We see it all the time on adverts places ‘no agencies please’, but any good recruiter is thick-skinned and doesn’t’ take offence to these blanketed barriers cast out over agencies that look upon us as all the same. We understand and we also know you are more than capable of recruiting for your own job roles.
We’ve said before – the pandemic has changed everything. March 2020 changed recruitment, and a year on it’s changed again. This season it’s become harder to source and find the right person for the job role.
Let’s explore why recruitment agencies have become a partnership with employers in 2021:
Access To Great Candidates
From one of the multiple benefits of using a recruitment agency, this has to be a priority! We have a fantastic relationship with our candidates, and some have been with us for many years as they progress through the ranks of their careers. As a result, we can liaise with those not actively looking for jobs and unaware that they have the perfect job opportunity awaiting them.
Understanding your niche
Do you ever feel like you have a Chandler Bing job role available (sorry if you aren’t a Friends fan – this analogy will make no sense). Sometimes your requirements might very niche, and you are limited with your reach. Using a recruitment agency, you’ll have access to a database you can call upon and screen for the qualification and experience you require.
Saving Time and Costs
Do you know how much time you spend carrying out job specification preparation, candidate sourcing, screening and selecting? Using a recruitment agency will reduce time and resources hours spent dedicated to recruitment.
We recruit every day, all day and love it! This means we can turn around and fill vacancies pretty quickly. You can leave us to it to deliver the right candidate leaving you to run your business and focus resources on your organisation.
Seasonal demand and Temporary solution
At the beginning of the pandemic, industries unexpectedly thrived almost overnight. To cope with the spontaneous demand and stay in the market, recruitment agencies showed up and supplied temporary recruitment solutions taking away the stress so thriving companies could not only cope with demand but focus on the expected operational needs of the business.
Job boards and Digital Platforms
Long gone at the days when you can place a job advert in the weekly press and find the right candidate. Today’s recruitment methods rely heavily on digital presence. If your website and social isn’t upto date or appealing, you could be turning off potential employees before you have had a chance to discuss your opportunity. We have full access to online job boards and our website is up to date and used for search optimisation for various job roles. Our online presence on Linkedin can also put you in front of the best candidates available.
Compliance
We are registered members of the REC, meaning we are recognised for our professionalism and the value we provide to clients and candidates and showcasing our dedication to compliance, ethics and competence. We’ve been members of REC from the off-set and annually undergo the REC compliance test to demonstrate our knowledge of the relevant legislation and uphold the ethics in the REC code of professional practice.
No Placement, No Fee
Recruiting through an agency means we source the talent and the negotiate terms. We’ll do it all without any charge for our time. Our fee only applies if a candidate is successful placed in the post.
