What is RPO?
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a solution whereby all or part of a company's permanent or direct hiring needs are outsourced to an external provider.
As a RPO provider, TRS Workforce Solutions (TRS WFS) take primary responsibility for your partial or entire recruitment process through a dedicated Project Management Team (PMT) and talent acquisition team.
Furthermore, a RPO solution works as an extension of your HR function to develop a solution that delivers your specific staffing requirements. TRS WFS is technology agnostic, which means we work with your existing HR systems or implement a technology platform that fits your requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions on RPO Solutions
What's the difference between RPO and a staffing agency?
Staffing agencies work transactionally on individual job orders, RPO is strategic and ongoing. With TRS Workforce Solutions' RPO model we get embedded into your hiring process and become true partners in your growth, delivering consistent quality and better cultural fits.
How is RPO different from a Managed Service Provider (MSP)?
MSP manages your contingent workforce (contractors, temps, freelancers), RPO focuses on permanent hires who become full-time employees. RPO is about building your core team with employees who'll grow with your business.
What are the benefits of choosing RPO for recruitment?
RPO typically delivers 30-50% reduction in cost per-hire and 25-40% faster time-to-fill without compromising quality. You get scalability, market intelligence, cutting-edge technology and enterprise-level expertise without the overhead of maintaining large internal recruitment teams.
What is full-cycle recruitment and why does RPO do it best?
Full-cycle recruitment means managing everything from job requisition to new hire's first day and beyond. RPO excels because of focus, process, technology, and data-driven decisions that internal teams juggling multiple responsibilities can't match.
How quickly can RPO implementation start and show results?
Most companies see results within 30-60 days of RPO implementation, full optimisation within 90-120 days. The beauty of RPO is your hiring doesn't stop during ramp up - we work alongside your existing processes for seamless continuity.
What size companies benefit most from RPO services?
RPO delivers value to all sizes but is most impactful for mid-size companies (100-1,000 employees), high growth companies, companies with specialism, companies with seasonal fluctuations. It's not size that matters - it's having strategic hiring needs that benefit from specialist expertise.
How do we keep your company culture during the hiring process?
We spend time understanding your values and work environment, then develop culture specific interview questions and assessment criteria. Our recruiters become ambassadors for your employer brand and final hiring decisions are always made by your team.
What reporting and analytics do we provide?
TRS Enterprise Solutions provides real-time dashboards with live metrics, quality assessments, market intelligence, ROI analysis and custom reporting. All reporting is available 24/7 through our client portal with monthly business reviews.
What if we're not satisfied with RPO performance?
Our partnerships include Service Level Agreements with clear performance metrics, regular reviews and flexible contract terms. We're committed to continuous improvement and fixing issues rather than making excuses because we view every partnership as long term.
