Working smarter, not harder
Key time-saving tips and resources
- Prioritise your Care Friends candidates. Here's why:
- On average, you will only need 5 Care Friends referrals/candidates to make a hire. Compared to internet job boards, where you will need to sift through up to 83 CVs, no shows and candidates who aren't the right fit to get a hire.
- 0-15% new starter churn at 90 days, compared with 43-50% sector average. Candidates staying longer means you can take a more targeted approach to recruitment.
- Divert part of your recruitment spend to your own staff.
