We already have a Monster. Why should my company use a Recruiter?Searching for the right person to add to your team takes time. It’s more involved than grabbing a resume off of Monster. We are experts in finding, screening, qualifying, and interviewing potential employees – saving you TIME and MONEY. So you can focus on what you do best – running a successful, profitable business. Back to TopHow do we pick a recruiting agency?There are several things you want to look for. The first is experience. The second is associations. Belonging to recruiting associations, trade associations, and professional organizations are a sign that the agency is committed to the industry. A third is certifications. Just as you prefer your Networking Engineers to have their MCSE along with their experience, and your accountant to have his CPA, you should want your recruiter to have his/her CPC certification. Also, don’t be afraid to ask the potential agency about their recruiting procedures, screening process, their recruiting philosophy, and for references. Most importantly, choose someone you get along well with and will enjoy working with. The best recruiter/company relationships are true partnerships requiring you to work closely together. So make sure it’s someone you like and trust. Back to TopDoes GlassFarm have a niche ?GlassFarm Placement Services, LLC has over 20 years of IT recruiting experience. We have seen and placed almost everything from legacy to emerging technologies, and even those that have come and gone. But we realize that we cannot do it all equally as well. Therefore, we specialize in IBM Mainframe, AS/400, Lotus Notes, SAP, PeopleSoft, and Management positions throughout the United States. However, we can find and place people in any facet of IT anywhere around the globe. Back to TopHow do you get your candidates?GlassFarm Placement Services, LLC is NOT on Monster. While large job boards do have their place in today’s job market, we prefer small specialized boards. We are also active in user groups, trade associations, and professional organizations. However, about 80% of our top candidates come from referrals of our top candidates and placed employees. We get candidates other recruiters, companies and agencies cannot. Back to TopWhy do i have to answer so many questions on you job order form unrelated to the required technical skills?Actually, they are important. A good recruiter knows that it takes more than a technical “match” to find the right person for your organization. You could post your ad on Monster for a Visual Basic programmer and get 100 responses by tomorrow. But you want more than that. Those extra questions are designed to find out more about your organization, management and department, to ensure that we only send people who are qualified as people, not just technical skills. We want to give you an employee for life, not someone you will have to replace in 6 months because their career goals or management style doesn’t match. We know it’s important to match the whole person along with the technical skills. Back to TopDo you offer any other services?Yes! We will gladly consult with you on ways to streamline your entire hiring process and make it flow smoother and faster. We can also teach you and your other hiring managers to be better interviewers. We can also teach you how to sell your company to potential employees. And how and when is the best time to make an offer, and other skills to ensure a higher rate of offer acceptance and retention. Back to TopHow is GlassFarm Placement Services, LLC different from other placement agencies?In several ways. First of all, all of our recruiters are certified (CPC) and expected to perform to the highest level of honesty, integrity, and professionalism at all times. We are NOT on Monster. We belong to user groups, trade organizations, and professional organizations. For more information, please see {link} Back to Top
