Recruitment
We appreciate the fact that, the key to excellent business performance is the placement of right talent in appropriate jobs. We have facilitated the recruitment of a wide range of positions from junior management to senior level staff for both local and multi-national clients across various industries. Our understanding of our clients’ requirements is always critical to developing our work approach according to their specific needs. The application of our knowledge of the recruitment landscape and trends helps ensure that we recruit the right fit of candidates for client organisations. We specialise in the following:
Executive Search
To effectually meet your needs, we adopt any of the following approaches depending on your business circumstances:
§ Headhunting
This service is particularly beneficial for executive or highly specialised positions, where there is a shortage of high calibre candidates. The task of recruiting senior executives becomes less time consuming and a more rewarding experience that can enhance business outcomes and performance, when undertaken by experienced professionals who know the executive marketplace and, understand your business and industry.
The seniority and sensitivity of some appointments requires complete confidentiality. Leveraging our professional network/relationships and the experience of our search professionals, we will research a specific market sector to identify executives/professionals who are often in tight markets.
§ Database Search
To reduce time spent pre-screening to find suitable candidates, we maintain an in-house database of CVs from prospective job seekers. The job specifications of the position to be recruited are matched with the CVs from the database and the most suited ones are contacted and invited for preliminary assessment to ascertain their suitability for the position under consideration.
§ Advertising
IHR acknowledges the fact that an apt recruitment advertisement can attract desirable candidates. Should an organisation opt to recruit by advertising, we work closely with them to understand and define the role (s) as well as its context in your business needs and objectives. We employ a rigorous and thorough selection processes supported by well-positioned advertising in major print media where appropriate, to attract a wide range of candidates. Using our robust approach to candidate evaluation, including technical competencies, professionalism and organisational fit, we help you to identify and secure the optimal appointment.
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)
When it comes to staffing, a one-size-fits-all approach simply does not work. Our strategy is carefully tailored taking every possible nuance into account. We believe the key approach to achieving success is to operate with a “glocal” mindset, which involves a local company adopting a global way of thinking. With each sector we make inroads into, close attention is paid to all of the business and cultural nuances that exist between different companies.
Operating in this way requires more time and effort than the one-size-fits-all way of working, but the end rewards are far greater.
Leadership & Behavioural Assessment (On-line)
Typically, the success of any recruitment exercise is determined by the selected applicant who is expected to bring added value to the organisation with the complement of their skills and other characteristics. Our online psychometric/competency assessments form a core element of the hiring process which involves the administration and scoring of an employment test to determine a candidate’s skills and/or experience, leadership style and personality type based on the criteria for an open position (s).
