    Let's be honest, the hiring process can be a headache.

     

    You've poured your heart and soul into building your company, and finding the right person to fill a key role feels like finding a needle in a haystack.

     

    Maybe you've had negative experiences with recruiters: irrelevant CVs, empty promises, or a feeling they don't grasp your company's culture. We hear you.

     

    And let's face it, a bad hire can cost you time, money, and the whole process starts over.

     

    That's why you might be tempted to stick with a "no outside help" policy, thinking you can handle the hiring process on your own.

     

    But here's the thing: while going solo might seem like the safest route, it could also be unintentionally blocking you from finding the perfect candidate.

     

    Here's how partnering with the right recruitment agency can be a game-changer:

     

    Unearthing hidden talent.

     

    Your network is valuable, but it has limitations. We have vast networks built over years of experience. We can source highly-skilled professionals who aren't actively searching for new jobs – the "passive talents" who could be the perfect fit for your company culture and bring a wealth of experience to the table.

     

    Expertise at your fingertips.

     

    Let's face it, you're busy running your company. We specialise in talent acquisition. We're experts at filtering through a sea of CVs to identify the top talent that aligns with your specific needs and company culture. 

     

    We can save you countless hours wading through applications and conducting initial screenings to ensure only the most qualified candidates reach your desk.

     

    Building your dream team shouldn't feel like a budget drain or a gamble. But let's be honest, the traditional hiring process can be both. 

     

    Addressing your concerns.

     

    Here's the secret: the right recruitment partner (like Digital Waffle) can actually save you time, money and guarantee control throughout the search. Let's dive in and see how...

     

    Cost.

     

    Building a dream team can sometimes be expensive. But fear not! Intuch, our innovative subscription-based recruitment solution, makes hiring top talent affordable and hassle-free. Unlike traditional recruitment with its hefty upfront costs and inflexible contracts, Intuch offers a pay-as-you-go approach.

     

    Our fees are split over 12 months when we place a candidate, and if that candidate leaves, your payments stop immediately. This minimises recruitment risk and allows you to scale your team faster than ever.

     

    Control.

     

    We understand you want control over the hiring process. When you partner with us, we become an extension of your team, working collaboratively to find the best fit. We keep you informed throughout the entire process, ensuring your voice is heard.

     

    Remember: The goal is to find the best person for the job, someone who will make a significant contribution to your company's success.

     

    A "no outside help" policy might seem efficient on the surface, but it could be creating a blind spot.

     

    By strategically partnering with an agency like ours that understands your company's culture and values, you can expand your reach, leverage our expertise, and significantly increase your chances of landing your dream hire.

     

    Don't let negative recruitment experiences from the past prevent you from finding the perfect fit for your future.
