Episode 20: The threat RPOs pose to the staffing industry (and how to negate it) with Andre Mileti

On this episode of the You Own the Experience podcast, Robert Mann is joined by Andre Mileti, the VP of Enterprise Solutions right here at Able.

Mann and Mileti discuss a new type of threat the staffing industry is beginning to face: that of overreaching RPOs. Previously a rather siloed industry, market forces and the availability of technology have seen RPOs taking brave new steps, many of which are on turf previously owned by the staffing industry. Here we explore what this means for staffing, and how this invasion might be mitigated or stopped. 

Other topics covered include:

• The role that PEOs play in helping RPOs expand their offering
• Why RPO expansion can be a compelling prospect for large corporations
• The ethics of cheating at chess on a first date
