Advertised Selection
Advertising is often effective when the assignment covers a large geographical
area, an extensive range of skill sets, high volume recruitment and company
branding activities. Oliver James Associates are able to research and provide
advice on the most appropriate advertising media.

We then book, write and design the advert in liaison with the client. Our
consultants respond to all applications in a professional manner, conduct
screening interviews and present a short-list of candidates to the client.
Where deemed necessary a full search process can be conducted in conjunction
with the advertising campaign. This service is called advertised search and is
quite simply the most powerful way to send your recruitment message to the
market.
Retained Search
This methodology is particularly applicable when aiming to identify senior
management who are often by nature passive job seekers. These individuals
require courting in a more targeted and discreet manner for specific roles.
Through our upfront strategic planning consultation we work with our clients to
define a target portfolio of competitive and relevant companies where the ideal
person may currently work. Our research methodology and industry reputation
combined with professional solicitation techniques help to overcome the barriers
to identifying and approaching the passive job seeker.
We keep clients continuously informed with regular updates and our progress
tracking reports offer complete visibility during the search process. We are
typically able to deliver a short list of qualified candidates for each
assignment in three to six weeks from commencement of the search, which compares
favourably with the industry average of ten weeks due to our already strong
contact network within the insurance market. |
