If you’re anything like I was when I was a recruiter, you’d probably say that reviewing CVs is an art that you’ve mastered.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

Whether you’re a recruiter, hiring manager or candidate, the interview process can potentially be a disorganized mess for everyone involved.

If you feel like you’re the only one working harder and still struggling to fill your open roles, think again. A recent Bersin study found that the average time to fill has increased by 8%, reflecting a increased push to hire more while keeping the size and budgets of recruiting teams relatively flat.
