Power Up Your iGaming and Payments Recruitment: The Compelling Benefits of an RPO Partnership

The iGaming and Payments landscapes are undergoing a significant maturation. As these sectors evolve beyond their initial growth spurts, the need for more strategic solutions becomes ever more pressing. Recruiting and retaining the best talent is crucial for staying ahead of the curve in this increasingly competitive environment. This is where Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partnerships can be a game-changer.

Beyond Efficiency: Strategic Benefits of an RPO for iGaming and PayTech Companies

While streamlining recruitment processes is a significant advantage, RPOs offer a broader range of strategic benefits perfectly suited to the dynamic needs of iGaming and PayTech companies. Here's how an RPO partnership can empower your talent acquisition efforts:

Effortless Scaling: Hire When You Need, Not When You Can

The iGaming and PayTech industries are known for their fluctuations in hiring demands. An RPO partnership allows you to scale your recruitment up or down effortlessly as your needs evolve. According to the 2022 Lighthouse Research & Advisory RPO Value and Insights Study, 84% of companies report that their RPO enables them to adapt their hiring strategy to changing market conditions. This agility ensures you can seize opportunities and capitalise on growth without being impeded by recruitment limitations.

Cost Optimisation: Invest in Talent, Not Just Recruitment

Managing an in-house recruitment team can be expensive. RPOs can help you optimise costs associated with recruitment by leveraging their expertise and economies of scale. One of the primary benefits of RPO is that it can help reduce recruitment costs. According to a report by research firm Aberdeen, 36% of companies that partner with an RPO were able to reduce their costs of hiring. You can focus your resources on core business functions while ensuring a high-quality, cost-effective talent acquisition strategy.

A Higher Calibre of Talent: Attract and Secure the Best

The war for talent is real, especially in competitive industries like iGaming and PayTech. An industry-specialist RPO brings a wealth of expertise and access to deep industry networks and talent pools. They can help you attract and secure top-tier candidates with the specific skill sets and experience critical for success in your fast-paced environment. The data speaks for itself - a staggering 97% of employers report improved hiring metrics after partnering with an RPO.

Turbocharge Your Efficiency: Faster Hiring Means Faster Growth

Time is of the essence in the iGaming and PayTech world. RPOs can help you streamline your entire recruitment process, from candidate sourcing to onboarding, significantly reducing time-to-hire. This allows you to fill critical positions quicker and capitalise on new opportunities faster.

Building Your Employer Brand: Attract Talent Like a Magnet

A strong employer brand is a powerful recruitment tool, especially in attracting top talent. RPOs, with their deep understanding of employer branding strategies, can help you refine your employer value proposition (EVP) and develop targeted outreach campaigns. This allows you to showcase your company culture and attract candidates who align perfectly with your iGaming or PayTech environment.

The RPO Advantage: Deeply Embedded Partnerships for Lasting Success

Unlike traditional recruitment agencies, RPOs offer a deeper level of collaboration. They become an extension of your HR team, embedded within your hiring workflows. This allows for a more strategic partnership where you can influence key areas like:

●      Branding: Develop a compelling employer brand narrative that resonates with your target talent pool.

●      DEI Hiring: Implement Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) strategies to attract a wider range of top candidates.

●      Internal Mobility: Create a clear path for internal talent growth and development, strengthening employee engagement.

●      Technology Optimisation: Leverage cutting-edge recruitment technologies to streamline your entire hiring process.

By partnering with a specialist RPO, you gain access to a wealth of expertise, resources, industry networks and technology, empowering you to compete effectively in the dynamic iGaming and PayTech landscapes.
