Fixed Price Recruitment: How Does It Work?

Could you save money on your recruitment costs?
Most people think that it is expensive to use a recruitment company, so many small businesses opt to try and do it themselves to save money which is totally understandable. 


The recruitment industry is going through significant changes, with new technology and the accessibility of candidates through social media, there are now new ways of finding the perfect candidate without any interaction with a traditional agency.  


The idea of fixed price recruitment is not a new one, and there are a range of options available to clients looking to use this model.  However, these can still range from upwards of €800 per vacancy and this is still a stretch especially for a sole trader or small limited company.  


Expect Talent's mission is to change the way the world does recruitment, by helping small businesses to get hiring again with job creation at the forefront of everything we do.   This week sees the launch a brand new Fixed Cost Recruitment model to the Irish & UK market with prices starting from just €295.


So how does Fixed Cost Recruitment at €295 Work?


1.  Submit Job Description - The client submits their Job Description (if they need help in creating one we will create it for them)


2.  Post & Advertise The Job - We will submit the job to the most relevant job sites across Ireland & UK on the client's behalf


3.  CV's Received - We will handle all of the administration involved in receiving applications from interested candidates, saving the client lots of administration time


4.  7 Day Turnaround - After 7 days, the client receives one simple file with all CV's of people who have applied for the role


5.  Select, Interview, Hire - The Client then chooses from the applications and interviews the candidates themselves and hires who they want for the job.  Simple!


Fixed Cost Recruitment is easy, accessible and affordable. We are making it even easier for small businesses to engage in job creation and hope to help more job-seekers to secure employment in these challenging times.


For clients who are tight on time or want support on screening and interviewing we have other packages to suit.  There is a full list of packages available on this link.  It is time that the recruitment industry changed for the better, and this simple, easy pricing model can only help towards achieving this. 


We would love to hear your views on this and hope that you feel compelled to spread the word about this new cost-effective approach to an industry that has to change.
