PeopleScout Recognized for Industry Expertise With Five 2022 Recruitment Marketing Awards

Posted on by jpatel

UK-Based Awards Program Gives Distinction for PeopleScout’s Innovation and Creativity in Their Work with Clients

LONDON – December 2, 2022 – PeopleScout has been named a five-time winner in the 2022 Recruitment Marketing Awards, in recognition of their success in film, copywriting, art direction and recruitment effectiveness on various client projects.

Since its launch in 1980, the Recruitment Marketing Awards have recognized excellence and professionalism in recruitment marketing and talent management. A total of 28 awards are given annually. One winner is selected in each category, after careful review by two judging panels.

“Winning five awards this year is an exceptional testament to our team’s expertise and innovation, which have been matched by our client’s open-mindedness and trust,” said PeopleScout’s UK Managing Director, Jonathan Porter. “I’m delighted that the creativity of our work has been recognised by industry peers.”

PeopleScout’s winning entries include:

Best Recruitment Effectiveness for Heathrow Airport
Heathrow Airport was struggling to fill positions, compounded by long security clearance times delaying hiring decisions and flight demands increasing in the wake of the pandemic. The PeopleScout team was brought in to recruit 400 officers over six months, which quickly grew to over 1,000, and to significantly increase the diversity of candidates. Heathrow was able to hire the staff it needed and improved diversity, with 48% of new hires being female. Judges called this campaign “a clear winner showcasing recruiting into a difficult role at a difficult time.”

Best Film under £5,000 for Westminster City Council
With a new employer value proposition aligned to the theme “All kinds of extraordinary,” this film was used to help Westminster City Council demonstrate the inspiring work of its employees and the difference it makes to local authorities. PeopleScout took a storytelling approach, with the film following the personal journey and tragedy of one individual. Judges found the campaign “well scripted, well executed, raw and authentic, which resulted in its effectiveness.”

Best Copywriting for Kent County Council
This recruitment campaign sought to dispel misconceptions about the potential of adult social care as a career choice, seeking to establish it as the vibrant, vital and meaningful profession that it is. The judges called the script “very powerful and emotive.” The film was viewed by 410,000 people and Kent County Council’s career site received 8,500 campaign clicks, resulting in 300 applicants. However, the real results were cultural, empowering care workers to have pride in their work and recognise the value of their achievements.

Best Film £5,001 to £15,000 for Kent County Council
With a challenging target of recruiting 100 adult care workers amidst a hiring crisis within the sector, Kent County Council turned to PeopleScout to help demonstrate the potential of this career. The film was used to tell real stories of real people working for the council, focusing on the themes of bravery, dignity and pride. Kent County Council was able to fill the 100 vacancies, in part due to what judges called “effective messaging with a proper call to action.”

Best Art Direction for London Borough of Hillingdon
PeopleScout was tasked with demonstrating the potential for people to make a positive impact by working for the London Borough of Hillingdon, as well as showcasing local attractions. To achieve this, the tagline “That’s the Hillingdon feeling” was adopted. The visuals and accompanying text focused on both individual roles and more general opportunities, outlining the potential for people to grow with Hillingdon. The client’s goal was to make the borough “stand out in a big, bold and unmissable way,” and the suite of imagery did that, while also meeting the borough’s core vision of putting its residents first. The judges felt this campaign “showed good use of their own people, properties and landscape.”
 
PeopleScout’s UK-based talent advisory practice provides world-class expertise in employer branding, recruitment marketing, assessment, DE&I consulting, talent market insights and more. Their passionate team of problem solvers—from psychologists and creatives to strategists and technologists—offer a depth and breadth of experience gained over 30 years of creating award-winning strategies for clients across the globe in every sector.

PeopleScout’s UK-Based Talent Advisory Team, TMP Holdings Limited (“TMP”), Wins Agency of the Year at 2020 Recruitment Marketing Awards

Posted on by skatz

Company also recognized for Campaign of the Year

London – November 9, 2020 – PeopleScout won four Recruitment Marketing Awards (RMAs), including Agency of the Year and Campaign of the Year, at the virtual awards ceremony held on October 29, 2020. The RMAs recognize excellence in recruitment marketing and talent management.

“PeopleScout won this award as they worked with phenomenal creative output and overall met their customer’s needs,” said the RMA judges in regards to the Agency of the Year award.

“We are incredibly honored to be named Agency of the Year and to receive recognition for our work,” said Andrew Wilkinson, Executive Leader, Group Managing Director – EMEA and APAC. “As the pandemic continues to reshape the way we approach recruitment marketing and employer branding, the importance of effective and innovative candidate communications has never been greater.”

