Sam Palmer and Yu Peng Lin, "The Impact of Specialization on Recruiter Productivity in the Staffing Industry”, under review, August, 2022

Abstract

The United States Staffing industry has seen tremendous growth since the 1990s to the point where in 2019, the market share eclipsed $150 billion. While the magnitude of the staffing industry seems large, the amount of competition has increased exponentially. With fear of becoming commoditized and diluted through the influx of competition, industry leaders have begun to look for new ways to adjust their recruiter development to increase market share on local and national levels.

The concept of specialization in the staffing industry started by focusing on industry-related job openings. However, as the market became more competitive, the clients began to diversify their staffing vendor partners. Thus, it has become imperative for staffing companies to adapt to a dedicated specialized delivery model to increase market share and revenue.

This research seeks to understand if specialization has the intended impact on recruiter performance. By analyzing recruiter-level panel data from an IT staffing company, we found that specialization models have a positive impact on recruiter productivity. The influence is, however, statistically insignificant.  This is due to the fact that with 2021 being the adoption year, the true impact of specialization may be partially captured by the economy re-opening post the COVID-19 pandemic.  In addition, the real effect of implementing a specialization model may take a few years to materialize.  Therefore, we expect to observe a much more significant impact in subsequent years if the data becomes available.
