Our Process

Whether you require senior IT staff, management professionals or executives with a solid IT background, we can leverage our global network to find the right people for your firm or project.

As one of the top IT recruitment agencies in Australia, we leverage technology and automation to ensure not only the provision of top-quality applicants, but to create a candidate experience that uplifts your brands reputation as a top employer in the market.

We are flexible with our arrangements with our clients, and understand no two briefs are the same, but here’s a general overview of a typical engagement:

• Connect with us and brief us on the specifics of your IT talent requirements, including the position title, details of the job, duration of the project and other particulars
  
• We then come to an agreement and set a clear timeframe for us to identify and recommend the best-fit profiles for you to choose from
  
• We perform a multifaceted search, engaging local and global networks to identify diverse talent and create an initial list
  
• We undergo an extensive candidate validation process, including resume analysis and face-to-face internal screening
  
• We present a shortlist and reduce this down further to select the preferred candidates
  
• We arrange the initial interviews and take the candidates on a stringent preparation routine
  
• We meet with the client to discuss initial candidate performance and to take feedback and debrief. Often this results in re clarification of the scope, salary and objectives of the talent search
  
•  Final interviews are conducted
  
•  A fit-assessment is undertaken to ensure cultural fit, reference checks and the acceptance of the offer all occur smoothly
  
•  We provide onboarding support through a structured post placement care program to ensure the candidate is set-up for success from day one

How to choose an IT recruitment firm

If you’re looking to work with a leading IT recruitment agency in Brisbane, Sydney or other Australian cities, you need to have a set of criteria to ensure you make an informed choice.

• Collaboration & Communication: Finding the best-fit talent for your project or company requires collaboration and clear communication. Before coming to an agreement, you have to know that your recruitment partner understands your needs and is ready to work with you to achieve your objectives.
  
• Professionalism & Integrity: Ensure that you’re working with an IT recruitment agency that exhibits professionalism in all of their undertakings. When you are confident that your human resource partner has a great reputation, you can entrust your IT recruitment needs to them without reservation.
  
• Experience focused: Your brand perception in the job market can be easily tarnished by a recruitment partner that does not understand the importance of providing an exceptional recruitment experience.
