FAQs
How does your recruitment process work when filling a vacancy?
Our recruitment process is designed to be comprehensive and can be tailored as required to your needs. We start with a consultation where we engage with you to create a detailed job brief and gain a thorough understanding of your business. This initial step allows us to effectively communicate your opportunity to potential candidates. Leveraging our diverse candidate attraction resources including video advertisements, sponsored national job boards and exclusive access to our candidate talent portal, we cast a wide net to find best-fit candidates
Following this we curate a shortlist of candidates who not only meet the specific job requirements, but also resonate with the values and objectives of your company. We ensure these candidate profiles come to life with a face-to-face, video or telephone meeting.
We take care of the entire interview process, from preparation to acceptance of offers or rejections. Throughout this process, we keep potential employees updated at every stage to ensure your brand is represented in the best light, regardless of the outcome. Our end-to-end services ensure a seamless, successful recruitment journey for both clients and candidates.
How long does the recruitment process typically take from start to finish?
When working with a client exclusively, it takes on average 30 days from receiving a job brief to a candidate accepting your offer.
What information do you need from me to start the candidate search?
Once we start working with any new client (or if we haven’t worked with you for a while) we will send over our most up-to-date terms for you to review and agree upon. We also offer a no-obligation two-week advanced exclusivity trial for permanent vacancies and just one week for temp or interim vacancies. This means if you are not happy with our service after this time, you won’t be tied into working with us exclusively for the rest of your campaign.
Can your recruitment agency assist with both permanent and temporary requirements?
Yes, we specialise in both permanent and temporary recruitment solutions. Whether you need to fill permanent positions or require temporary staff for short-term projects or seasonal demands, we have the expertise and resources to support your business.
What happens if a placed candidate doesn't work out?
In the unlikely case that a placed candidate doesn’t work out, we provide a six-month replacement guarantee for clients working with us exclusively. This means we’ll collaborate closely with you to understand the reasons behind the candidate’s performance and promptly initiate a replacement process to ensure your recruitment needs are fulfilled effectively.
Moreover, our terms and conditions include provisions for a partial refund of agreed funds if a candidate doesn’t fulfil the agreed-upon three-month commitment.
