The next wave in business has revealed a trend of competing through intellectual capital, where ideas and motivation of key talent impacts on the bottom line. The single critical success factor of today's leading organisations is to employ the highest calibre of employees. Organisations have realised that the allure of the "human dimension" of business lies outside their core competency and are looking to recruitment consultancies to forge powerful partnerships, in order to meet and satisfy their recruitment needs. The key to this relationship is the careful selection of which consultancy should represent them in the labour market. With over 1000 agencies to choose from in South Africa, this task can be challenging. "Fly-by-night" agencies exist due to the low barrier of entry into the recruitment sector, and although they don't last very long, there is a constant influx of them. Consultancies need to prove and entrench themselves firmly as market as leaders. After nearly three decades of successfully exceeding this challenge, The Personnel Concept embodies a human resource philosophy that extends beyond the general tasks of personnel placement, which prevailed when it was founded in 1982. The Personnel Concept, has surfed the recruitment waves as leaders in specialist recruitment. In their specialist areas of focus namely Finance, ICT and Engineering, it is successfully positioned to provide top calibre candidates opportunities accross the areas of specilisation. Behind this success lies a well-oiled management team, a group of skilled consultants with exceptional experience and an efficient support structure that has allowed them to become entrenched within many leading organisations in South Africa. The company was founded on an ethic of integrity and professionalism, which has fostered sound, long-term business relationships with both clients and candidates. It has adapted innovatively to evolving market conditions in line with their primary mandate to source the best talent available and to build lasting relationships between both clients and candidates. In the current "Information Age", which recognises the primacy of intellectual capital, The Personnel Concept's philosophy of professional and technical specialisation has truly come into its own, resulting in exponential growth in an increasingly complex market. In order to meet today's business requirement of improving the productivity per employee and retention of staff, the need to ensure that you employ the highest calibre of employee is increasingly more critical. Companies can benefit from The Personnel Concept's extensive industry expertise and knowledge of their specialist markets. Their ability to secure and place skilled, experienced professionals in a discreet, business solution oriented, and focused manner, sets them apart from the general recruitment industry. Recruitment has changed significantly over the last 30 years, in the past a successful agency was one that could match a candidate to specific criteria of a company. Today's recruitment game, defines success as the ability to align a candidate to the values, culture and strategic vision of a company, and an exceptional consultant is one that delivers beyond expectations through cultivating a profound, far flung network. It is not uncommon for some clients to employ exceptional candidates introduced by a trusted recruitment partner when there are no "open vacancies" but rather for strategic reasons. In this way The Personnel Concept has built long-term relationships with clients that rely on them to consistently supply them with candidates who make an impact on their bottom line. The Personnel Concept has been instrumental in removing the recruitment burden from their clients through their commitment to their partnerships, and their consistent ability to attract, source and maintain high calibre candidates in specialist focused markets, where limited resource pools prevail. The Personnel Concept understands the privileged relationship they have with clients, we maintain and foster these by performing a vital service to business and industry by bringing effectiveness, efficiency and confidence to the process of finding and employing talent, thereby shaping corporate futures.
