Nonprofit Recruiting on Demand

What is this? Idaho Nonprofit Center is offering an innovative recruiting solution for INC members. If your job posting alone is not garnering the kind of talent your nonprofit needs, INC is partnering with TalentSpark, a Boise-based recruiting firm, to help you find great candidates for your essential roles.
How does it help? Finding good people for your nonprofit is critical but you only have so much time in a day. On average, most recruitments take anywhere from 40-120 hours worth of work - a substantial amount of time taken away from the core mission of your organization. Nonprofit Recruiting on Demand gives you time back. We focus on finding talent while you focus on your mission. 
To partner with an experienced local recruiter from TalentSpark, reach out to get started.

What do you get? Your recruitment will be supported by an expert recruiter who can help you with the following recruitment steps: 
Searching:
  • Post on jobs boards and maintain all postings
  • Sourcing for candidates who have not directly applied

Screening:
  • Initial candidate interviews
  • Manage all candidate communication ensuring a positive hiring experience
  • Providing interview support including scheduling and interview guide creation
Consulting:
  • Conduct initial discovery meeting to assess and define job needs
  • Conduct debriefs meetings to help organizations make confident hiring decisions
  • Offer support including recommendations and verbal offers 
  • Recommendations on recruiting best practices
How much does it cost? This model gives you access to an experienced recruiter who can support the full recruitment process for a significantly lower cost.
  • Nonrefundable initiation fee: $750
  • Successful placement fee: $3,750
Example for hiring a $60,000 annual salary position: 
  • INC member nonprofit pays: $4,500 ($750 + $3,750)
  • Non-member nonprofit pays: $12,000 or more
    • A traditional recruitment fee is 20%-25% of the hired candidate’s first year’s annual salary
​What are the benefits of using a recruiting firm?
A successful recruitment requires a significant amount of time and planning. By partnering with TalentSpark, you can focus on your core mission and have an expert manage up to 85% of the recruitment workload including posting positions, candidate communication, initial interviews, and more. 

Not only are you saving on the workload, but many strategic roles will require more than just posting a job and passively waiting for applicants to apply. TalentSpark can conduct targeted reach outs to high potential candidates who are not actively applying to jobs giving you a higher quality candidate pool. 
What are Talent Spark’s areas of expertise? 
We partner with a broad range of mission-driven organization to identify and recruit the talent they need to serve. 
  • Arts and Culture
  • Environment and Conservation
  • Advocacy and Social Impact
  • Women and Girls 
  • Social Service 
  • Family Foundations and Philanthropy 
  • Youth Development and Educational Services
How can I justify the cost as a nonprofit?
​Because you are saving money during a vacancy –not paying their monthly salary– the cost of recruitment is less than you might think. Instead of viewing it as an increased cost, think of it as a budgetary timeline adjustment.

A typical recruitment is an average of 60 days making Nonprofit Recruiting on Demand not a cost at all but a reduction of your future savings during the vacancy. 

Lastly, you are saving the hourly cost of the internal employee tasked with managing the recruitment. The average recruitment requires 60-100 hours of time. Those are hours that could be dedicated to the mission of the organization while you get expert recruitment help from TalentSpark.
