Why CREAM are different...

Recruitment - Current Practice
Traditionally recruitment companies rely on three or four standard recruitment products to cover the myriad of differing requirements that are presented to them. Generally this approach is suitable only when applied to basic, or entry-level vacancies. These products need considerable modification to be effective in particular industries and occupational sectors. They will be inefficient and costly for volume recruiting or establishment of ‘green-field’ sites.

Recruitment - Your Industry, Your Ideas
CREAM of the Crop is committed to customising its recruitment and assessment methodology to the real needs of its clients. You may wish us to handle your entire recruitment needs, or only certain segments to reduce your workload. Each job order large or small, is treated with respect and detailed consideration, and our procedures synergised to meet your objectives and desires!

Should you require selected services to augment your normal recruitment methods, or the complete management, development and accomplishment of a major recruitment campaign, CREAM of the Crop can provide the expertise you are looking for. With expertise across a wide range of industries, occupations and regional centres, our services can provide you with quality assurance and piece of mind.

For example:  Partnership approach. Many companies wish to provide their own input to the selection process, either by using the skills and inside knowledge of established in-house HR experts, or by conducting various segments of the recruit within company premises. You might prefer that interviews are conducted by your HR staff specialists, or you may have company specific assessments, or inductions you prefer to conduct yourself.

CREAM of the Crop will provide the back up support for your team, ensuring that our processes harmonise with yours. Our aim will be to lessen your burden. We may for example filter initial candidate enquiries, referring only those people who have been through our screening process and who meet the competencies and personality dimensions you specify.

Of course our pricing will be tailored to only those items you require, thus saving you money and time!
