"What a wonderful application process, best I have ever came across in the entire time I have been submitting applications online, whoever developed the system is a genius, everyone should use the same system, so fast, simple, yet gets what is required."

"I would like to say thank you for assisting us with our recruitment needs for the last year, it has put us in a much better position to fulfil our driver supply.

During the period of the campaign, we had a 25% success rate for all individuals who apply via this process.

Your role as our Account Manager was invaluable to our needs and you were always available when required.

I would have no hesitation in using Employment Office again for our needs."

"I used a marketing campaign with Employment Office and received quality candidates within one week.

The marketing team was very talented with wording the advertising, my Account Manager was very helpful and the Employment Office team always did their best to make sure the campaign was a success. I had more than plenty candidates to choose from and all were of a quality standard.

We will be using Employment Office again."

"The ad campaign worked very well for us and after only 2 weeks to have a successful applicant after months of trying to find people through other mediums were fruitless is fantastic.

I highly recommend this product."

Pearman Media and Associates

"We will definitely use Employment Office again. Having been in a position of spending more than we wanted on more traditional recruiters we thought it prudent to try Employment Office. We were pleasantly surprised as we felt we had greater input and the quality of the candidates better matched our company culture. The candidates themselves also commented on the process being more to their liking. Neil was very proactive and ensured we were happy throughout the campaign."

On Line Opinion

"Employment Office has been superb. They offer a service which takes the trouble out of advertising without grabbing the large fee, and thanks for nothing, that employment agencies tend to. They hold your hand, because that's their job, rather than thrust a candidate down your throat because that's their commission. They charge a fee for service, not a fee for success, which is much more likely to give the result you want."

"I would like to thank you and your organisation for filling this position
for us. I found Employment Office very professional and helpful in putting
together this recruiting campaign.

We realised from the start that this position would be difficult to fill as
it encompassed a wide variety of fields. Our request for somebody with a
background in Mining, Mobile Equipment Maintenance, IT and Training was not
an easy one, but through skilful targeting and advertising structure your
team has delivered us the one in a million candidate that can tick all of

"Finding the right staff can be a stressful time for any business simply because it requires allocating precious resources when your team really needs to be at full strength.

Challenge

  • Print Systems Australia, a premier Queensland-based offset printer, needed a way to recruit quality staff members without having an existing employee devote hours of time towards short listing and interviewing applications. When PSA advertised roles themselves, hundreds of applicants were contacting the company via phone, fax and e-mail. PSA needed an effective method to track all candidate activities – there was no single location to house applications.
  • PSA didn’t want to lose all control over the hiring process, but needed someone to ‘do the leg work’ and present a quality shortlist of candidates to choose from

Solution

  • PSA purchased an Employment Office recruitment campaign, which meant that as well as writing a position overview and advertising the role, all applications were lodged through Employment Office’s Candidate Management System. All applicants answered the same first-round interview questions and were stored in the same online system (which was accessible via any computer with Internet access).
  • Despite the fact that over 100 applications were received, no one at PSA was required to devote time to short listing or contacting candidates, as PSA also enlisted the Employment Office Shortlisting Service. For a flat fee, Employment Office rated all applications as they came in, phone-screened and behaviour-tested the highly ranked, and performed reference checks. At the end Employment Office presented the top five candidates to PSA, who performed final interviews and made the ultimate hiring decision from there. PSA had full visibility into the shortlisting process.

Results

  • Highly effective recruitment campaign, which PSA maintained full control over the whole time
  • All applications stored in one place, and available for future reference (PSA may even choose to hire more people from this candidate database, down the track, for no extra fee)
  • No internal time wasted sorting through or interviewing inappropriate or unqualified candidates
  • Role filled!
