Want to save about $8,000 on your recruitment spend?


Now - let me start by saying that we are not a Recruitment Agency - far from it! We recruit for our clients for an hourly rate and there is no success fee. This typically saves businesses up to 70% off their recruitment costs. To you and your candidates, we look and feel like your very own internal recruitment team.

We made one of our clients very happy today. Over the years he has become used to paying recruitment agencies on average $8,500 + GST per placement - but then he started using Employee Matters for recruitment and he gets great service including:
  • the same experienced corporate Recruitment Partner each time
  • the ads are written for his approval, based on his criteria
  • the candidates are carefully screened all candidates are treated with respect 
  • and every application is responded to, whether ultimately successful or not

 One time he came to us with a role, we found two candidates that he really liked and he had to make a tough decision - but this was handled with care and sensitivity.

Two months later, with his business expanding, he needs another employee. We rang the candidate that had placed 2nd the first time around; he was still interested, was interviewed again and offered the role. He is thrilled and so is the client, because instead of paying over $8k - he paid $500.

When I asked the candidate why he would reconsider a role that he was originally the 2nd choice for, he said "Tiffany was incredibly sensitive and caring but diplomatic and professional. She gave me detailed feedback and it made sense. She handled it in such a way that I was happy to hear this news from her. It was only the second time in my life that I have dealt with someone in recruitment that was supportive rather than just doing her job.” (Otis)

More of our clients are enjoying working with their Employee Matters Recruitment Partner, reaping the benefits both financially and through the ease of the process. They enjoy having an expert helping them make the right recruitment decisions.

Do you think that this model of recruitment might work for you?
