6 B s of talent strategy BUY BUILD BORROW BOUND BOOST BOUNCE
Common O&G talent strategy Varied by emphasis/reliance on 3 primary sourcing channels: BUY Using recruitment agency suppliers to source and engage permanent hires. BUILD Establishing a pipeline of directly sourced talent via an in-house team or an MSP/RPO partner. BORROW Using recruitment agency suppliers to source contingent labour. NOTE: Many CO s in our industry run separate sourcing channels with permanent hires managed by HR/Resourcing and temporary/contingent labour being managed by separately via HR or Purchasing
It is our opinion that: The EU O&G industry is often dependant on agency supplied contingent labour (the borrow resourcing channel). The O&G industry has a further opportunity to maximise value from the build resourcing channel. Many in our industry in the EU are too dependant on external agency PSL suppliers to enhance their build channel for permanent hires. It is too often the case that the buy, build and borrow resourcing is not delivered by a single cohesive resourcing infrastructure.
