Overview
Jamma’s Permanent Recruitment Service responds to the needs of both employers and applicants by helping to place the right person in the right position. Our Permanent Recruitment division specialises in the effective recruitment of permanent staff for positions ranging from entry-level IT skills to senior-level information technology management. A highly skilled and professional Jamma IT consultant is assigned to provide complete personalised service to our clients. The consultant will quickly and thoroughly understand your hiring needs based on your goals and culture. Jamma adds value to the recruitment process. Our consultant's expertise and experience means we offer proven techniques and strategies including proprietary behavioural assessments that ensure the candidates selected possess the qualities that will complement your corporate culture and enhance your bottom line.

Benefits of Jamma IT Permanent Recruitment
Jamma can access a much larger pool of potential applicants than can an individual employer. In addition to advertising expertise, Jamma also has large databases of potential employees representing the best talent in the marketplace. From this large pool, Jamma-IT screens all applicants, presenting the employer with a short list of candidates, all of whom are qualified and suitable for the job. This allows an employer to fill a position quickly and efficiently. Because the employer's name does not appear in advertisements and is not divulged to applicants until very late in the screening process, employers also enjoy the advantage of confidentiality. This confidentially ensures that competitors are not alerted to sensitive information about turnover rates and staff changes, and unsuccessful applicants (who may be existing or potential customers) are not left with any negative feelings toward the company. When all the costs of recruitment are taken into account, using Jamma can offer employers considerable savings. The employer's staff and executives do not have to divert their time from other important projects to answer calls, read resumés, and interview large numbers of applicants.

Our Process
Jamma’s IT Permanent Recruitment division specialises in the effective recruitment of permanent staff for positions ranging from entry-level Information Technology to senior-level IT management. Jamma’s services assure you of cost efficiency, speed and convenience. A highly skilled and professional Jamma consultant is assigned to provide complete personalised services to our clients. The consultant will quickly and thoroughly understand your hiring needs based on your goals and culture. Jamma adds value to the recruitment process. Our consultants' expertise and experiences means we offer proven techniques and strategies including proprietary behavioural assessments that ensure the candidates selected possess the qualities that will complement your corporate culture and enhance your bottom line. All recruitment information received from the client is confidential and is used only upon direct instruction. The following steps outline Jamma’s standard recruitment and selection process for all permanent applications. All applicants complete these steps in order to pre-qualify and create a match between candidates to client job positions.

Face-to-Face Position Profile
it is our policy to establish a one-to-one, consultative relationship with our clients to work as a team to ensure that all of your specific requirements are met in a cost-effective manner. An initial meeting between a client representative and a Jamma consultant will provide a full understanding of the client's operations, the industry, how the vacant position fits into the organization, the position's responsibilities, the direct work environment and the values held by the direct report manager. The benefits of identifying these intangibles are of vital importance to the performance of new employees.

File Search and Advertising
Upon receipt of the job specification from the client, an on-line computerised file search of our candidate banks is performed. Suitable candidate profiles will be extracted and evaluated for placement, and quite often, a same day referral will be made to the client. On occasion, to provide the client with a larger selection of candidates, a client paid advertisement will be placed in the appropriate media. Our consultants are skilled in creating advertisements that immediately attract suitable applicants. All applicants are interviewed by telephone and our consultants will request the resumés of suitable applicants to be forwarded that day for consideration. The resumés will be reviewed by the consultant to identify those applicants who meet the selection criteria of the client. Those selected will be immediately contacted for an interview and assessments with Jamma.

Interviewing
Jamma uses the most effective method of interviewing, Behavioural Descriptive Interviewing. The basic principle of this interviewing technique is based on the ideal that the best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour in similar circumstances. All candidates considered suitable for the client position will be asked the same questions relating to the relevant selection criteria. This will ensure that evaluation of all candidates is based upon the same factors. Only those candidates successful at this stage will be considered for further assessments.

Skills Assessment and Personality Profiles
To provide the client with candidates who best fit the selection criteria, each candidate can complete the appropriate specialised Jamma IT Recruitment assessment package (at a costing to the client) selected by the consultants. The results will be analysed to contribute to the final candidate recommendations to be made to the client. To find out which assessment package is correct for your position please contact your Senior Account Manager who is handling your requirement.

Reference Checking
Reference checking is viewed by Jamma as an essential component of the screening process. Information gained by the consultant enables verification of personal facts provided by the candidate and ascertains strengths, weaknesses and work attitudes. Our consultants obtain a minimum of two references directly from past employers and, if possible or required, on a face-to-face basis. The reference information is added to all other data to provide an overall picture of the candidate's suitability to meet the client's needs.

Candidate Selection and Client interviewing
Upon completion of our screening and appraisal process, the candidates who best meet the selection criteria will be identified by our consultants and referred to the client for consideration. The client will be provided with candidate resumés, test results and justification for the referral by our consultants. Interviews will be scheduled at times suitable for the client. Our consultant will coordinate and confirm the candidates' attendance at the agreed times. Interviews can be held on client premises, or using the local Jamma office or selective venues which are appropriate to the Client and the Candidate respectively.

Client and Candidate Feedback
Our consultants will follow-up with each candidate after an interview to obtain feedback concerning the position and the interview. Our consultants are skilled in sourcing both positive and negative feedback from the candidate to ensure that the client will be provided with a person who truly wants the placement. Jamma will provide the client with the candidates' feedback and seek feedback from you regarding the interviewed candidates. This data will be analysed to ensure the best possible match for the client and the new employee.

Acceptance Confirmed
Jamma will contact the successful candidate on the client's behalf to offer the position and discuss salary, start date and other relevant information. The client will be immediately informed of the candidate's acceptance. Unsuccessful candidates will be contacted by our consultants and provided with feedback on the selection process. The client will then commence its internal employment procedures with the selected candidate.

After Placement Service
The progress of each employee placed with the client will be monitored by our consultants for the duration of the guarantee period. Advice and assistance will be provided where necessary to ensure the client's complete satisfaction with Jamma's recruitment and selection service. Through our after placement service we also arrange for one of our area business development account managers to contact you to make a mutual time to catch-up directly to view your feedback first-hand and to be able to assist you in your future employment requirements.
