To the Procurement clients and recruiters out there. How important is pace to you? 🚀 In the fast-paced world of recruitment, client response rates play a pivotal part in securing the best talent. A delayed or lackluster response can mean losing out on top candidates so this is why efficient client communication is the key to success. In today's competitive job market, top talent is in high demand. An engaged client who responds swiftly, signals commitment and respect for candidates' time as well as their own. Client responsiveness is key to providing a positive candidate experience and in turn candidates who feel valued and respected during the recruitment process are more likely to accept offers and become advocates for your brand. From a recruitment side, clear, and timely communication is also important. Speedy communication can make all the difference in securing the best candidates! Every delayed response is a missed opportunity. Top candidates are often in high demand and exploring multiple opportunities simultaneously therefore a slow response can lead to candidates accepting offers elsewhere. I'd be interested to hear people's thoughts from a client and candidate perspective. ⬆️ Connect with me and follow @Talent Drive ✉️ Message me to discuss everything Procurement  🌐 Visit our website to see all of our live jobs -

Logistics companies lose millions because of this simple oversight—here’s how to avoid it. Most logistics companies either choose a random recruitment agency or hire without one. This is what you need to know: General Recruitment Agency vs. Specialised Logistics Labour Partner General Recruitment Agency: ● Works across multiple industries ● Broad talent pool but lacks industry-specific knowledge ● Takes a one-size-fits-all approach 🚛 Specialised Logistics Labour Partner (Transport & Logistics): ● Focuses only on transport & logistics roles ● Deep understanding of the industry, safety standards, and regulations ● Access to experienced, job-ready candidates → Key Difference: Specialised partners save you time, reduce turnover, and provide the right talent for your specific needs. Why go general when you can go specialised?
