Our process

Our recruitment process occurs across three stages.

1. Define and search

We establish clear parameters on what makes an ideal candidate for a particular role based on a well-defined client brief.

Validate candidatesWe authenticate all the information on the candidate’s resume. The main aspects we look at are career history and achievements. We then organise an initial internal face-to-face interview and present the list of the shortlisted candidates to you.

3. Execute and review

Finally, once you have identified a candidate to be the best fit for the role, we conduct some final checks, negotiations and manage all necessary documentation until the candidate's placement in your company is finalised.

• Cultural fit assessment and offer management

• Final feedback
  The candidate is briefed on the salary offer, including contractual aspects and the final feedback sent to you.

  The successful candidate is put under a placement care program to undergo continuous development awaiting placement.
