The Recruitment Process Outsourcing Association, a professional association serving the RPO industry, announced a new board for the 2013-2014 year. Board members include:

• Mike Mayeux of Novotus, president
• Joel Capperella of Yoh, vice president/president elect
• John Younger of Accolo, immediate past president
• Matt Schreyer of Instigate, secretary/treasurer
• Mark Lukens of Method3, at large board member

The association aims to offer peer support and thought leadership. It also aims to educate the market about RPO. Membership in the nonprofit organization is comprised of RPO service providers.

“The RPO space is incredibly underserved by the ‘analyst’ that serves it,” Capperella said. “Not only are the buyers increasing the sophistication with which they approach evaluation of the services, the services themselves are becoming more segmented to meet the demand of a changing market. As such, I firmly believe that we as practitioners must be committed to providing as much information and value to the entire ecosystem so that the discipline serves to advance the workforce related strategic objectives of even the smallest organizations seeking to take an outsourced approach to their recruiting needs.”
