How can you engage with candidates and clients in the current landscape? Bullhorn presented a webinar with Marketplace partners <\/span>Odro<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Textkernel <\/span><\/a>and <\/span>Cube19<\/span><\/a> on the subject recently (you can watch it <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

All the experts agreed: COVID-19 has had a profound impact on everyone, professionally and personally, and adapting to the landscape as a business has been a learning experience for agencies.\u00a0 It has also made it clear companies need the ability to be flexible with their staff and their operating model to set the strategies in place to do more in the post-pandemic world. Questions like \u2018If we were starting again in this climate what would we do?\u2019 and \u2018Are we agile enough to surf the current waves?\u2019 are high on the agenda and, as there will not be one day we wake up \u2018Post-COVID\u2019, the \u2018fizzle out\u2019 means we all need to be prepared right now.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here you can find a summary of the three questions to ask yourself in the near term to ensure you can emerge even more successful than you were pre-COVID-19.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you get more from a lower cost base?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Pre-COVID-19, success for many was considered to be desks and headcount, now it’s about doing more with less – as published in a recent Gartner research <\/span>study<\/span><\/a>: <\/span>\u201cThe organizations that will come out of this crisis in leadership positions are those that quickly move resources to emerging areas of opportunity while competitors are still ducking for cover.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In order to prepare yourself for whatever the \u2018new normal\u2019 looks like, consider your technology choices. For example, automation drives efficiency, and with limited resources for most agencies right now, efficiency has never been more important. Or you may want to invest in communication solutions to build your relationships. Evaluate your costs and business goals to determine which solutions will provide you with the most ROI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
