Customer Experience
Helping you every step of the way
Candidates meeting the client brief are approached
to determine their interest in the position. Selected
screening interviews are conducted within Johannesburg and Cape Town,
namely Western Cape at our expense to determine candidate suitability.
An in depth client brief incorporating an
understanding of our client goals, company
background and corporate culture, the position
and how it integrates into the existing structure,
a profile of the ideal candidate and finally the
key objectives that the successful incumbent will
be tasked with achieving. We engage with as
many stakeholders as possible in compiling this
information in order to gain an understanding
of not only the facts but also the essence of the
organisation and the requirements for the role.
The brief is the foundation of our success and
there is thus strong emphasis placed on it.
A process update is sent to the client on a weekly
basis, providing feedback on our progress,
highlighting potential targets and flagging possible
difficulties to ensure a successful outcome.
At the conclusion of this part of the process our
clients receive a shortlist of candidates that truly
represent the best that the market has to offer,
thoroughly screened for fit and motivation.
Shortlisted candidates are discussed with the client
in a face to face meeting when possible, with
details provided to the client including complete
resumes (in the candidate’s original format),
personal details, career summary, credit and
qualification checks and compensation details. A
consultant’s overview comparing the candidates’
credentials against the agreed brief is provided at
this point.
A fee of 25% of the annual guaranteed package is
applied and is charged on a retainer basis. These
retainer fees are set according to a mutually
agreeable estimation of the annual package for
the search position, and the following payments
will become due:
• 1/2 of the placement fee is payable on
signing off of the brief in order to commence
the search.
• 1/2 of the placement fee is payable on
placement of the chosen candidate.
We liaise closely with client and candidate
through the interview process and work to
resolve any potential obstacles to attracting the
preferred candidate. At this point, references
will be thoroughly and discreetly checked, any
negotiation of the contractual terms of employment
will be facilitated and the selected candidates are
prepared for counteroffer possibilities. We coach
the candidates through their resignation and
notice period and ensure a smooth transition into
their new role.
We offer an industry standard 90-day guarantee.
I am a small start up.
I will be focusing on your individual needs.
Big branded companies throw any candidate at you and lot of candidates at you
because they have thousands on their databases and their recruitment consultants
will overload you with cvs, hoping you choose the correct one,
thus wasting your time interviewing and perusing of cvs, whereas I provide the opposite.
