In the run up to our technology event on the 26th September (you can book your complimentary tickets to the morning and afternoon sessions now) we are hosting blog posts from some of our exhibitors. This one is provided by Recruitment Juice.
UK Recruiter ran a survey back during the summer asking “what is the biggest barrier stopping recruitment owners training their recruitment teams”.
These are the results;
Challenge of training mixed team (rookies through to experienced recruiters) > 64%:
Followed by
Time away from revenue generating activities > 45%
Tracking learning/performance improvement > 45%
Difficultly in locating fresh content > 45%
Managers time preparing, conducting and following up training > 45%
Then
Unsure if recruiters retain the information taught > 27%
The cost > 27%
Very positively not many responded to;
Not believing training makes a discernible difference to performance > 9%
What is so interesting about this (and really great news for us!) is that many of the problems are actually resolved by the The Juice Talent Development Platform.
Recruitment Juice is the leading provider of online video training for recruiters.
The Juice Talent Development Platform is a refreshing way to inspire and develop your staff to build business performance. It’s an award-winning on-demand video-learning platform proven to increase your staff morale, motivation and sales revenues. Juice is suitable for all levels of recruiter, providing a personalised and interactive talent development journey designed for all levels of experience.
This survey is very interesting and highlights some of the training challenges that many of our clients had before they started using the The Development Platform. Our system provides a comprehensive library of quality, innovative and interactive fun learning content ranging from comedic bite sized video, expert analysis and advice, downloadable PDF documents and tests and quizzes to help cement the learning. Interestingly 64% of people in this survey said that the challenge of training mixed teams was the biggest hurdle to overcome. We totally understand this and believe that the Juice Talent Development Platform is by far the most cost effective and comprehensive way to induct and train recruiters, refine and improve established billers, develop managers and hone the leadership skills of directors.
We know managers worry about staff taking time away from revenue generating activity and that is one of the reasons The Juice system is so popular. It is a cloud based player and can be accessed anywhere there is an internet connection and is also available on the ipad, iphone and all other multi media devices.
Some managers are concerned with tracking learning/performance improvement; The Juice Talent Development Platform overcomes this by providing all users with their own independent login so full management reporting on all activity, progress and scores can be tracked.
We also know that managers do have difficulty in locating fresh content however with our Talent Development Platform we have over 700 bite sized videos in the player and add new fresh content every month. This month will see our contract and temp series added to along with a new series on legislation.
We totally understand that Managers time preparing, conducting and following up training is an issue so the good news is that The Juice Talent Development Platform is a great tool and resource to support group training. Managers/Owners can select a subject, spend 15 minutes viewing the content on the Juice player, discuss as a group and action. Consultants can be back at their desks and on the phone within 30 minutes!
We also know that recruiters and managers are unsure if enough of the the information taught via traditional training days and workshops is retained so this is another reason why the Juice Talent Development Platform is so popular because having the content permanently available on the Juice Player means consultants can benefit from the “little & often” approach and revisit relevant content whenever required whether that’s for a refresh on a particular subject or for a boost in motivation!
The Juice Talent Development Platform is very cost effective and the cost comparison of a full years unlimited access to the Juice Development Platform is often compared to 1/2 a days traditional seminar training!
The majority of people who took part in this survey believe training makes a difference to performance but if you have any doubts you will be interested to know that 97% of our clients confirmed that new business increased as a direct result of using our new business series!
