How we Search
We have found since COVID that advertising on job boards is not working as well as it used to. This means we need to put more resources into contacting suitable candidates directly and presenting your opportunity to them. Upon taking a brief from you, we:
- Send a nationwide email to all candidates in our database that have the skill sets you are seeking, asking if they are interested or know someone who is. This also catches people who have changed their location or are open to relocating.
- Send a targeted SMS campaign out to all suitable candidates in our database that have been located from our AI tools.
- Locate additional suitable candidates from 3rd party databases like SEEK, Indeed, and our social media connections.
- Place adverts on suitable job boards and social media platforms.
- Phone suitable candidates that our AI tools have surfaced.
How we Screen
In addition to your selection criteria, in our interviews with candidates, we will assess their:
- Past performance.
- Behavioural profile (Using DISC and behavioural event questions).
- Motivations.
- Knowledge.
Once we have a match, we will provide you with our interview notes and a copy of the candidate’s resume. From there, we’ll seek your feedback, being whether you’d like us to arrange an interview time for them to meet with you, or obtain more information, or to advise the candidate that they were not successful. While your interviewing process is proceeding, we’ll complete at least two reference checks on each of your shortlisted candidates. From there, you will be able to make a hiring decision. We’ll advise all unsuccessful applicants and assist in presenting offers.
Hello Daryl,
Just a happy story: I have found the opportunities at Marist that I was looking for – being able to apply my ideas on engaging and challenging high-level learners. So much so that I have been fortunate enough to have been given the role of coordinating the gifted and talented program here at the College. So the move to Marist has been a great one for me, and I would just like to thank you and your team, please pass on my thanks.
Kind Regards,
Michael
