Make Your Hiring Easier—with the Right Support

Recruiting the right person isn’t always straightforward—especially in a tight job market where budget and time constraints add even more pressure. That’s where a smart recruitment strategy, and the right support, can make all the difference.

In an exclusive webinar hosted by our partners at MyHR, Recruit Shop’s Samantha Worth will be joining Nicole Karagiannis to explore when and why engaging a recruitment agency can give your business a crucial edge.
This session will help you understand how (and when) to work with recruiters in a way that’s effective, aligned, and budget-conscious.

What you’ll learn

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Signs your recruitment process needs extra support.
  • When to consider engaging external recruitment agencies — by role type, market conditions, or internal capacity.
  • How to assess and select a recruitment partner.
  • What working with an agency typically looks like (and costs).
  • How to align your internal processes with external recruiters.
  • How to avoid common pitfalls when outsourcing hiring.
  • How to build a successful partnership between hiring managers and recruiters.

We’ll also share real-world examples of how businesses have used agencies strategically to fill critical roles.

Who should attend?

  • Business owners who need help making confident hiring decisions.
  • Business/finance operators who find themselves supporting recruitment efforts and want to learn more.
  • People managers with limited capacity to recruit effectively.
  • HR professionals looking to optimise recruitment in a competitive market.

If you can’t make the live webinar, we’ll email a recording to all registered participants, so make sure you still sign up (it’s free)!

We cannot recommend Miles at Recruit Shop highly enough. He was relentless in his efforts to help us find the right person and a good communicator throughout the process.

We worked with James from Recruit Shop who helped find very suitable candidates for our role. The process was great and we will use these services again when hiring for similar roles.

At KIN, we use Recruit Shop for all of our recruitment needs across several companies within the KIN family. Lisa has been fantastic to work with — she consistently sends through strong candidates and is proactive in keeping in touch, even when a role is not running as hot. Lisa is always professional, approachable, and responsive, making the recruitment process smooth and efficient. Her ongoing communication and understanding of our business needs are greatly appreciated, and we value the relationship we have built with her over time. We would highly recommend Lisa and Recruit Shop to any business seeking reliable and professional recruitment support.

Dealing with James from the Recruitshop was a great experiance James went above and over what someone would expect to fill the role of a spare parts interpreter, James kept in touch with updates and progress, his dedication to fill the role was excellent. The canidate he found for us is preforming well and would have been impossible without the Recruitshop as i have tried many other Reruitment agencys for the same position. I would recommend James and the Reruitshop at the highest level he was professional, organised and provided excellent customer service thanks James
