Sourcing Candidates

Trusted people from trusted sources

Perth Recruitment Services has built a reputation for sourcing high-calibre people across a broad range of industries. Today we are pleased to boast one of the largest active candidate databases in Perth:

12,500+ active candidates
8,000 additional registered candidates
20,000+ total people

Our point of difference is that nobody gets lost in the system. As a locally owned and operated company, it’s important to us that every candidate is recognised for their unique strengths and experience.

We believe in a diverse, enthusiastic workforce. It’s how we run our business, and it’s how we help our clients succeed.

Where we find candidates

Referrals

Word of mouth is one of the most powerful marketing tools. When a satisfied client or high-quality candidate recommends someone to us, we can add another exceptional individual to our roster. Perth Recruitment Services has also developed effective employee referral programs to incentivise these valued introductions.

Social sourcing

Social media advertising and activity, mainly through LinkedIn and Facebook, is used to identify and attract potential candidates. With more than 3,500 social media followers, we can reach a large engaged audience online.

Walk-ins

We welcome candidates to visit our office on Parry St in Fremantle to apply in-person. Sometimes, there is just no replacement for a face-to-face meeting. All our candidates are screened in person whether they apply online or by walking through our front door.

Online marketplace

As part of a broader marketing strategy we use reputable online job boards like Seek, Indeed, Jora and Gumtree to source a candidate pool. Plus, we search many niche portals where we can hone in on specific skills and qualifications to attract the right candidate.

Expos and trade fairs

Perth Recruitment Services are stalwarts of Perth recruitment fairs. We ensure we invest in a presence at the biggest and busiest events to demonstrate our training, products, services and study activities. Be sure to say hello if you see us at the next expo!

Training and development

We have been in the Perth recruitment industry for a long time – nearly 20 years, in the case of Managing Director, Tim Kullack. This insight gained from experience means we can identify skills shortages and aim to fill them with formal training and development.

When a potential employer needs a specialist role filled, we identify candidates who would be a perfect fit after formal training. As a proactive recruiter, it is our job to seek out continuous improvement opportunities, ensuring our candidates are in the best position to excel in your organisation.

What we look for in a job seeker

Before we search for candidates, our specialist recruiters talk to hiring managers about the required qualifications and expectations. We gather as much information as possible about the team culture, seniority level, previous experiences and goalposts for success.

Setting specific criteria and separating ‘must-haves’ from ‘nice-to-haves’ is a crucial first step. From there, we can search our database and cast a wide net to identify a suitable candidate pool. Learn more about our recruitment process here.

We might source candidates from far and wide, but they all have one thing in common: when Perth Recruitment Services puts their name forward, you can trust they are the best person for the role.
