This would involve the advertisement of job vacancies, screening and shortlisting candidates, as well as facilitating the preliminary interviews. This process leads to a final shortlist and oral interviews. Additionally, the process may include psychometric assessments or assessment centers, should the client require these services.
This would involve identifying, locating, and approaching suitable, qualified candidates for positions that present a particular challenge to recruit for. The process can be done concurrently with advertising or without advertising the positions, followed by interviews and eventual placement. This method is most ideal for specialized positions. We have undertaken a number of headhunting assignments for different clients. People Connections is able to reach beyond the borders of Botswana by utilizing professional networks, social networks such as LinkedIn, and other career portals. We are also able to network with other recruitment agencies outside the country.
People Connections has a large database of clients that it taps into when required. This is a time and cost-efficient source of talent. The candidates will be prescreened by us. Once registered with us, employers will have access to our online database to conduct searches at their convenience.
Temporary staffing offers a flexible solution for companies with seasonal operations or short-term projects. It allows businesses to scale their workforce efficiently without incurring unnecessary HR costs during slower periods. At People Connections, we maintain a roster of pre-screened employees ready to start work at short notice. This ensures you can meet your workload demands without delays. Additionally, as the staff remains on our payroll throughout the contract, we handle the administrative tasks, relieving you of the burden and allowing you to focus on your core operations.
Hiring the wrong employee can lead to wasted time, poor morale, and separation challenges. People Connections’ temp-to-hire services provide a stress-free solution by offering a probationary period to assess a candidate’s fit before making a commitment. During this period, PCO manages payroll and keeps the employee on its books, allowing you to focus on evaluating their suitability. Once you’re confident in their fit, you can seamlessly complete your internal onboarding process, ensuring a smooth transition and a perfect match for your team.
Filling critical positions quickly and effectively is essential, but rushing can lead to poor hires. People Connections actively identifies top talent in customer service, sales, administration, management, and various artisan disciplines. When you have a key opening, we promptly schedule interviews with candidates we’ve personally screened to match your requirements. This ensures your organization remains fully staffed, allowing you to focus on running your business with confidence.
We also provide relief staff such as filling a position while an employee is on leave.
