How We Work
Our main goal is finding the right cultural fit for teams and building lasting relationships with the people and places we work with. This allows us to contribute to vibrant, productive, and inclusive workplaces where good people thrive.
We strive to offer flexible social media recruitment services, offering both retained and contingent recruitment modes to suit your unique requirements.
Social media recruitment, retained style:
- You’ll collaborate exclusively with The People Place for specific roles, dedicating our resources and time to finding the best candidates.
- With a guarantee in place, we’ll provide flexibility to adjust the timeline and prioritise placements as needed.
- We’ll invest significant time to understand your needs, company culture, and role requirements, resulting in higher-quality candidates.
- Concentrating in-depth on a single role reduces staff turnover, improves retention, and streamlines the recruitment process from start to finish.
- You’ll pay a fee at the start of the search, securing our commitment to finding the right candidate, with custom arrangements negotiable.
Social media recruitment, contingent style:
- Multiple recruiters or agencies frequently compete to fill a single job opening, raising the risk of duplicated efforts and candidate confusion.
- You’ll pay a fee only if our candidate is successfully placed, ensuring value-based billing.
- Rapid turnaround times required for contingent roles can result in a less thorough screening process, potentially compromising candidate quality.
- Top candidates might be contacted by several recruiters simultaneously, creating a cluttered and overwhelming experience.
- The fast-paced nature of contingent recruitment can dilute your brand, potentially giving an impression of urgency or desperation.
While we recommend retained mode for the best results, we’d love to accommodate your unique social media recruitment needs. Find out more about how a partnership with our lead creative recruiter, Nic, works.
Our Process
Our social media recruitment process typically involves:

We’ll handle all logistics related to scheduling interviews, making the process seamless and efficient for both you and the candidates. This also includes follow-up communications and feedback collection.
02
Candidate sourcing
We’ll utilise our broad network, industry connections, and various channels to source top candidates. This includes targeted advertising and executive searches to find the best fit.
06
Negotiation
We’ll assist in the negotiation process, helping to finalise offers, salary packages, and other employment terms. We aim to ensure a fair and transparent process that satisfies both parties.
03
Interview and screening
We’ll conduct thorough interviews and rigorous screening processes to evaluate candidates both professionally and personally, ensuring only the most suitable people are presented.
