Are you finding yourself restricted by an outdated Preferred Supplier List (PSL) in your recruitment process? While a PSL is intended to streamline hiring and improve candidate quality, in reality many organisations end up stuck with agencies that may no longer meet their needs.
Time to reassess?
Nichola Davies, Manager at Headstar, spent 14 years heading up internal recruitment in multiple different organisations and kept coming up against the same issues when it came to the PSL.
In her latest video, Nichola explains that if your PSL consists of a long list of agencies inherited from previous management, it might be time to evaluate its effectiveness. Are your current partners delivering value, or has the PSL become a convenient excuse for limiting your options?
Flexibility is Key
Instead of being tied to a rigid PSL, consider establishing clear expectations with your existing agencies. This approach allows for greater adaptability, enabling you to explore better options if your needs are not being met.
Check out Nichola’s video below to learn how thinking beyond the PSL may just surprise you with the results.
