We believe that one of the biggest challenges facing any business in South Africa at the moment is the ability to find; and retain; the best talent for your business. We all know that a businesses success will be defined by the people you have - and this can be a complex and time consuming process.

So how can we help, and why talk to us? We think we can help you make the right people choices for your business, and we are a little bit different to any of the other agencies operating in the market today.

TalentSmith is a small, specialist recruitment agency, focused on delivering personal service. We know that it is very frustrating to receive a pile of CVs and have to spend valuable time wading through them and working out which people to see. We also understand how much money and time is invested in bringing a new employee to the point where they are able to begin to add value – the wrong candidate can be an extremely costly mistake.

We like to think that we are different because we really want to get to understand your business, to get a sense of your strategies and the requirements for a particular position. At the same time we are also able to build up a profile of your corporate culture. Many people can be successful in an interview process, and their skills may even be the perfect match for the job requirements, but it is the softer things that really matter. Does their work ethic and personal personality fit to what you are looking for? We work hard to match the totality of the candidate to your company’s needs—thus making your decision much simpler.

You will receive only candidates that we believe you should consider - no wading through piles of unsuitable CVs. Each shortlisted candidate will have an interview pack which will include:

• Detailed CV
• Candidate personality profiling
• Reference checks - minimum of two
• Credit and criminal check
• Job-specific tests, if applicable
