Staffing.org Releases Research Review for Recruiters Looking for Best Staffing Research

Staffing.org, a leading staffing research company, has released the Q2 Edition of its newest product, the Quarterly Research Review, to help recruiters sort through the best research from more than 125 major sources. This new product is intended to help recruiting executives easily access the critical information they need for benchmarking, proposal writing and strategizing.

The Q2 Edition provides summaries of selected, new research from: Creelman Lambert, KellyOCG, Aberdeen, i4cp, TATA, Mercer, Harvard Business School, Boston Consulting Group and Ernst & Young.

According to Staffing.org, “search engines can’t find the research CHROs want. Search engines are useful but not for locating good research.” It gives five reasons why:

• Most of what they provide are lists of materials: vendors’ content marketing pieces, magazine articles and blog posts.
• Corporate staffing activities lack a common language. Great material can be tagged in different ways, which each algorithm interprets differently.
• Search algorithms do a poor job evaluating quality. If a useful piece of research does not receive many hits, it will appear further down in search results.
• Algorithms also do not know how time affects relevance or which sources are the most reputable.
• And they can’t find material that is hidden behind a membership or registration page.

The Q2 issues is also included with a research membership with Staffing.org.
