What does a recruitment agency do for your company?
A recruitment agency does the time-consuming part of hiring for you. Instead of posting a job and sorting through hundreds of CVs, you brief Olive Resources once. We search for candidates, check their skills and experience, and send you only the people worth interviewing.
- Fill roles faster with candidates we have already vetted
- Reach passive candidates who are not applying to job ads
- Lower the risk of a bad hire with tests and reference checks
- Free your HR team to focus on people already on board
How does Olive Resources find the right candidate?
Our recruitment process has five steps. Most clients receive a shortlist within 7–15 business days.
-
Understand the role
We meet your hiring manager to agree the skills, experience, salary range and culture the role needs.
-
Search and source
We search our candidate network, job boards and LinkedIn, and approach passive candidates who are not actively applying.
-
Screen and assess
Every candidate is interviewed and tested for skills, and has their experience and references checked.
-
Shortlist and interview
You receive a short list of 3–5 matched candidates with notes. We schedule and coordinate your interviews.
-
Offer and onboard
We help with the offer and negotiation, then follow up after joining to make sure the hire succeeds.
Why companies choose us to hire
