BestJobsUSA.com has unveiled its 10th Annual Select 50 Diversity Employers of Choice with great success and interest from employers and candidates across America.

To become a member of the Select 50 Diversity Employers of Choice, companies must declare their committment to hiring candidates from a diverse range of backgrounds. They make this declaration, not because they want to comply with some law, but because they understand the power of varied perspectives.

In return, members of the Select 50 Diversity Employers of Choice receive a year-long, ready-made, multi-prong strategy to market their recruitment messages to tens of thousands of minority candidates, all of whom are driven back to the members’ corporate profiles and career sites.

We couldn’t be happier to announce this year’s list. For more information, and to read all the profiles, visit the 10th Annual Select 50 Diversity Employers of Choice.

A Letter from a Client

We just received this wonderful reference letter from one of our clients, and we thought we’d share it with you. For more information on how RCI can help you with all your talent management and RPO needs, contact us today!

To Whom It May Concern:

I do not know where to begin, as so many positive things come to mind when I think of RCI and the success of our partnership.

I began my search for an RPO by examining five different organizations. I narrowed it quickly down to two. After more diligence it was abundantly obvious that RCI was the way to go. From Mike’s enthusiasm and experience to Sam’s meticulous nature and technological expertise to Teresa’s tenacity and energy, RCI doesn’t miss a beat.

RCI provides a comprehensive service by becoming a true partner and seamless extension of your organization.

I have years of recruitment experience ranging from 3rd party to contract services to in-house models. I was concerned that I wouldn’t find an RPO that truly “got it” and understood the intangibles of successful recruiting. My concern has been put to rest. RCI hits the mark everytime!

By the end of week one, we already conducted 15 successful interviews and converted that into five successful hires! Allow me to remind you that we recruit allied health professionals. This is NO easy task in this industry.

Clearly I can go on and on about RCI and its amazing team! Should you have any questions or would like to speak further, I am happy to oblige. You can reach me at 800.314.2640.

Treat yourself well and have a wonderful day,

The workers in Michigan are some of the best trained, best educated, and most motivated workers in our nation. And though they’ve gone through trying times over the last decade, their eagerness to work hard and work well has never wavered. Despite their best efforts, Michigan workers in health care, engineering, logistics, retail, sales, service, and every other sector struggle to find a stable employer who knows how to take advantage of their skills and experience.

With so many of these talented professionals out of work or working below their capacities, there’s no better time to market your openings to this eager workforce than right now. And no better way to market to them than with RCI’s Operation: Detroit.

Qualified candidates in your industry are looking for the right employer, and the time to present your openings is now. Call (561) 277-1202 to get started, or see this webpage for more information.

Operation Galveston

The University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, TX has been forced to lay off 3,800 qualified healthcare employees in the wake of Hurricane Ike. Most of the jobs will come from John Sealy Hospital, which is the island’s only hospital. Several of the campuses’ buildings were flooded by up to 8 feet of water, with the hospital’s kitchen, blood bank and radiology department taking the worst damage.

Unfortunately, the Galveston job market cannot handle this influx of healthcare employees, which means that most, if not all, of the 3,800 people included in the layoff will be forced to relocate. To assist in this time of great crisis, we’ve teamed up with The Houston Chronicle to publish recruitment messages from healthcare employers across the nation. If you have any opportunities for this highly trained and highly experienced pool of candidates, now is the time to tell them.

3,355 qualified candidates are waiting for you

Over the last few years, fifteen hospitals have closed their doors in New Jersey. Now, four more are closing, making New Jersey healthcare workers available to move for new jobs out of the state. This is your chance to fill those hard-to-source healthcare positions while providing a new career direction for qualified candidates.

Here are the details:

  • 820 healthcare workers from Union, NJ
  • 635 healthcare workers from Paterson, NJ
  • 700 healthcare workers from Westwood, NJ
  • 1200 healthcare workers from Bayonne, NJ

To help you take advantage of this unique opportunity, we are partnering with the Newark Star-Ledger to provide out-of-state opportunities to all the workers affected by this recent rash of layoffs. The Healthcare Jobs Nationwide careers section will be published Sunday, October 28, and again on November 4th, 11th, 18th, and 25th.

In case you’re wondering: The closing hospitals are not the only reason these candidates are looking to leave New Jersey. New Jersey has one of the highest costs of living in the US, making relocation a more attractive option than ever. An article in the Star-Ledger reported that “Residents are leaving New Jersey at three times the rate they were five years ago” This could have something to do with high housing costs, or the state’s generally high cost of living, but whatever the reason, people are leaving New Jersey.

And with an ad in the Healthcare Jobs Nationwide careers section, you can make sure that they come to you.

For more information on how your organization can reach these 3,355 qualified healthcare workers, contact us today.

Your Employer Brand: The Bottom Line of Top-of-Mind

According to recent research, employer branding may be more important for your organization than profits. It lowers recruitment costs, shortens time to fill, retains the right people, and provides your company with a long-term competitive edge. As Nicola Hunt, co-founder of Management-Issues.com, writes, “The value of companies…is more than three times the value quoted on balance sheets, and the difference is to do with the reputation, brand and emotional capital of an organization.”

The point cannot be stressed enough. “Chief executives used to be driven by marketing, sales and financial numbers,” says Simon Barrow, author of The Employer Brand, but “the past three years have seen them realize that the attraction, retention and motivation of their best people has become their number one determinant of performance.”

Further research shows that 49% of American workers indicate that their companies’ brand or image played an important role in their decision to apply for a job at their respective workplace.

With such results, organizations have to ask themselves if they can afford not to focus on their employer brands.

We have said this before, and we will say it again: the most important initiative any company can take, regardless of their industry, is learning how to effectively hire and retain quality employees. And this research demonstrates that branding is a key component of that fundamental initiative.

Some organizations may claim that they’ve never needed to develop a strategic employer brand before, but Watson Wyatt research shows that “the very same models of hiring, developing and retiring employees that worked so well over the past decades could backfire if continued into the next.”

It is time to face the facts. Your company needs to begin the strategic development of its unique employer brand and it needs to begin now. A strategically developed employer brand will not only make your job easier, but it’ll make your organization more successful in the pursuit of its mission.

In Part 2, I’ll explain how you can begin the process of effectively branding your company, but if you don’t want to wait, feel free to explore the Employment Branding services provided by RCI Recruitment Solutions.
