Hi Cameron. As much as I don't know a specific recruiter locally I think is amazing I do have a lead on a really cool service that helps the user control hiring and recruiting expenses. Have you heard of RecruitLoop? I met one of the owners a few months back and really fell in love with the concept. You can hire the recruiter directly by reading their profile and the hourly rate they charge. I have heard that for most companies this route is dramatically more affordable. here's a link to their site http://recruitloop.com/

Cameron, the more reputable recruiters will give you replacement guarantee during the probationary period. Make sure you do your own reference checks though. I find it to be a conflict of interest when the recruiter is doing reference checks on the candidates.

What kind of role are you recruiting for Cameron?

Hi Cameron,

These days with LinkedIn, Seek Profile etc, it is more economical to do your own recruitment unless you are busy or your company mandates that you use recruitment agencies to avoid nepotism.

Recruiters are useful if you wish to head hunt ie recruit staff from your competitors; or if you do not wish to disclose that you are hiring or the amount you are willing to pay.

Cheers

Hi Cameron, I can recommend a recruiter that I have used personally and one that supports my clients. She is fantastic very experienced, personable and offers great service at the right price with guarantees. I have never had issues with her services.

Hey Cameron,

I'm curious to know how it went and if you felt satisfied or if you tried something else. I am wondering when it is best for business to use a recruiter.
