Recruitment Services

While not every solution will include this service, recruitment consulting services and other wider-focus agencies will work with you to outline what you need.

From -discussing the ins and outs of an upcoming vacancy to deep-diving on what you’re looking for in a candidate, the smarter recruitment services always take the time to understand:

• Who you are as an organisation
• What makes you a great place to work for
• How you can present your workplace in the best light
• What’s required of the role you’re looking to fill
• Which kind of applicants you’re drawn to and why
• How you approach recruitment from a strategic standpoint.

Whether you’re looking to attract candidates from nearby or anywhere in the world, recruitment outsourcing services can help you:

• Create a compelling job advertisement
• Post the job description online on all the right job boards
• Market your vacancy and get it seen by the right candidates.

Writing a job description isn’t just about listing your requirements. Businesses need to sell themselves – their benefits, their culture, and their mission – to potential candidates. Recruitment marketing services know this and can help achieve that balanced message.

Another advantage of using a recruitment service is they’ll go out and proactively engage with potentially candidates online.

Many recruitment services companies will not only search online CV databases for promising candidates, they’ll dip into their own talent pools. For example, IRIS Networx recruitment services has a dedicated candidate database and send out recruitment newsletters to drum up interest.

While regional recruitment services will have stronger insight into regional job markets, the right nationwide recruitment services will still have the resources to get the job done.

When you’ve outsourced recruitment services to the experts, you don’t need to worry about wading through hundreds of CVs.

Recruitment services will often conduct an initial sift of CVs, filtering out unsuitable applications and putting promising candidates forward. This saves your in-house team hours of time per vacancy, and means your hiring manager (or similar) can focus on applicants that already fulfil their basic criteria.

Plus, if you’ve found the right recruitment support services, they’ll have all the insight they need to pick out candidates who are likely to make a great cultural fit, too.

We all know that arranging an online meeting with even a small handful of colleagues can get tricky. Unsurprisingly, organising formal interviews with dozens of external candidates and various internal stakeholders can feel like a full-time job in of itself.

When you’re outsourcing the recruitment process to a professional service provider, they handle all that for you. They’ll liaise with the applicant, the in-house hiring team (or equivalent), and the interviewers to confirm a date and time.

And if anything needs to change or someone has to cancel, they’ll take action to rearrange the call or make other arrangements.

As mentioned in the point above, professional recruitment services will manage almost all communications.

They are, essentially, functioning as a go-between for you and your candidates, which means:

• You don’t need to worry about inadvertently “ghosting” (neglecting to message) candidates during a drawn-out recruitment process
• Candidates receive a positive, professionally polished first impression of your company
• They will respond to candidates quickly and efficiently, answering questions and keeping applicants in the loop
• Experienced professionals will be on hand to have any difficult or high-stakes conversations, such as informing a candidate they’ve been unsuccessful or negotiating an offer.
