Struggling to find the time to manage your business and looking for new staff? Well fortunately for you, there’s a solution! Recruitment agencies are designed to operate as your personal recruitment specialists, and to help you focus on what you do best. Here’s our top 7 reasons why you’ll love working with Find Recruitment.

Whilst many employers are confident that they can source their own candidates, they can forget that sifting through resumes, calling people and trying to match ideals to the role is a time-consuming process. When you use a recruitment agency, you’re placing your business needs directly into the employment market and getting the support of a specialised consultant. Think of it like the iceberg theory; when you search for yourself, you just see what’s above the surface, when in theory there’s so many other elements involved, which we have the expertise to navigate for you.

1.    We’re industry-regarded experts.

As experts in the kiwi recruitment market, we’re the go-to for hundreds of kiwi businesses and thousands of jobseekers. Find is a culmination of decades of experience. Director-led teams are powered by professionals who know their market inside-out and are often speaking to the best of the best when you reach out. We are routinely invited to speak on panels, to present to corporations, and publish a well-received State of the Market on a quarterly basis to keep our clients and candidates informed on the happenings of the recruitment market. 

2.    We tailor-make our approach to hold your business as the central focus.

Rather than expecting you to fit into our system and way of working, we want to work with you as partners and get to know your style and flair. We will have a meeting with you to discuss your needs, get to understand your business culture and team requirements and really get into the fine detail about the expectations of this role. From this, we will build a custom-approach that keeps you at the centre and will report back to you with the plan of how we’ll deliver on your needs.

3.    We’re award winning and are routinely nominated as finalists by industry bodies.

We’ve been around for a while now and have gotten our process down to a fine art. In recent years we have put a lot of focus into our business and into the various aspects that make us different. This has seen us awarded for recruitment excellence, celebrated for industry involvement, and acknowledged for our work in Diversity, Equity & Inclusivity. At time of writing, we are currently up as Finalists for Outstanding Progress in Diversity, Equity & Inclusivity for our work around our menopausal policy, period kits, rainbow inclusivity and parental leave. Although we’re proud of these nominations, we’re even prouder to be putting these amazing initiatives in place to celebrate our people. 

4.    No-KPIs is one of our key USPs.

On the surface, No-KPIs may seem like a nicety, however it makes a much larger difference than you’d expect. We run our business on a trust-based model, whereby our people don’t have to worry about meeting ridiculous quotas or any claw-back schemes. As a result, they have genuine connections and relationships with their candidates and with you as clients. This allows them to pair you up with the best candidates, rather than just sending you 20 random CVs to fulfil a target number. When you receive a candidate from Find Recruitment, there is often a long history of interaction between consultant and candidate that offers confidence that the CV you’re reviewing is a genuine culture and skill fit.

5.    We provide certainty when you’re unsure of who to hire.

If you find you’re in a position of knowing you need to hire, but unsure where to start of who/what to look for, then this is where we can provide significant benefit for you. Starting with a conversation, we’ll understand your wants and needs of the role, and look into what your current team culture is, so we can keep this in mind throughout the search. From there, you’ll be presented with candidates who we believe will be the right fit for the job. We will help you look into the value they can add to the company, where they can help business thrive, and how much they will cost. Let's face it, money is a key issue as almost every employee will have an impact on the bottom line (and this impact usually increases with seniority) which is why making the decision to work with a recruitment agency is a decision that will pay for itself in the long-term.

6.    We cover a broad range of industries, and our consultants have experience in working in these industries.

Take a consultant like Chris Martin from Auckland Corporate. Chris is an expert when it comes to Risk and Compliance recruitment and has prior experience within the industry. From his experience, and with his network connections including at industry-bodies such as RIMS, he is in-touch with the leading candidates in the market. Chris is just one example, however, of what we offer across our business. Each team has industry-leaders with their own personal experience in the field. When you work with Find, you’ll be assigned to a consultant who best encapsulates the experience you need, to deliver you with a recruitment experience unlike any other. So whether you're working with Chris, or Sam, or Sheronika, or Kendall, or Nick, or simply anyone in our team, you'll be in safe hands along the way!

7.    We have the experience to recruit at all levels.

Whether you’re looking for the critical staff to support your business practices in Sales & Marketing, Payroll or Accounts Payable, or looking to fill a missing C-level member for a Chief Financial Officer or Chief Executive Officer role, we have experience across the board to make this happen! Our teams all bring an extensive wealth of knowledge, and work in sync alongside each other sharing knowledge and insights on the regular. This means that regardless of if you’re working with a consultant or a business director, talent manager or senior consultant, or with our Corporate or IT teams, you'll benefit from across the board industry experience.
