What we hear….
“For some roles I have to go
to agency – but when I do I
want it too be as painless as
possible!”
“We want to focus on
direct recruitment
not managing agency
contracts!”
“It takes us 3 months to on-
board a new agency by
which time the candidate
has gone and the manager
is livid!”
“I need to get this agency
on quickly as they have got
the best candidates for this
role but I don’t have an
agreement!”
“I issue roles to agencies
based on gut feel and who
ever calls on the day -
frankly I’ve got no idea how
they are going to
perform?”“My PSL is not fit for
purpose – but it’s too
much effort to redo it!”
“Managing agency
invoices and rebates is a
reconciliation nightmare!”
