A TIP
For any company looking to bring highly experienced talent into their business, creating part-time roles is a clever solution. Particularly in a tight talent market. There are a huge number of skilled and experienced people in the workforce who can’t, or prefer not to, work full-time (over 20% of the Australian workforce currently works part-time).
This can be a particularly effective approach for start-up organisations, who need deep expertise to set themselves up for success, but don’t yet have the budget to hire these experts into full-time roles.
A QUOTE
'By actively targeting part-time workers, SME's and start-ups can attract a more diverse workforce whilst accessing a range of benefits that would otherwise elude them.'
– Capability Jane Recruitment
