Talent Acquisition vs. talent recruitment

You may get lucky and find you acquire amazing talent simply through the mission statement and online presence of your company. However, if you aren’t actively recruiting talent through strategic advertising and interview processes, you may feel disappointed in the lackluster results.

We offer an international search process and an in-depth interview & assessment process for a very competitive price. Recruitment and selection of the right person for the job is vital to your company’s successful growth. If you don’t have a structured plan, this process can prove time consuming and expensive.

Recruitment and selection in talent management is the first step in successful team-building and reputation management. You need to enter the hiring process with extreme caution. Issues that could arise include:

  • Unanticipated expense for selecting the wrong candidate
  • Unexpected legal hurdles
  • Violation of country or local HR laws

However, there’s no need to panic. We’ll help you find the best candidates for your employment needs and will ensure every step is taken in careful compliance with country and local laws. When we help you with talent management and recruitment, we’ll dot your HR Is and cross your legal Ts.

We can help you with your one-off appointments or major recruitment drives. Whether you need us to complete the entire talent selection and recruitment process, or you just need help understanding talent acquisition vs recruitment and selection, we’re here to help — no job is too big or small.

A Case Study in Talent Recruitment Management

Recruitment and Selection – Medical Devices

European HR Solutions worked with an international medical devices company to fill the vital role of VP of Global Sales and Marketing. We were tasked to recruit talent and follow through until the position was filled. It was important that we attract only the best and most qualified candidates.

Here are some of the steps we took to ensure success:

Created a job description

We consulted the board and executives of the company to focus on the qualities and resume needed for potential candidates for the position of VP of Global Sales and Marketing. By drafting up a job posting and taking advantage of targeted advertising, we were able to attract and recruit top talent.

This also enabled the company’s directors to concentrate on their day-to-day operational responsibilities. If they’d taken on the recruitment and added to their already high work level, they may have been distracted from the successful completion of both.

Selected candidates to interview

We then advertised the assessment methods that would be used in the talent interview process, including the presentation, structure of the interview, and the interview questions we would use. This allowed candidates to come prepared and solidified the recruitment of the best candidates.

For example, if an unqualified candidate somehow got through the screening process, they may have canceled the interview after recognizing that they would not deliver in the interview process. We then briefed the company board on our selection process and communicated with all potential candidates.

Created the service contract

We then drew up the offer of employment to the final candidate and went over the service contract documents with the soon-to-be VP of Global Sales and Marketing. We went over the confidentiality agreement with the recruited talent, and had them sign all related terms of employment.

Saw the process through to employment

The great news is after a panel selection, the final candidate accepted the VP position. The VP has seen continued success in their new role and the company has grown exponentially since they came on board.

Board members had full involvement in the recruitment and interview process. However, they didn’t have to take on menial, onerous, or time-consuming tasks that often go hand-in-hand with that process.

We drew up the job qualifications, executed targeted marketing, and set up the interviews. The board was asked to contribute feedback on every step, and we had fantastic, open lines of communication to ensure we were taking the action they desired.

    Christina Lambourne
    Europe HR Solutions have been vital to the HR journey of our business. To begin with we had two small acquired businesses and one newly founded company which all needed some structure and a lot of knowledge as a good foundation. Inez’ team in UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands have been hugely supportive and were fundamental to put in place the solid policies and the processes we now have in place. Their highly professional approach in combination with true empathy and flexibility was a breath of fresh air. We had a true partnership for over 18 months now and know we can rely on the team in day to day as well as critical and more challenging situations. Europe HR Solutions have supported us with recruitment, general HR advisory, policies, TUPE, Coaching, redundancies, and everything in between. As the CFO for the business, I’m eternally grateful for all the very practical and human support I have received to date and look forward to continuing this relationship.

    Europe HR Solutions have provided exceptional service consistently over a number of years to Genea Biomedx in Europe. As a business head quartered in Australia with no inhouse HR support on the ground in Europe this has been invaluable, not only during the start-up phase but also as the business has expanded. I highly recommend them.

    Katie Rink
    Inez and her team at Europe HR Solutions are a delight to work with. I first met Inez back in 2015, and at that time, she helped me navigate hiring my Company’s 1st employee in the Netherlands. In 2024, I found myself in a similar situation, and once again, I needed guidance to help navigate employment law, this time in France and Germany. Inez was quick to respond, easy to schedule time with, and she did a fabulous job listening/learning about my Company’s current state and our need. Quickly, she connected me with the country specific consultants from her team, who were both personable and knowledgeable, and I look forward to the next time I get to reach out to them again. Inez and her team are amazing resources that I am lucky to have as part of my network.
