·         SJS is a free employment service

LSG Sky Chefs New Zealand Ltd, Auckland:

"When it’s free, the value is incalculable!  We found the right people with minimum fuss – great! Furthermore the flexibility that SJS offers is fantastic. We needed specific skills for the Christmas and New Year period and we got it. It was an obvious synergy”

- Ashton Dempsey, HR Manager

·         Placement fees from employment agencies range from 9-18 percent of the wage/salary amount

Software Support Training (SST), Canterbury:

 “Not having to spend money on finding staff is really attractive for our business. We have never needed to use any other employment agency as we have always been able to find the person with the skills we require with SJS.”

-  Warren Bailey, Manager

·         An employer can receive literally hundreds of applicants per job

Telecom, Invercargill:

“SJS took the time constraints away, screened well, and the applicants they referred were right on the mark."

- Des Carey, Manager

Thermaflo, Palmerston North:

“Using SJS means I don’t have to go through heaps of people to find a suitable person. They have always managed to send a person who has been exceptional. Hiring a student means we are getting someone who is eager to put his\her studies into practice, which means we benefit from someone who is keen and willing to get the job done." - Rowena, Financial Controller

·         SJS can advertise and shortlist applicants in between one and five working days in more than 60% of jobs over summer.   The average time to find applicants through other websites is 1-30 days

Department Of Labour, Wellington: 

"No other employment agency gives us the opportunity to find readily available people who can fill a job vacancy straight away. I found value in the very quick turn around time from when we list the jobs to when the jobs were filled."

- Louis Dickenson, Senior Recruitment Assistant

·         Other employment agencies have a lengthy lead time to find staff compared to SJS

“Using a traditional agency for the recruitment process would normally take around six to eight weeks per hire”

- Human Resource Institute of NZ, www.hrinz.org.nz

“It is particularly good to have a free service in the current economic climate and it is helpful to have access to possible future permanent employees without paying engagement fees. All the students that I have come into contact with through SJS have been enthusiastic, quick learners and very suitable for my positions."

- Chris Chapmen, Director
