Where are all the unemployed people
Have you been recruiting for trades people or engineering people recently?
And you are scratching your head, wondering where all the good people are?
I have to ask you a couple of questions. During the job keeper payment period did you let anyone go? Why?
Did you hang on to people – because you know they are good and they will pay for themselves. You went the extra kilometer and dropped their days down to four days a week or maybe even three days per week. Just to survive.
Well, have you worked out where all the good people are? They are still employed. You did’nt let go of your people. So, other companies have done the same.
As Engineering and trades recruitment specialist – we are now contacting people directly from our data base of talent. Not advertising jobs if we can help it. And we are finding them. The diamonds in the rough.
Hope this answers your questions.
