Permanent Placements

Considering the impact a new member of staff will have on your day to day operating procedures, it is vital to make the right choice. No matter how well your organisation is run, the wrong person will damage your business and your reputation. When employing a permanent member of staff, there are two major tasks to be performed, firstly - attracting the applications, and secondly - finding the best candidate from amongst those applications.

In many ways, the first part of this procedure is the most difficult to accomplish well. The right person for the job will be out there, but if you only advertise for staff as and when you need them, you can't be sure of finding them. Even if your ideal candidate is actively looking for employment on the exact day that your advertisement appears, how, without spending thousands of pounds placing your advertisement in all the newspapers and trade journals, can you be sure they'll notice you?

We are dedicated recruitment professionals, constantly running advertising campaigns in many media. We are in regular contact with industry professionals, many of whom, when looking for their next position in the industry, will come to us. With many high quality applicants on our database, and many more joining us each week, we are confident we can provide you with the candidates you need.

Although the financial outlay dedicated to the second part of the recruitment process - evaluating the candidates - is usually small compared to the expense involved in ensuring adequate advertising coverage, it demands a heavy investment of time and energy. The time spent reading CVs, responding to them, organising the logistics of bringing candidates to you for interview, conducting these interviews and checking references thoroughly can increase your workload considerably, it will certainly give you less time to devote to your core responsibilities.

At Prime Recruitment these tasks are part of our core responsibilities. Our office systems are specifically designed for efficient handling of this part of the recruitment process and all of our consultants have experience and skills gained by successfully dealing with hundreds of placements.

We know how to find the right people for you, and therefore will invest the time and money needed to advertise and recruit for your vacancy without expecting any payment for our services until and unless you decide to employ one of our candidates.
