OPEN DAYS

One of our most popular method of attracting candidates is organising an Open Day. Essentially open days are an opportunity for potential members of staff to meet face to face with some of your current team, ask questions and further their understanding of what it is like to work for your business.

Open Days are also a great way to advertise your business to the public. You won’t hire every job seeker that walks through the door, but they may return to your establishment as a customer.

In order for your business to host a successful open day it is important that there is good organisation, communication and coordination. We can help you organise your Open Day and ensure you meet with only qualified candidates.

Open Days are beneficial to both the job seeker and employer. It gives an opportunity for the job seeker to meet people from inside your establishment.

It gives them a better understanding of the way your business functions.

Open Days are beneficial to the employer as you get a better insight of the job seeker in a more social setting. You can see how they interact with others, how they present themselves outside of the job setting and also get to meet them face to face, which is a huge advantage when recruiting internationally.
