What’s the difference between reactive and proactive recruitment?

Reactive recruitment depends on candidates applying for roles as they become available. Proactive recruitment takes a holistic approach to talent, focusing on sourcing, engaging and attracting candidates before demand creeps in.

Why is proactive recruitment so crucial in 2021?

You might think waiting around for an open position or active jobseeker to come along is easier in the short term. But these reactive approaches could be doing you more harm than good. Generic job postings aren’t delivering results like they used to. And talent isn’t always going to be available when you’re ready to hire.
