Online Recruitment with a Difference

AWD online is taking the traditional recruitment agency model to a new level with its new online flat fee recruitment service.

Gary Silver, a Director at AWD online explains, “AWD online was set up to give businesses from all different sectors an alternative, value for money, way to recruit new permanent employees for their company.

We have streamlined the traditional recruitment model, which has reduced our costs that are now passed on to our clients, and unlike other online flat fee recruitment companies we keep our pricing structure simple, with no additional costs or hidden extras. One vacancy credit will cost from £495 (+vat), with discounts being offered for multiple jobs.

Historically businesses would either recruit staff directly by placing adverts in magazines and newspapers, or more recently online, or utilise the services of a traditional recruitment agency.

Although all of these methods to recruit staff have some advantages, they also have big disadvantages. Some of the major disadvantages by employing these approaches were that businesses would either receive not enough or too many unsuitable applications from direct advertising, which was also extremely time consuming to process, or the businesses would have to pay high fees to recruitment agencies for each applicant they hired, which would become very expensive.

Our unique flat fee recruitment model is designed to provide our clients with the best of both worlds. The low cost of advertising directly with the expertise of using a professional recruitment company.

CVs are sourced just as you would expect from a traditional recruitment agency, but without the costs associated to it, and unlike online job boards, our service is not automated. We are experienced flat fee recruitment consultants who take the time to talk to each client and potential applicant to ensure there is a real fit in skills and expectations required for the vacancy.

By using our flat fee recruitment service our clients know they are receiving real value for money and the chance to hire some of the best hand picked applicants in the market place, and our applicants know they are going to be offered some career enhancing opportunities that are a perfect match to their skills and experience”.
