At AC-Resourcing we take pride in being able to offer market leading service at a competitive cost. We position ourselves as sitting between the consultancy and the recruitment agency. This has meant we are able to take the best aspects of both solutions
The Consultancy
Consultancies traditionally offer two solutions:
- Outsourcing a whole team to a client to deliver a project.
- Providing individual consultants to work on site as required.
One of the benefits of using a consultancy is that you are able to outsource the project to a professional team that understands your business and project requirements. Consultancies are also able to offer fast turnaround when it comes to assembling a team or providing a consultant. One of the pitfalls of using a consultancy is that they will often charge between two and four times more than a recruitment agency. Furthermore, as soon as it is delivered the team/consultant withdraws from the project, resulting in a situation where there is no in-house knowledge base. Consequently, should future changes be required, re-engagement of the consultancy may be unavoidable.
The Recruitment Agency
A recruitment agency will take a written specification from the recruiter and send back a selection of CVs. Often an agent will not know what they are recruiting for and will therefore be word-matching content from the CVs to find candidates. This means that the candidates are not briefed or vetted correctly, the outcome being that time is wasted interviewing inappropriate candidates.
