Our Services Explained

The processes followed at HWR are very thorough and involve all or most of the following:

Job order: Ideally we prefer to receive the job order face to face with the client in order to understand the requirement and get a feel for the workplace and the organisation.

Understanding client and their competitors: We will do a lot of research around the role before commencing with our search.

Job description: We are happy to draw up our own job specs if necessary or add to the one which the client has drawn up.

Candidate Search: Depending on the nature of the job we will utilise various search methods including, internal database search, searching for candidates via job portals, utilisation of social media, response handling from advertised jobs or head-hunting candidates who may not currently be in the job market.

Competency based interviews: These are conducted by ourselves preferably face to face and interview notes on the candidate accompany each CV submission to the client.

In house Assessments: We are able to conduct a small selection of in-house assessments on behalf of our clients at our own cost. We can also offer the HBDI assessment (a highly validated diagnostic sur­vey which indicates a candidate’s thinking style preferences) which is used as a placement tool for clients at a small additional cost.

Interview preparations: We take care in assisting applicants with interview preparation and setting up interviews and assessments with the client.

Background checks: We offer pre-employment checks on the shortlisted candidates including ID, fraud, criminal, credit and academic at our own cost.

References:  We ensure thorough verbal references and include specific probing questions at the client’s request. These references are verified.

Placement: We assist the client in the offer-making process by interpreting the offer and the remuneration and articulating the terms of the contract to the applicant.
