What is recruitment process outsourcing (RPO)?

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is revolutionising the way organisations recruit. In practical terms, it involves outsourcing all or part of your recruitment process to a specialist consultancy, such as Alphea Conseil. Imagine having access to a dedicated team, high-performing tools, and a bespoke strategy, without the administrative burden. With RPO, recruitment becomes faster, more efficient and tailored to your specific needs.

Why opt for RPO?

The benefits of RPO for your business:

  • Bespoke solutions : Whether you need to manage high volumes or find rare talent , Alphéa Conseil provides tailored solutions.
  • A streamlined process : A standardised method for an optimal candidate experience and successful onboarding.
  • Quality sourcing : Access qualified talent , even in sectors experiencing candidate shortages.
  • Maximum flexibility : Adjust our services according to your ad hoc or ongoing needs.



The different types of RPO

Did you know that there are several approaches to outsourcing your recruitment? Three main models can be adapted to your needs:

  1. Full outsourcing : Ideal for large organisations with ongoing recruitment needs. We manage the entire process, from candidate sourcing to onboarding.
  2. Selective outsourcing : For businesses looking to outsource specific stages only, such as sourcing or interviewing .
  3. On-demand RPO : A flexible solution for your ad hoc needs or strategic hires.

Which type of RPO is right for you?

Here is our advice for finding the right RPO solution for your business:

  • Size of your business: Full outsourcing can be ideal for large corporate groups, whilst SMEs may opt for a selective or on-demand solution.
  • Recruitment frequency : Do you have regular hiring needs or only at specific times of the year?
  • Recruitment challenges : Difficulty attracting niche talent, managing high volumes, or a lack of internal resources?
