Employment Recruitment Services
This is the recruitment service to run with
Recruiting the right people for your company does take time, and there’s a significant amount of work involved.
Outsourcing your recruitment to The HR Dept will not only take the task off your hands — freeing up time to focus on growing your business — but will help you to recruit the best possible candidate and be legally compliant.
It might surprise you to learn that employment law applies even before hiring an employee. From the moment you begin recruiting, you are bound by laws on discrimination and data protection. This is where our HR professionals come in. Not only will they help you find the best talent, but also keep your recruitment on the right side of the employment law.
At The HR Dept, we offer a personal recruitment service that gets to know you and your business. We’re not a call centre a million miles away; our experts are locally-based and can even pop into your workplace for a chat about your recruitment needs.
The reward for getting recruitment right can be significant for your business’s success, as can the cost of getting it wrong.
Tailoring your recruitment needs
As with all our HR services, we’ll work closely with you to provide the level of support that is right for you and your business. Whether it’s the presence of an HR Dept professional at your interviews or us conducting the entire recruitment process for you, we’ll be on-hand to support you wherever you need.
The type of recruitment service we provide will depend on your business needs, though our broad offering includes:
- Job descriptions and person specifications
- Advertising the position in the most effective media for your business
- Psychometric testing for recruitment
- CV screening and shortlisting candidates
- Conducting telephone interviews
- Designing competency-based interview questions
- Conducting face-to-face interviews
Our recruitment professionals are experts in all the above. So, if you’re preparing to hire and need help to find ideal candidates, give us a call or drop us an email — we’d love to help.
Benefits of Working with The HR Dept
At The HR Dept, we understand that every client is unique, which is why we offer a tailored recruitment service to suit every client. We don’t do a DIY, copy and paste template like some.
We really get to know you and your business. This allows us to build long-term relationships with our clients based on trust, helping them achieve their recruitment plans short, medium and long-term.
We will work with you throughout the recruitment process, assessing the attitude, skills and knowledge of candidates to make sure that you find the right person for the role.

What are the types of recruitment?
- Internal Recruitment — is the recruitment that happens within the organisation. There are two primary sources of internal recruitment, and they are transfers, from another department or promotions. This type of recruitment can lead to a spike in productivity as the employee’s motivation increases. Because internal recruitment only considers existing employees, a potential downside is that not all the requirements can be met — meaning you might have to make sacrifices. Many companies insist that all opportunities are externally advertised.
- External Recruitment — is the recruitment that happens outside your organisation. The advantage being that you can attract a wider pool of candidates and build a more diverse workforce.
How does The HR Dept recruitment service work?
From the initial discovery meeting, we can manage the process right through to interviews and offers, or simply be a helping hand to sense-check your processes when needed.
Is there any need to use an HR professional for a start-up?
As well as helping hire employees through creating inclusive job roles, conducting structured job interviews and protecting businesses from lawsuits, HR professionals help start-ups and SMEs develop and retain employees by fairly compensating workers, creating training programmes and more.
