We stand by our placements
If a placement needs a refresher or training in a certain skill or technical program, we’ll provide them with the necessary training, and will continue to support the candidate for the first three months of their employment.
Our team is on call to help you through the placement process, saving you time, energy, and money by reducing the number of candidates you need to process. Candidates are screened and selected to fit the position and company, thereby increasing the probability of hiring someone who can successfully integrate into your work environment. We identify candidates quickly and efficiently.
Our objective is to make sure that both the hiring manager and candidate are satisfied. We work closely with candidates throughout the interview process, addressing their questions and concerns, and ensuring they can meet the expectations of the job. Our goal is to place the right person in the right job.
OnTarget places documentation and communication professionals in permanent positions, contract jobs, and outsourcing projects. We:
Place candidates into a broad range of jobs, which are not always advertised (we handle confidential recruitment and “head-hunting”)
Understand the hidden criteria that are often not specified in public advertisements
Pre-screen to match candidates to positions, increasing the probability of our candidate getting the job
Proactively manage the recruitment process, ensuring that resumes do not disappear into a “black hole”
Regularly communicate and collaborate with both the HR and Documentation Managers, increasing our resume-to-interview ratio
Often consult to companies
who are hiring, as to whom to interview and who to make offers to, especially when it comes down to the final short list
Added Value
After a successful placement, we provide candidates with:
Ongoing counselling and technical support
Two days of free training
Conversion Option
While many recruitment companies do not permit this, we make it easy for corporate clients to convert contractors into full-time employees.
