- "I’ve used the services of Talent Direct for the past year and a half, both at my current and previous employer. I’ve always found the service a great help and have used it to make a number of hires, especially in the IT space. The guys are always professional, offer a quick turn around in presenting a suitable short-list and there is the large cost savings to consider too. Talent Direct would be a great first port of call in reducing your agency spend."

The strength of our business lies in our ability to attract and retain high calibre candidates in the online community.
How do we attract our candidates?
- Branded advert / email campaign to a pre-defined and targeted list of relevant agency calibre candidate members on the private Talent Direct Database of 50,000 candidates via email and SMS text job alerts
- Response management, candidate screening / filtering to ensure a high calibre shortlist of relevant candidates
- Administration and applications status update emails to all candidates
External advertising campaign on leading job boards
Our reach into the candidate community is enhanced by social channels (twitter, facebook, blogs, etc) recruitment has always used traditional social channels (word of mouth, friends’ recommedndations, etc) but thus far the online world has been slow to introduce them and exploit their potential.
Our database is generated by a community feel – candidates and potential candidates (passive candidates) are encouraged to engage with Talent Direct through our website. Our community and understanding of the individuals in the community allows us to market jobs accurately and reduces the traditional reliance on more broadly advertised online approaches.
Our own in house recruitment experts conduct online searches across the relevant specialist CV databases and utilise a pro active online based search and selection methods to attract candidates to our database.
