Candidate Attraction & Retention

Our candidate attraction and retention strategies have evolved as a result of the shortages of experienced scientific and technical professionals, particularly in specific markets in Australia and around the world.  

Candidate Attraction

We have proven success in combining traditional methods of candidate attraction with non-traditional methods to access the most diverse possible candidate pool.

Techstaff has extensive experience in attracting the best candidate, whether it is for one placement or large scale projects.  We have proven success attracting scientific and technical candidates living in Australia, as well as those travelling to Australia on working visas.

Specialisation

Our specialist recruiters are known in the industries and disciplines in which they recruit.  We align ourselves with relevant industry associations and our specialist recruiters have extensive networks to assist you in finding the right person every time. 

As a result of our targeted brand presence, we attract a large number of our quality candidates through word of mouth and our industry reputation. 

Recruitment Campaigns

For hard to fill roles or large scale recruitment projects, we develop strategic recruitment campaigns to effectively meet client needs within specified timeframes.  Whether attracting local, regional, interstate, international or a combination of these candidates, we work in collaboration with our clients to develop effective solutions. 

After identifying your specific needs, we will recommend candidate attraction options to ensure that your business is resourced with the right people to meet your objectives.

Candidate Retention

A key component of our service is retaining our candidates to ensure your casual, temporary and contract workforce provides service continuity and quality. Successful candidate retention is essential for our permanent recruitment strategy. 

Permanent Candidates

We maintain regular contact with our database of professionals to keep informed of their movements and career goals. 

By building strong relationships with our candidates we are able to identify opportunities of interest and promote these to our candidates as they become available.  Many of our consultants have similar backgrounds to our candidates, which enables them to gain an in-depth understanding of the specific roles that our candidates may be interested in. 

On-hire and Contract Employees

We use feedback from our on-hired, contract and permanent candidates to improve and develop our services.  Survey results suggest that payment and communication are considered the most important element of our service by our workforce, and that our systems are effective.

As our on-hired and contract employees use the At Work section of the web site to access timesheets, we have launched our candidate care platform, At Work Options, to enable access to additional services and benefits through the web site. 

By providing fantastic job opportunities and establishing a sense of community, we are able to build long term relationships with our candidates. We recognise that everyone has different needs and have developed a variety of candidate care options to meet individual requirements including career development, advice, recognition and benefits.

Within each of our specialist recruitment brands, we have specific options to suit the needs of our on-hired employees.  To find out more about the At Work Options, click here.
