Omni's Award-Winning Proprietary REA

The Resourcing Effectiveness Assessment (REA)

Are you looking to optimise your talent acquisition and enhance DE&I efforts? Omni’s award-winning innovation, the Resourcing Effectiveness Assessment offers a proven approach that has delivered results across various industries. 

The REA is a structured audit designed to assess and improve the effectiveness of an organisation’s recruitment process. Built around four pillars and 20 key elements, it covers essential recruitment metrics such as time-to-hire, candidate quality, and, importantly, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I). 

The process starts with a thorough review of current recruitment practices. This allows us to benchmark performance against industry standards, offering clients clear insights into their strengths and areas for improvement. Our goal is to provide actionable recommendations that result in tangible improvements, whether that’s reducing recruitment costs, improving candidate quality, or fostering greater diversity within the workforce.

Real-World Application: Ofcom Case Study

One example of the REA’s success is our work with Ofcom. As their RPO partner, we helped them attract niche talent to support the implementation of the Government’s Online Safety Bill. The REA framework played a key role in refining their talent strategy, improving DE&I outcomes, and reducing time-to-hire. 

This partnership resulted in an increase in diverse hires, notably increasing ethnically diverse job offers from 9% to 28%, while also reducing time-to-hire by 44%. The insights gained from the REA allowed Ofcom to meet critical recruitment goals and position their organisation for future growth. 

Judges at the TIARA Talent Solutions Awards said: Omni have successfully improved DE&I outcomes, optimised hiring strategies and achieved measurable results such as a 44% reduction in time-to-hire and significant increases in diverse hiring.

Why the REA Matters

Our REA is more than just a tool – it’s an ongoing process that aligns recruitment with broader business goals and determines just how effective your resourcing strategy is. By using data and benchmarks from our extensive industry research and CIPD collaboration, we help organisations continuously evolve their recruitment strategies to meet new challenges. This ensures that our clients aren’t just hiring reactively but are making strategic decisions that improve their long-term talent acquisition outcomes. 

While this recognition is significant, the true value of the REA lies in how it helps our clients achieve measurable results. We believe that by working together and using this framework, organisations will not only address current recruitment challenges but also lay the foundation for future success. 

For any organisation looking to optimise their talent acquisition and enhance DE&I efforts, the REA offers a proven, award-winning approach that has delivered results across various industries.
