FAQs
What does a recruitment agency do?
It sources, screens and places candidates into employers' roles — permanent, temp and contract.
Do recruitment agencies work?
Yes — a good agency shortens time-to-hire by working from a pre-vetted candidate network and screening against your brief, which is especially valuable for hard-to-fill or specialist roles.
How to address a cover letter to a recruitment agency?
Address it to the named consultant if you have one, otherwise use a polite general greeting. Lead with the role or sector you're targeting, your key skills, and your availability — keep it concise.
Do you need a labour hire licence to recruit permanent staff in Victoria?
Permanent placement is exempt from labour hire licensing — we lead with RCSA membership and structured candidate vetting. Temp and contract placements in VIC are supplied under our VIC labour hire licence.
