Screening
Our candidates are the best because they possess a growth mindset, they are literate, numerate and they can communicate professionally.
We test for each of these attributes and ensure that all applications tick all the compliance boxes, be it SETA, YES or similar.
We aren’t scared to get 10s of 1000s of applications because we have the technology to do most of the screening automatically.
We’ll take 1000s down to the best in minutes.
Readiness
We have partnered with the TSIBA Ignition Academy to offer a free, zero-rated and fully online Learnership Work Readiness programme designed around Stephen Covey’s “7 Habits of Highly Effective People”.
This will maximise a candidate’s chance of success and your chances of retention and absorption.
