FAQs

  • How does your agency source candidates for business support and admin positions?

    Our recruiters utilise a proven recruitment strategy to find suitable candidates. This strategy includes searching our database, advertising on job boards, receiving candidate referrals, attending networking events, and more.

    We have established recruitment agencies for business support and admin roles in several major cities across New Zealand including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. We also have an International Candidate Management team that taps into our worldwide talent pools.

    Our recruitment approach is targeted and data-driven, thanks to our in-house market intelligence team. For positions that are more challenging to fill, we provide talent mapping and premium advertising services

  • What is your process for vetting and screening potential candidates?

    Our meticulous evaluation process is designed to perfectly match business support and admin candidates with their ideal roles. It begins with a preliminary screening call by our business support recruitment consultants, followed by an in-depth interview to understand their past experiences, motivations, and career aspirations. To prevent any unconscious bias, we anonymise resumes, placing emphasis on abilities over personal history.

    We utilise various testing platforms that allow us to customise our screening process, which may involve aptitude, behavioural, and technical assessments.
