In-House Recruiter Series. Half or Full Day Courses Available

Want to do more in-house and equip your internal recruitment team with a real competitive advantage? 

Whether you’re looking to set up your own recruitment function or develop the expertise of your existing talent acquisition team, our In-House Recruiter Training Series can help.

Investing in an in-house recruitment team can be an invaluable resource to represent your company’s employer brand, support line managers’ growing hiring demands and oversee a smooth hiring process. You’ll improve your time to hire, reduce agency spend and increase candidate engagement. But with advanced training and resources, in-house Recruitment professionals can do so much more. 

Whether you’d like your team to adopt a more proactive approach to candidate attraction (through targeted headhunting and passive candidate sourcing) or improve candidate engagement (to boost interview attendance and acceptance ratios), we offer a range of half- or full-day courses designed to give your business a clear recruiting advantage.

Introduction to In-House Recruitment

Providing an introduction to in-house recruitment, this half-day course covers all the employment legislation, hiring best practice and operational knowledge an in-house recruiter needs in their day-to-day role. Suitable for HR, Operations or Business professionals taking a more hands-on role in the hiring process or moving into a dedicated recruitment role, you’ll learn about all aspects of the recruitment cycle from job design and advertising to selection and onboarding.

Having consistent access to the best available talent is a major challenge facing in-house recruitment teams.
