WHY DO WE HAVE AN ONLINE DATABASE?
A little lesson in how recruitment works:
Let me debunk the myth that recruitment agencies’ sole purpose is to find a candidate a job, that is (most of the time) not the case. Recruitment agencies are called upon by a client who is looking to hire a new person, and they find the perfect candidate for that position. They are the middleman.
Recruiters do, however, keep good CVs on record, so that if they get a job spec that matches one of those CVs’ particular skill sets, they will call up that candidate and ‘market’ them to their client.

HOW OUR APPLICATION PROCESS WORKS, AND WHY WE HAVE AN ONLINE DATABASE:
We have an online application which we urge all candidates to use and upload their updated CVs.
The reason why we have this online database system in place is so that we can form a comprehensive database, that draws information from candidate skill sets. Our consultants scan the online database for skills that depend on the job spec they have been handed. For example, if they are looking for an accountant they might search for ‘SAIPA’ (depending on the role’s seniority) and those with that accreditation will show up first in their candidate pool search.
If you upload your C.V. to our online database, we will only contact you if a client requires your skill set and you are considered.
The method we use for finding our perfect candidate is done using BOOLEAN STRING SEARCH.
This method brings up exact matches for the skill set we need, so always remember to put as much of your experience, skill sets and qualifications on your C.V.
APPLYING FOR JOBS ONLINE:
We also have a page on our website that showcases all our current vacancies that you can go through. If you find a position you know would be perfect for you, you can apply directly. Our consultants never leave you wondering, we will always let you know if you have been considered, or regretted.
Please be mindful of applying for jobs outside your skill set. If you are a graphic designer, try not to apply for an HR position. You will find yourself constantly disappointed.
