Employee turnover in the hourly-hiring workforce is high, competition for talent is enormous, and hiring can be a difficult and time-consuming process for both the candidate and the local manager. Employee referrals are the most statistically significant source of hires with 47% of referred employees staying in their role for three or more years.

“The key to maintaining top talent in your workforce is attracting and hiring the right people, exactly when you need them,” said Jim Buchanan, CEO, Cadient Talent. “Our partnership will further help us meet our client’s needs by filling their applicant pipeline with better-qualified candidates that meet the needs of their company.”
