Organizations are starting to use their own resources to directly source top independent professionals. The demand for independent talent grows, which is why enterprises are by-passing third-party staffing agencies or consulting firms for recruiting purposes and developing talent engagement strategies.
Direct sourcing has many economic benefits: the ability to avoid high-priced staffing markups, a decrease in overhead costs by hiring fewer full-time employees, and filling project-specific roles with the right-priced independent talent.
In this exclusive webinar, Linda Mann, Chief Experience Officer at MBO Partners, and Eric Rumbaugh, Partner at Michael Best & Friedrich LLP, discussed keys to developing an enterprise-grade, compliant, and efficient engagement with independent talents. They discussed how important it is for a business to build a centralized engagement program that encompasses finding, sourcing, engaging, paying, and managing independent workers.
