Or feel free to use a phased approach whereby you can initially engage a single agency for a set period of time before opening your vacancy to other agencies or our full network of specialist recruitment agencies if you feel you need to cast the net wider. You remain in control to tailor which approach best suits your requirements.

I HAVE AN APPLICANT TRACKING SYSTEM. WHY DO I NEED NBR TALENT?Think of NBR Talent as being complementary to your Applicant Tracking System and as a single sourcing channel to access candidates from a large network of specialist recruitment agencies. Accurately measure and manage your recruitment agency hires and spend through one vendor management system not multiple recruitment agencies and vendors.

WHAT IF THE RECRUITMENT AGENCY I WANT TO ENGAGE IS NOT ON NBR TALENT?If the recruitment agency you want to engage is not on NBR Talent, you are welcome to invite them to become an approved recruitment agency on our site so they can submit their candidates via the NBR Talent platform. Think of our site as a cloud-based applicant tracking and sourcing system and vendor management system all in one.

“When you have a tight deadline to recruit for, the ability to have a

coordinated effort between multiple recruitment agencies is highly effective. Our Management position was posted on NBR Talent and the successful candidate interviewed and on board in four weeks. We have also forged new relationships with recruitment consultants. A win win for all” said Heather Jones, Group HR Manager.

“We’ve used the NBR Talent recruitment hub to fill a range of vacancies over the past few years and, when I need to do a recruitment agency hire, I will go to this site first.

“One of the things I like about NBR Talent is that rather than having to get on the phone to communicate a job requirement to a number of recruitment agencies and negotiate with them independently, on NBR Talent there is a ready-made network of agencies with a diverse range of specialities to tap into. Here you are able to get all of the agencies you need in one spot. If we are going to

use agencies, I want them in one place. “Using NBR Talent cuts down the time

to hire and gives you a pool of recruitment consultants at a very cost effective price. I like how the success fee is already sorted out at a level that we are comfortable with.

“It also saves you a lot of time screening through loads and loads of candidate applications you get when posting jobs on job boards. You get a better quality of CV’s coming through and better job posting to fill rates.”

The company has experienced continued growth year-on-year while maintaining their industry leading

customer service.“We had a key senior marketing role

in our business and we first looked to recruit through a single agency approach, which brought us a number of possible candidates. Then we posted our job on NBR Talent and were able to quickly tap into multiple recruitment agency databases, which returned a higher number of suitable candidates. It took us 21 days to secure our candidate.” Blair Stewart, General Manager says.

“In all, Digital Island has posted five jobs on NBR Talent and appointed a marketing manager, national account manager and operations specialist.”

“We have found the NBR Talent platform is particularly good for niche/hard-to-find roles. They enable us to search far-and-wide to get the best person for the role.”

process through the portal is also a key benefit.”

PET DOCTORS GROUP

Dr Stephen Merchant, Chief ExecutivePet Doctors

Pet Doctors Group operates a group of 23 veterinary clinics and a number of value-added businesses under their own distinct brands (VetNurse+, VetFirst, PetPost, VetSign), all supported by a central support office. Its strategy is to develop businesses which cater to different aspects of the animal health industry. Pet Doctors Group also looks to leverage its growing number of clinics as a platform for further technology-based solutions for the veterinary profession, both in New Zealand and international markets.

The Pet Doctors Group is already New Zealand’s largest companion animal business with over 60 vets and approximately 250 staff and is about to embark on a rapid growth phase.

“We were recommended to NBR Talent by our private equity investor Pioneer Capital who had successfully used the site to appoint a hard-to-fill Chief Operating Officer for one of their portfolio companies,” Pet Doctors chief executive Dr Stephen Merchant says.

“We had a mission-critical CFO role to fill and were on the verge of rushing this appointment. Through posting a CFO contractor job on NBR Talent we were able to appoint a high-calibre, 2-month CFO contractor within 24 hours to help manage the transition to a permanent CFO.”

“For the permanent CFO role we were able to easily post the job on NBR Talent and connect with specialist accounting recruitment agencies within minutes. We received an excellent shortlist of ten passive candidates within five days which compared favourably with the 100’s of candidates sourced via job boards and social media.”

“We would certainly use NBR Talent again and would strongly recommend this to other similar businesses.”

GREENTREE

Stephen Sims, Research & Development Director, Greentree

Greentree has been building innovative business software for more than 25 years, and in doing so has built a global reputation for reliability, flexibility and cost-effectiveness. We pride ourselves on getting to know our customers through our extensive business partner network, understanding their needs, and providing them with a solution that 99% of the time is available straight out of the box.

Just as our customers are with us for the long haul, so is our staff. Greentree operates in a technology space where there is a global shortage of candidates. We recruit selectively to get the very best fit, resulting in low turnover and a recruitment programme primarily driven by growth.

“We have used the NBR Talent

recruitment hub twice over the last year and have successfully found candidates for Product Manager and Senior Developer roles, within 14 and 9 days respectively,” Stephen Sims, Research & Development Director at Greentree said.

“By posting the jobs on the site, we have access to a far wider coverage of recruitment agency databases and a larger candidate pool than was previously possible through going to just a single recruitment agency. Using a single recruitment agency is unlikely to have as much reach in terms of possible candidates, particularly passive ones.”

“Being time-poor, we also found this a more efficient experience than placing jobs on job boards where you spend a lot of time sifting through large numbers of often inappropriate applicants. Through posting the job on NBR Talent, we were able to access pre-screened qualified candidates where the recruitment agencies

have already done the filtering and matching process for us. The time savings are immense and we get a more qualified stream of candidates.”

“NBR Talent has also recognised that New Zealand recruitment agency fees are typically higher than equivalent services elsewhere. They offer a very competitive fee payable when you successfully appoint the candidate. This combined with the recruitment success we have achieved makes using the site a no brainer for me.”

“Finding suitably skilled BI professionals to join our thriving team is a constant challenge as we continue to grow,” Travis Barker, Consulting Partner at Stellar Consulting Group said.

“What we like about the NBR Talent recruitment hub is the efficiencies we have been able to gain in our recruitment processes. To us this is an intelligent way to do recruitment.

“This is a way to both reduce the noise around your recruitment process and increase accuracy.

“Through posting our jobs on NBR Talent, we have also been able to connect with a better quality of candidates than we would have traditionally seen had we posted these on job boards or social media channels.

“The site has allowed us to build new relationships with a wider range of recruitment agencies.

“Now, when we want to broadcast a job to the widest possible audience, we can access a large network of recruitment agencies through one platform rather than dealing independently with just one or two as we have previously.

“I would have no hesitation in recommending NBR Talent to other companies.”
