Placement process


The placement process consists of three simple steps:

1. Please contact our office by phone or through email and inform us about your opening (starting date, position) and the candidate's profile.

2. If we have potential candidates registered that match with the desired profile and starting date, we submit the dossiers. If there are not any suitable candidates in our database, we will publish your opening on several well-known and highly frequented international recruiting websites.

3. After you have made a selection of the right persons for the position, we will organise interviews.




Reference checks

We do reference checks on all applicants before sending the curricula vitae and setting up interviews.
