I’m big on surveying the environment, looking at the data, and then figuring out what needs to be done and doing it. Want to know what venture capitalists think is looming large in 2012?

If you’re like most employers, you spend an inordinate amount of time on payroll, recruiting and other human resource (HR) tasks at the expense of what truly matters—growing your business. There is little, if any, disruption to existing employees when the relationship is established, and at no time is employee “leasing” involved in the agreement.

Business owners invest so much of their time, money and energy into building their organization’s success,” says Jeff Sorrells, senior HR specialist at Insperity. Health care and retirement plans are now a common incentive and any growing business not offering these benefits are at a major disadvantage,” says Sorrells. This allows larger companies to offer their employees more robust benefits plans at lower out-of-pocket costs than most small businesses could ever hope to match.

The recent downturn led many organizations to scale back their workforce, but as things turn around, now they are looking to hire. As a result, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is on the rise.
