With the Singapore economy in recovery after the pandemic, many companies from various industries are looking to hire again. There has been a rise in demand for niche talents in various positions like digital marketing as more companies are looking to digitalise their business to prepare for a potential future pandemic scale shutdown. As there were also layoffs during the pandemic, many positions are currently vacant that requires filling urgently. The solution to this surge in demand has seen many companies turn to recruitment agencies in Singapore for mass hiring events.

Cases of Efficient Mass Recruitment Campaign

During the quarantine, the largest hit industries were the F&B, hospitality and retail. Many companies in these industries were forced to close and unfortunately, some had to do so permanently due to the inability to sustain during the lockdown. However, with the easing of lockdown measures and the store opening again, the companies in these industries are experiencing a shortage in manpower. They’re desperately looking to fill front line positions such as service staff, servers, retail assistants and cashiers.
Another industry that saw a spike in demand for manpower was the healthcare industry. With hospitals operating at full capacities, the need for admin and ad hoc employees skyrocketed – resulting in a mass recruitment for the healthcare industry. There was also a spike in demand for temperature takers and lockdown enforcers to ensure that covid safety measures are adhered to by the public.
These companies usually participate in mass recruitment drives or turn to online job portals to advertise their vacancies. Post-pandemic, the Singapore government has also rolled out a country-wide job platform for businesses to advertise their jobs for free. As it is a government initiative, the platform was widely adopted by the masses, businesses and job seekers alike.

Some companies prefer on ground recruitment events to engage personally with potential job seekers and conduct on ground interviews. Events also gives employers the ability to better elucidate their company’s benefits, goals and culture to attract relevant talent.

The process of mass recruitment requires time, money and effort – which many companies do not have the resources to perform. Which is why many turn to mass recruitment companies like TalentSpot to strategise, organise, implement, execute and meet hiring KPIs.
