The role of the Placement Agency

With the technological age and subsequent job diversification the Recruitment Agency has proved invaluable. It is a time and cost effective way to locate exactly the right person for a vacancy.

Time and Money

Naturally, organisations want the best staff available. But this takes time. Time which they need to spend attending to their business. By using us they avoid the endless stream of phone calls, unsuitable Applicants, reference checking and excessive numbers of interviews.

Frustrated by wasting your time?
In times of Company expansion or staff shortages, any business demands all its staff's energies. By using an Agency they and their Personnel and Human Resources staff can save time and carry out normal workloads with minimal disruption, while assuring the best in pre-screened Applicants.

Making it known you have a position

Also, there is the huge expense of advertising. By using an Agency, a Company's confidentiality can be maintained, and their exact requirements can still be fulfilled. Unlike many other Agencies, O. U. Norman’s standard service costs them nothing for advertising. Listing positions with O. U. Norman is tantamount to placing costly up front advertising - without charge, of course.

Naturally, if they have a special advertising campaign in mind, O. U. Norman is at their service with it's own trained ad-writing staff to assist in making their ads more successful, run either under their logo or ours.

Most 'job seekers', especially if they are already employed, find the huge mass of positions vacant advertising somewhat daunting. It is easier for them to go directly to an Agency. O. U. Norman’s advertising has become an institution. It commands an enormous response, thus contributing to our ever-expanding data base of people.

Success Rate

Companies also need to think about a guarantee of success. What if the new employee decides to leave? What if your expensive advertisement generates a less than satisfactory response? The whole procedure would have to be repeated again, as would all the extra cost.

O. U. Norman’s Guarantee safeguards organisations against non-success.

In the highly competitive world of staffing, top personnel are hard to find and unsuitable staff can be disastrous.

The role of a Recruitment Agency is therefore most valuable. Choosing the right one is equally important.

O. U. Norman’s high standards, 'no-risk' policies and expertise place us above the rest.
