The HT Group

Top talent is at a premium in the ultra-competitive emerging tech hub of the Texas Hill Country. That’s because there’s virtually no investment more certain to pay off than hiring talented employees, at every level of a business’s operation. There’s no better way to ensure that you’re hiring top talent than partnering with an experienced recruiting firm.

Whether you’re looking for a new CFO with premier Austin executive recruiters or temporary employees with a reliable temp agency, a staffing partner enables informed decisions. Making the best use of a great recruiting firm means forming a partnership. For partnerships to pay off, both parties need to contribute. Consider the following for optimizing your relationship with a recruiting partner.

Use a Niche Recruiter

While finding an excellent recruiter is obviously the first priority, if that recruiter doesn’t have a niche area of focus (corresponding to the field you’re in), their effectiveness is necessarily going to be limited. Recruiting firms with an industry-specific team simply know the industry, they know the companies in that industry, and they know the movers and shakers in those companies. They’re going to have specific insights about industry details and necessary skill sets. They’ll also have more tangible insights about industry company culture, and the candidates who would best mesh with those cultures.

Don’t Be Afraid to Ask Questions

Every productive, reputable recruiting agency should welcome you asking questions about their process, timeframes, and results. Consider asking them about the following:

· The metrics regarding their successful placement rate

· How long the average placement cycle takes

· A description of their search process

· A description of their vetting process

· How many searches they’re working on

It’s also entirely reasonable to ask the recruiter to work with you on position descriptions. It’s a great way for your business and the agency to fine-tune the details of the job description and highlight the features of your company’s culture and characteristics that you’re proud of. Feel free to ask about the specifics of your niche. When you’re partnering with a temp agency Austin relies on, make sure that you’re communicative about how tight your timelines are and how often you might need a new round of staff.

Use an Agency That Builds Trust

Partnerships rely on trust and communication. Your communication of questions, expectations, and requirements is one step of the process. In turn, the right staffing partner will answer questions, operate with transparency, and communicate their own expectations in a clear and timely fashion. Commitment to clarity and transparency builds trust, and it’s what you need and deserve. That trust will help you feel confident in the candidates and in the process, easing the internal burden of the hiring process.
