How we recruit superstars

Video job advertisement

We take full advantage of this unique and highly effective form of candidate sourcing in order to reach the right candidate at the right time.

We post our videos on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook. They are posted on these platforms 10-20 times, based on relevance. Our videos typically receive over 1,000 views within the first 24 hours.

Job advertisement

We constantly refresh, rewrite and reformat our job advertisements to optimise the quality of applications received. Our approach is aggressive - we post around 20 advertisements for every permanent job. Advertisements are posted on:

Job boards - Seek, Adzuna, Glassdoor, Indeed and Jora
Social media - LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter
11 Recruitment's website

On average, our advertisements receive over 100 applications and perform well above the market benchmark for Seek, shown in this graph.

We use DISC, which examines the following attributes:

Dominance - accomplishing results, the bottom line, confidence

Feedback

"The service that I have been receiving from Christian is professional, friendly and most importantly person.

You don't find it everyday that a Managing Director takes time out of their busy day to interact with clients on that level - a true sign that the customer does come first.

Keep up the good work Christian and team."
