Where do you find employees?

[HR Solutions]

Thanks for the guideline. That sounds like an awful lot of money though. What if a hired person does not survive the probation/the first year or runs away before the probation/year is up?

We offer a 3 month guarantee. Normally if a person leaves after that it is due to the company,s fault, therefore if we have all done our homework properly it is up to any company to keep their staff fir a long term

I found it best to read the fine print before accepting any service. Can anyone actually guarantee an employee will stay?
What if the employee gets a better job trough a friend?
What if the employee gets ill or have a serious accident?

There are just some of the things I would consider before forking over between 12-15 percent. I say this because you have to consider the “possibility” that you may end up paying for something that can be easily lost due to circumstances that truly is beyond your control.

I would recommend ask the tuff question make sure you get the right answers before you sign anything.

Hi HR,

Reading Tec0's post, may I suggest you delete "guarantee" from your mind and replace it with "warranty" in general communication. There is an important legal difference between the two, and I expect what you were trying to communicate here was effectively the latter.

Yep you are right - but the "guarantee" I was referring to is due to many factors - We don't just match and place - we do extensive work on the candidates to "match" them to the correct employer by various means. Our"guarantee" I was referring to is once we have found the right person for the company we will give your money back if he leaves within 3 months. This obviously is a reflection of how sure we are of the match. Dave you yourself will know how difficult it is to find staff that are qualified etc etc etc.

tec I do not expect you to understand the concept of recruitment agencies. You have not understood in the past and still do not understand.

Normally when we place a person that earns R100 000.00 per month a lot of work goes into it, the company is large and understands that they cannot just find that person who is that qualified etc etc and it is time consuming for them and they know that they can rather be doing their own job themselves that they are themselves good at and leave it to people that know how to find people and have the means.

Just for clarity Terry Hopper's IP address shows he is from India. So read South Africa shown as his location with a pinch of salt.

@ Terry I would suggest you be honest with us and tell us where you are from and why you joined the Forum, BTW I am not trying to chase you away.

South Africa is a country, not a place. Is it true that people stating their location as the USA or other countries are usually spammers?

Quite a few, yes.

But we also get some pretty genuine folk from international, so try not to prejudge just on the location they provide.

What tends to be a far more reliable indicator of looming mischief is what their IP tells the Admin team, and quite often the first few posts.

Agreed,

Most car manufacturers/suppliers and services use the term warranty as there really is some liability connected to “guaranteeing” something
