RECRUITMENT CAPE TOWN:
Hi, I am Roodt Griesel, owner of West Coast Personnel in Blaauwberg.
On the question of which recruiter to use, consider the following: you need to find the best staff member that your business can afford. For that, you need an experienced recruiter to find you that person.
Work with a recruiter that understands the pressures and needs of your business, someone that has been there themselves. Find a professional that you can trust to promote the best interests of your business for the duration of the recruitment process.
A good recruiter will sit with you, get a feel for your business and assess your specific needs. There are bookkeepers and bookkeepers, if you understand what I mean, and they will have to establish which one will suit your business best. If they do not do that, they are most probably not good recruiters.
They will sit down with you and discuss their terms of service. A good recruiter will act on your commitment, as they will invest many hours in your recruitment needs and would expect a reasonable return on their investment.
Find someone that has good processes in place. They know where to source the best candidates and then spot the really good ones once they are there. A good recruiter will have a track record for finding good people. Ask them about this.
A skillful recruiter will guide you through the recruitment process and iron out the bumps on your behalf. Do not expect everything to be done for you, though, as you form an integral part of the recruitment process and, you will have to live with the appointment.
Above all, a good recruiter will minimize your risk by properly interviewing the candidate, performing personality and credit and financial checks, when necessary, and discuss the pros and cons with the candidate with you. All experienced candidates come with their attributes and challenges.
A good recruiter belongs to an association like APSO to guarantee a recourse, and honors their replacement guarantee, to give you peace of mind.
We would like to think that West Coast Personnel offers that kind of service. How can we help you?
