Recruitment Services

Permanent Recruitment

Dixon Appointments’ structured approach to recruitment has proven effective over many years. We plan strategies with our clients, establishing timelines and commencement dates. This approach includes:

• Clearly-defined milestones, timelines and KPIs for permanent recruitment projects
• Competency-based recruitment
• Statistical monitoring: long-term placement retention
• Practical enhancements to our core methodology

Effective job analysis is the very foundation of successful recruitment, which is the reason we place so much emphasis on getting it right. So, we employ the following techniques:

• Job Analysis: To influence outcomes, our consultants are trained to complete a job analysis even when professionally produced position descriptions are available.
• Recruitment Matrix: The transparency of our processes creates a partnered approach between manager and consultant, who work together to achieve the best result.

Each department within our business is staffed by consultants who understand the sector in which they recruit, and who use their expertise to provide specialised assistance to both clients and candidates.

Temporary Staffing

A quality temporary staffing service needs a defined structure and a disciplined approach that keeps clients informed at all stages of the process. Our experienced team manages an extensive database of pre-screened temporary staff and continually recruits new people.
From beginning to end of each temporary assignment, our consultants maintain continual contact with both client and candidate to ensure that performance issues are identified and that client satisfaction is achieved. Our service is delivered within strict timeline KPIs, which include:

• A structured 10 step recruitment process
• Clear timeline and communication KPIs for service delivery
• A retention strategy to ensure completion of assignments and continuity of staff
