Like any good partnership, Direct Staff & Direct Calculating Limited's working relationships are based on trust: clients trust us to fulfil their recruitment demands, while candidates trust our ability to find the vacancy that matches their talents and experience. It's a simple enough premise but getting it right takes skill, knowledge and tenacity.

It also takes a lot of hard work. You see, we believe that before we can begin working for you, we must first get to know your business - find out what really makes your company tick. That way, we know that the service we provide is the service you need - whether that's a 24-hour rapid response solution or a long term recruitment strategy. Often this takes innovation and smart thinking, the ability to try something a little different to achieve results.

In addition, to help us to help you find the right person for the right job, we've developed a number of effective selection techniques including:
Database search
Blind or branded advertising
Professional networking
Interviewing
Skills and attitude testing
Telephone screening

Visiting our clients premises and meeting them to discuss their Human Resource needs is core business practice, as is thoroughly interviewing, assessing, referencing and pre-selecting every candidate for each individual vacancy.
