Check out some recent posts from Hueman RPO

In late March 2020, Hueman RPO noticed a decrease in our job applications even as unemployment spiked to an all-time high. Fast forward to today, and as the job market steadily begins to make its recovery with unemployment claims falling and jobs steadily increasing with more than 559,000 jobs added in May 2021, finding talent is still a huge challenge for many businesses. Yes, you heard that right – jobs are coming back, unemployment is dropping, and many U.S. businesses are struggling to find workers.

There is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic was a complete shock for everyone. What started as small talk amongst friends and family spiraled into a nationwide pandemic. Offices and schools were closed, remote work and school became the new normal, and staying safe from the virus became the main priority. For recruiters and talent acquisition professionals, their already busy jobs were thrown into unprecedented chaos when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the U.S. in early March of 2020. While some recruiters had to step into overdrive to hire for already hard-to-fill positions, others were suddenly forced to stop hiring processes altogether. Other recruiters were let go or had their jobs put on pause for weeks or months on end. The majority transitioned from in-office positions to working from home with little-to-no training and learning new technologies while also helping hiring managers understand how to juggle remote interviewing, recruitment, and onboarding. 

I think we can all agree that, for any organization to succeed, it’s essential to recruit, hire and manage the very best people. And that begins by developing the best processes for these critical functions.

Great Place to Work® has honored Hueman as one of the 2021 Best Workplaces in Consulting & Professional Services™ for the 3rd time in a row, making them one of the best companies to work for in the country. 

Events in 2020 led to the Black Lives Matter movement taking to the streets—both literally and metaphorically—calling for systematic change across our nation. In response to the movement’s calls for change, Hueman knew that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) within its walls needed a real focus. So, amid social strife, heartbreak, and amidst a global pandemic, Hueman began to make a plan.

Today, ClearlyRated announced that we've received their 2020 Best of RPO Award! 

Hueman is a nationally and globally recognized recruitment firm based in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. Hueman is the only organization in the country to be named a Best Workplace 15 years in a row and is the parent company to four organizations, including Recruitment Process Outsourcing firm, Hueman: Your RPO Partner. Hueman offers a range of custom RPO services to a variety of partners across various industries, including healthcare, automotive, education, manufacturing and more.

Hueman was recently named one of the 2019 Best Workplaces in Consulting and Professional Services by Great Place to Work® and FORTUNE (you can see detailed results here). How'd we do it? One key was ensuring our employees feel a sense of belonging within our company. When your employees feel like they fit into your company, its culture will thrive.

Employee engagement. By now, you know it's something we scream from the rooftops. Why it's important. What it includes. What to do. What not to do. So, what makes Hueman the employee engagement expert? A lot of things, really.

A lot has changed for me over the past two years.

In 2016, I sold the recruitment company I founded in my spare bedroom 20-plus years ago: PPR Talent Management Group. This was a decision largely based on the incredible success of our recruitment process outsourcing arm. We had been thriving for eight years, and it was time to take this business out on its own.

You already know at Hueman, we hone in on the hearts—the humans. That's the very foundation of our new recruitment business. And this concept is part of a key movement we think is long overdue, and so, so important: the human-to-human (H2H) movement.
