Unique Internet Advertising

Look at sites like jobserve, jobsite, Monster and the like and you'll see just about every recruitment agency you could name, except this one.

There's a good reason for that too.

If all of the other agents are there, it means they are all fishing in the same candidate pool.

That means if you engage more than one recruiter, all you're going to get is a pile of duplicated CVs and the headache of fee disputes.



Lazy, Unmotivated Candidates

Many of the agencies subscribe to CV databases on these sites, but you have to ask yourself, especially now, what type of person loads their CV to a job site in the first place, for all to see?

These people aren't researching your company, they're just taking the lazy way out and hoping that a job (any job) finds them.

Chances are that even if you interviewed one of them, that they'd use a job offer as leverage to get a pay rise from their current employer.

And you're paying people to find candidates like that?

The Best Candidates Aren't Looking!

My approach is all about finding the candidates who aren't currently looking for a job.

Here's the typical profile I look for:

  • Happy in current job
  • No threat of redundancy
  • Never reads job boards
  • Very good at what he or she does
  • Probably unable to progress much further with current employer
  • Could be tempted out if the right opportunity comes along

That type of person is a better prospect than those who throw their CV online without thought. They are also more reliable.

Your choices as a hiring manager are:

  1. Do it yourself
  2. Hire a recruitment agency and take pot-luck
  3. Hire a professional freelance recruiter