PeopleScout’s global reach and local expertise continues to make an impact on the talent acquisition and recruitment marketing industry. The company offers Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and Managed Service Provider (MSP) services as well as talent acquisition solutions including assessment, early careers, candidate experience and employer branding. The combined power of its solutions enables the company to stand out from its peers with innovative design and a focus on delivery.

The award for Campaign of the Year was for PeopleScout’s work with its client, a motoring company in the UK. The goal of the campaign was to attract the attention of large numbers of potential passive candidates who might never have considered a career with the client.

“An excellent campaign that turned an employer brand into a live experience and was unlike no other,” said the RMA judges. “The live event received public interest and was a bold campaign with impressive results from applications across four targeted sections.”

This is the second consecutive year that PeopleScout won top award honors at the RMAs. In 2019, PeopleScout won the Grand Prix award for the company’s creative approach to recruiting nurses in Greater Manchester, as well as awards for employer branding, recruitment effectiveness and video. In 2020, PeopleScout also won four coveted Recruiting Advertising Design (RAD) awards, including Work of the Year as well as in the Innovation, Use of Social and Out of Home Advertising categories.

PeopleScout Identified as a Leader in all Categories in NelsonHall’s 2020 NEAT Vendor Evaluation for RPO

Posted on by skatz

World’s largest RPO provider named a global leader for the third consecutive year

Chicago – October 27, 2020 – PeopleScout has been named a Leader, the highest rating, in every category in NelsonHall’s global 2020 NEAT Vendor Evaluation for RPO. The categories in which PeopleScout was recognized as a Leader are: Geographic Footprint and Scalability, TA Transformation, Innovation in Services, Candidate Experience, as well as an Overall rating.

Nikki Edwards, Principal Analyst, HR Technology & Services, NelsonHall, said: “PeopleScout has expanded and enhanced its portfolio of RPO models and services to embrace the challenges of hiring talent in 2020 and beyond. Further, it has upgraded its multifunctional Affinix platform, leveraging many of the latest technology/tools available in the marketplace to enable its clients achieve a competitive edge.”  

NelsonHall NEAT for RPO Chart 2020

NEAT is NelsonHall’s vendor evaluation and assessment tool, offering companies around the world a comprehensive assessment of vendors’ offerings and capabilities. The NEAT for RPO enables buyers to strategically evaluate vendors across a range of criteria and business situations with a specific focus on candidate experience, innovation and global delivery.

“It is an incredible honor to be named a Leader in all categories in NelsonHall’s 2020 NEAT vendor evaluation for RPO,” said PeopleScout President Brannon Lacey. “When COVID-19 emerged, PeopleScout was quick to pivot and enhance our solution offerings in a way that met the changing needs of our clients and kept people safe without sacrificing an exceptional candidate experience. As we look to the future, we will continue to focus on supporting our clients’ talent programs with the right balance of human-touch and superior talent technology throughout the entire hiring process.”

Positioning as a “Leader” on the NEAT vendor evaluation is based on a combination of analyst assessments and feedback from RPO vendor clients. Interviews with RPO vendor clients focus on measuring the vendor’s ability to deliver immediate benefit as well as evaluating the vendor’s suitability to meet future requirements. 

Highlights from NelsonHall’s evaluation of PeopleScout on the 2020 NEAT vendor evaluation include the company’s:

  • Broad range of RPO, and more widespread, talent solutions, including those established for working in a COVID-19 world
  • Talent Advisory services, notably employer branding, assessment, recruitment marketing and the future of work consulting
  • Global footprint across North America, EMEA and APAC through the 2018 acquisition of TMP Holdings LTD and previous acquisitions
  • Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion, notably minimizing bias in assessments and selection methods plus its established Veteran Talent Exchange platform
  • Technology innovation, notably its comprehensive set of enhancements to its Affinix platform in 2019/2020
  • Repositioning as a Total Workforce Solutions organisation, establishing a unified approach to operational delivery and technology platforms

PeopleScout continues to be a leader in RPO, MSP and Total Workforce Solutions. Earlier in 2020, PeopleScout was named the largest RPO provider in North America and a Leader in Everest Group’s Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2020. Also in 2020, PeopleScout was named a global leader in HRO Today’s Baker’s Dozen Customer Satisfaction Ratings for MSP and RPO, as well as the No. 1 RPO provider in APAC for the second consecutive year and a leading RPO provider in EMEA.
