Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)?

RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing) is a strategic partnership model that functions as an extension of your company's HR and recruitment department.

While traditional recruitment agencies focus primarily on "introducing candidates," RPO delivers results by "optimizing the recruitment process," consistently strengthening your internal HR capabilities from hiring through to labor management.

[Background] Why is RPO in demand now?

Intensifying Competition for Talent

With the rapid growth of the digital economy in the Vietnamese market, the competition to acquire highly skilled IT professionals and bilingual management talent is intensifying. Although over 50,000 IT graduates enter the market every year, demand continues to outstrip supply.

Why RPO is Chosen

To fundamentally solve this issue and secure high-quality talent while keeping costs down, the demand for RPO, which covers everything from practical recruitment tasks to daily labor and HR consultations, is rapidly increasing.

The Threat of Hidden Recruitment Costs

The "hidden recruitment costs" caused by hiring mismatches and early turnover are enormous.

  • For highly skilled talent in the $20,000 to $30,000 annual salary range often sourced through recruitment agencies, the hiring cost (referral fee) alone consumes approximately 20% of their annual salary ($4,000 to $6,000) all at once.
  • When factoring in the opportunity loss during the time it takes for a new employee to reach full productivity, as well as the re-hiring costs in the event of early turnover, the actual damage borne by the company is immeasurable.

Cost Comparison: Recruitment Agency vs. RPO

When hiring multiple candidates, the fixed monthly fee model of RPO generates significant cost benefits compared to traditional recruitment agencies.

2 Hires 8,000 USD 2,000 USD 6,000 USD Saved
3 Hires 12,000 USD 2,000 USD 10,000 USD Saved

* Simulation values: This is an estimated model calculated assuming 4,000 USD per hire for a recruitment agency (assuming a 20% placement fee on a 20,000 USD annual salary), compared to a fixed monthly cost of 2,000 USD for RPO.
The more people you hire, the higher the cost-effectiveness of RPO becomes.
