The Benefits of Using A Recruitment Agency For Your Business

In today’s highly competitive, candidate-driven job market, finding, and hiring the ideal job candidate is not as easy and straightforward as you would imagine. This is why more and more businesses are turning to recruitment agencies to help them recruit the right people for their open job positions.  

When needing to recruit new employees it can result in being quite a costly and time-consuming process for organisations, one that uses up significant resources, but rarely offers any guarantees in finding the right candidate. This is why, in many cases, employees need specialist support with their hiring strategies, whether it is because they lack time, resources, and expertise to recruit effectively, turning to a recruitment agency is more of an attractive proposition than ever.  

Many reasons why any company can benefit from using an out-of-house recruitment agency such as Swindale Parks Recruitment to fulfill their hiring needs include:

  • Faster hiring process
  • Extended reach for the best talent
  • Offer industry insight
  • Effective advertising
  • Temporary recruitment
  • Negotiate salaries
  • Interview/vet candidates

Faster Hiring Process

Here at Swindale Parks Recruitment, we can find candidates much faster than you can independently because we already have a vast talent network.  When choosing to use Swindale Recruitment you can tap into our large talent pool of already vetted candidates which significantly shortens your time to hire. You will not need to attract and shortlist candidates yourself as our team of recruitment specialists will have already done it for you and send you the top candidates for your consideration. Just give us your requirements and we do the rest!

Extended Reach for The Best Talent

As a well-established recruitment agency, we have access to the best talent available, this includes access to candidates that are actively seeking work, as well as talent that is currently employed elsewhere.  We have many connections within different networks with our consultants having the potential to leverage their networks to help connect you to the right people.

 

Industry Insight

The nature of our recruitment business enables us to reach out to the best available talent, current salary rends, benefit/bonus expectations, current hiring complexities, available skill sets, shortages, and much more. As we have a lot of contact with either specific or multiple industry sectors, we have a greater understanding of trends and potential candidates in comparison to the limited scope of in-house recruiters.

Each of our consultants is experienced in their own sector, meaning they can tailor their search and know exactly what to look for when outing candidates forward for your consideration. This takes the stress out of having to do this for yourself.

 

Effective Advertising

Recruitment agencies already have a head start when it comes to attracting the right candidates for the role advertised.  As we are constantly recruiting, we have long-term contracts with job boards across the UK which enables us to get your advert in front of the right people pretty much straight away.  Candidates also track down and register for agencies with a good reputation like Swindale Parks and will see vacancies advertised on our own website too. Other methods of effective advertising also include access to career sites, email sourcing, applicant tracking systems, LinkedIn, social media, and search engine sourcing.

 

Temporary Recruitment

Having the option to employ a candidate on a temporary basis is great if you want to recruit at busier business times of the year or for short-term projects etc to give your business flexibility for demand.  In addition to permanent candidates, Swindale Parks has a large selection of temporary candidates to resource from.

 

Negotiate salaries

There is nothing more frustrating than going through the whole recruitment process only to find out at the end of it that you are miles apart from your expectations.  Before entering salary negotiations, we can help you benchmark pay against other businesses in your industry. We can negate issues during the selection process by acting as a halfway house between you and your potential new employee to negotiate a mutually acceptable salary and package.

 

Interviewing and Vetting

When interviewing candidates, the benefit of using a recruitment agency is we can conduct interviews on an employer’s behalf, which can save time and money.  Even if it is just an initial first stage interview and you then prefer to complete the final interview stage yourself, whichever fits best with your business we can do. We can even advise what interview questions to ask relevant to each individual candidate. Swindale Parks also carry out all the relevant background checks on candidates who are invited to an interview, meaning your HR department does not have to.

 

Your Business Is Our Priority

Recruitment agencies can turn a month-long search into one that lasts just a few days.  Knowing when to use them effectively can not only reduce the stress of recruiting, it can help you guarantee a long-term hire.  Here at Swindale Parks Recruitment, we help businesses and organisations access the skills and experience of potential candidates they need, in good time without breaking the bank. 

Drive your business forward with us, finding the right talent is what we do best!
