RPO / Embedded Pods

Hiring becomes predictable when it runs like a system — not a weekly firefight.

Xrillion’s RPO & Embedded Recruitment Pods plug into your Talent Acquisition engine as an extension of your team. We take ownership of execution: intake calibration, pipeline building, screening, interview coordination, candidate engagement, and SLA/KPI governance.

Managed recruitment teams

Recruiters + sourcers + coordinators aligned to your org.

Pipeline building

Always-on benches for critical & niche skills.

SLA/KPI governance

Weekly cadence, bottlenecks, fixes, and reporting.

Tiny truth: most hiring delays are not “talent shortage” — they’re process friction. We remove the friction.

drop-off prevention

Clarity wins: you’ll always know what’s stuck, why it’s stuck, and what we’re doing about it.
End-to-end flow

How hiring runs when an embedded pod is live

We turn “hiring activity” into an operating system: clear steps, owners, timelines, candidate communication standards, and weekly governance that actually fixes bottlenecks.

Step 1

Intake calibration

Scorecards, success traits, interview loops, comp bands, SLAs, stakeholders.

Step 2

Pipeline building

Always-on sourcing and talent mapping by skill cluster + geo + level.

Step 3

Screening & shortlisting

Curated shortlists with notes — signal over volume.

Step 4

Interview coordination

Scheduling, reminders, feedback chase, and candidate experience guardrails.

Step 5

Offer & closure

Offer risk signals, negotiation support, and joining conversion discipline.

Step 6

Governance & improvements

Weekly report, root-cause analysis, and fixes that compound.

What changes fastest

Scheduling + feedback + visibility

Most hiring delays hide in “small” operational gaps. We remove them first, then improve conversion and speed across the funnel.

Outcome: fewer stalled candidates, fewer escalations, cleaner decisions.
What we cover

Full-scope RPO with embedded ownership

You can choose full-scope or modular scope. Either way we keep one rule: no broken handoffs — handoffs are where timelines go to die.

Pod structure

What an embedded pod looks like (and how it scales)

Pods are sized by hiring volume + complexity. Start lean, scale responsibly. Add sourcing bandwidth, add coordinators, or split pods by function/geography as throughput grows.

🧠

Recruiting & screening

FAQs

Common questions HR & business leaders ask

If you’ve been burned by “vendor chaos”, these answers will feel… oddly calming.

Pilot plan
