5 reason to use a recruitment agency for your next hire
Recruiting new employees can be a costly and time-consuming endeavour for many companies to attempt on their own. When seeking top talent, human resources departments can struggle to fill positions with the calibre of candidate that the role requires and will help drive business forward. Using a recruitment agency saves time and money and can relieve pressure on companies whilst also helping them find the best possible candidates.
1. Massive Time Save
The recruitment process is a lengthy one. It requires a lot of time and man hours. As a recruitment agency we advertise all of our clients roles online, and extensively vet all applications we receive. We also resource candidates independently of this, searching through hundreds of CVs on prominent job boards to find the perfect candidate. We then pre-interview all potential candidates, examining their CVs and use carefully crafted questions and interview techniques to properly assess each applicant. Many hours of work go into every single candidate before their CV even reaches your desk, to ensure that you only receive those who are excellent and highly suitable for the job. Using an agency who already have an established process for recruitment and extensive network connections can also massively shorten the timeline of finding and hiring a new employee.
2. Existing Database Of Strong Candidates And Job Boards
Recruitment agencies have already established databases of excellent candidates to draw from for every new job vacancy. We receive new candidates every day, keen for new opportunities who are carefully selected based on their specific skillset for each role. Job Boards are an essential part of the recruitment process. We have specialist recruiter accounts with market leading websites such as Reed and Total Jobs which we use not only to advertise your vacancies but also source potential candidates. These sites are a priceless resource and one that most companies do not have their own access to.
3. Industry Knowledge And Expertise
