HOW A NO-FEE RECRUITMENT SERVICE SOLVED ONE ENGINEERING AND CONSULTING FIRM'S HIRING HEADACHES

- 

When engineering and consulting firm RPS Tetra Tech was looking for staff at its wastewater and clean water sites, it quickly hit a brick wall.

"When we were putting adverts out in some local areas, we were getting nobody," says Julia, RPS Tetra Tech's talent acquisition partner.

Faced with the challenge of recruiting the right people for the job, Julia enlisted the support of Jobcentre Plus's no-fee recruitment service.

"Now we can be linked to other local Jobcentre Plus offices and through their support we can hit those areas we weren't able to attract anybody in before."

If you run a business or work in HR, you'll know how time-consuming recruitment can be, from advertising positions effectively to sifting through CVs. Make the wrong decision and you risk having to start again from scratch - which is where Jobcentre Plus's recruitment service comes in.
