train them in time to handle these increases? Are you drowning because you or your existing employees just can't handle the additional business? Having the correct number of employees, with the right skills and motivation is key! Don't let the additional Revenues slip through your fingers while you attempt to do something you aren't very familiar with! As a Business Owner and/or Manager, you have to capture this additional business while it's there!
Today's available Workforce is shrinking!
Ths Unemployment Rate is a great indicator of where the workforce is headed. However, it's not the whole picture. Today we are facing issues with not only having fewer workers available as a whole but more importantly, the quality of those workers is diminishing. They have either not had Skills Training and/or Higher Education available to them or they simply have made the choice not to participate. They feel as though they don't have to put that effort in prior to an employer finding them and offering them a position! They expect that you will provide this to them as part of that "Sales Pitch" and get them trained on your dime. Let's face it, a good majority of employees today would love to show up to work in their pajamas and play on their smart phones for most of the day. It's a horrible situation that employers today have to deal with, but it's real! So, how do you find the proverbial "needle in a haystack?" Good question! You've basically got to become a Special Operations Expert in the field or... hire someone who is!
These workers are sitting back, just waiting for potential employers to contact them! This is why your $200, $300, $400, 30-Day "Renewable" Job Postings are going to waste! This is why your Pay-Per-Click or Social Media Ad is costing you a TON of money, with little or no results! So ask yourself, do you like throwing away your Money or more importantly, your Time?
Now, let's solve the issue...
Hiring a professional Recruiting Firm is something you have probably debated, but instantly thought "They are all too expensive!" Understandably, this leads you to attempt the process of finding an employee on your own. Well, it's true! You're right! They are Expensive! They know today's challenges of the Employment Market and are charging a Premium for their services. Their Fees, typically based on a % of First Year's Salary, are increasing. And guess what... it's probably going to get worse! However, hiring a Recruiting Firm can be the smartest option when you really think about all you have to invest to find a great employee! You have Job Posting costs, Social Media Ad costs, Resume Search time (taking you away from business needs), Phone Interview time, Face-To-Face Interview time, Skills Assessment costs, Personality Assesment costs, Background Check costs, etc!
