FAQs
What do HR recruitment agencies in Newcastle actually do?
We take your brief, source and screen HR candidates, and put forward a shortlist of people worth meeting. We also handle reference checks and offer negotiation, so you spend your time interviewing rather than sorting applications.
Can you help with human resources recruitment in Newcastle for contract roles?
Yes. We place HR professionals on contract and temporary assignments, for example to cover leave, a payroll project or a system rollout. Tell us the duration and the systems involved and we will match accordingly.
How quickly will I receive a shortlist?
A vetted shortlist arrives within 7 days of a confirmed brief. The sooner we know the must-have skills, the reporting line and the start date, the faster we can narrow down the right people.
Do you recruit payroll specialists as well as HR generalists?
We do. Payroll roles are screened for award interpretation, system skills and accuracy under deadline, while generalists are assessed for employee relations judgement. We tell you plainly where a candidate is strong and where they are still developing.
What happens if the HR hire does not work out?
Permanent placements carry a 90-day guarantee. If your hire leaves or underperforms within that period, we run the search again and find a replacement without an additional fee.
