Belcan Named to Inavero’s 2012 Best of Staffing™ Client List

Belcan Named to Inavero’s 2012 Best of Staffing™ Client List »

Cincinnati, OH, March 15, 2012 –(PR.com)– Belcan Staffing Solutions is proud to announce that it has been named to Inavero’s 2012 Best of Staffing™ Client list. Best of Staffing, presented in partnership with CareerBuilder, is the nation’s only award that recognizes staffing firms that receive remarkable reviews from their clients. Fewer than 1% of North American staffing firms have been named to the 2012 Best of Staffing Client List.

“Belcan is honored that our customers recognize and appreciate the 24/7 dedication of our staff team members and assigned talent,” said Leigh Ann Pagnard, President of Belcan Staffing Solutions. “We love our customers and our employees, and we truly enjoy the work we do each day to help them succeed. We will continue to earn their trust daily and hope to make our inclusion in Best of Staffing a yearly tradition!”

Staffing firms competing to make the Best of Staffing list underwent a rigorous client survey process followed by careful analysis of responses to determine satisfaction levels. Belcan received satisfaction ratings of 9 or 10 out of 10 from 70 percent of our clients, significantly higher than the industry’s average of 50 percent. Best of Staffing participants secured a place on the list by earning an average Net Promoter ScoreÒ that was nearly double the national staffing industry benchmark for client satisfaction.

“The staffing industry continues to play a key role in helping to revitalize the economy,” said Eric Gregg, Inavero’s Founder and CEO. “Staffing firms give growth-minded organizations a more flexible alternative to recruiting their own employees, letting both the employee and employer determine if the fit is right for a more permanent position. Both sides receive tremendous value in a flexible, yet meaningful working relationship, and as they engage with staffing firms to help achieve those goals, the service experience they have is very important to their success. The Best of Staffing lists are a resource for businesses and talent who are trying to find staffing firms that provide exceptional service.”

Anita Borg Institute Releases New Report on Hiring Practices to Help Companies Compete in the Global War for Technical Talent

Anita Borg Institute Releases New Report on Hiring Practices to Help Companies Compete in the Global War for Technical Talent »

Palo Alto, CA, March 10, 2012 –(PR.com)– The Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology today released a new report that outlines four key areas where companies should focus their recruitment efforts to increase access to a range of technical talent available in a highly competitive environment. Solutions to Recruit Technical Women is the first in a series of reports offering solutions companies can employ to improve the recruitment, retention, and advancement of technical women.

When it comes to technical talent, industry recruitment and hiring practices have become highly complex over the past decades as the labor market for scientists and engineers has shifted from individual national economies to a truly global labor market. Multinational companies face significant challenges and competition to fill technical positions, and renewed talk of a “global war for tech talent” emerged shortly after the recent global economic downturn.

The Anita Borg Institute report points out that for both large and small organizations who invest in a recruiting infrastructure as well as outsourced recruiters and head hunters, there continue to be consistent blind spots in recruiting and hiring practices that prevent companies from tapping into the wide spectrum of technical talent available — men, women or underrepresented minorities.

Extensive organizational research indicates that these blind spots are concentrated in four areas that, if ignored, can negatively impact equity, productivity and innovation:

• Concentrating recruitment at a small number of sites;
• Narrow recruitment criteria;
• Hiring processes that are implicitly biased; and
• Lack of organizational infrastructure to support recruitment and hiring efforts that yield high returns to both talent and diversity.

Solutions to Recruit Technical Women is designed to help companies overcome these blind spots based on data-driven results in both academic research and corporate practice. The report features case studies from Cisco, IBM, Intel and Intuit, and provides strategies to enable companies to address each blind spot:

• Recruitment avenues: Companies should consider expanding recruitment channels such as reaching out to a broader array of academic institutions, developing internship programs, leveraging social networks and other ways that expand their pool of job candidates.
• Recruitment practices: Carefully examining internal recruitment practices and how they market job opportunities externally will have a significant effect on how potential talent views the company and considers whether to join a candidate pool.
• Hiring process: As companies begin to attract more diverse candidates, then it becomes important to focus on the hiring process itself to ensure a positive experience for candidates and to reduce the elimination of candidates based on implicit biases.
• Overarching considerations: Lasting change depends on a variety of factors such as implementing solutions not in isolation but in bundles, commitment to diversity from the top leadership down, setting and measuring against established goals, and longer term, helping to build the pipeline by funding or engaging in K-12 initiatives when interest in STEM educations and careers is all too often made or broken.

“The goal of our Solutions to Recruit Technical Women report is to help companies continuously improve and adjust their hiring practices and reduce barriers to attracting a diverse pool of top technical talent,” said Telle Whitney, CEO of the Anita Borg Institution. “By doing so, they will see greater returns on their recruitment investment, enhance innovation levels, and position themselves to succeed in an increasingly competitive global market.”
