OUR PROCESS

Here's how we find the right temps for your business

We've refined our recruitment process over 60 years to be efficient, transparent, and focused on your needs.

1

Discovery:

We start by getting to know your company inside and out. Tell us about your specific challenges, goals, and the skills you need in a temporary employee.

2

Targeted search & AI screening:

Using our extensive network and proprietary tech, we identify potential candidates. Our AI tool, Betty, helps us quickly sift through resumes and CVs, finding the best matches even if their experience isn't explicitly listed.

3

Assessment & interviews:

Our experienced consultants conduct interviews and assessments to gauge candidates' skills, experience, and cultural fit for your company.

4

Candidate shortlisting:

Once the assessment is complete, we present you with a shortlist of pre-vetted candidates who meet your requirements.

5

Offer negotiation & onboarding support:

If needed, we guide you through the offer process. We also provide onboarding support to ensure your new temp has a smooth transition into your team.

How can I be sure I'll get high-quality temporary staff through HRGO?
