Making use of modern-day technology
In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint, we are breaking away from traditional recruitment methods where a client or a recruiter would travel hours to another location (sometimes in a different country) to hold recruitment meetings, or similarly, where a candidate would have to take time out to travel to different recruiters for registration purposes.
Making use of modern-day technology in recruitment and strategically placed floating consultants (who aren’t restricted to territorial locations) has allowed us to have wider reach and a global network of candidates. Using video conferencing for example, we have been able to land candidates for organizations all over the globe whilst saving our clients time and money and reducing the cost of having multiple office locations.
A digital revolution is changing the face of traditional recruitment! We’ve shifted to this 21st century ways of recruiting.
