standards. Too many people out there are out to “make a quick buck” and don’t really care how they do it. You need someone you can trust absolutely.

You get – affordable pricing with great service
Not to mention impeccable ethics, extensive industry knowledge and an enviable network of potential candidates.
You will never regret making contact with SM Placement to discuss your staffing problems. Our business is based on offering you value for money and following up with first rate service

Getting it right – first time
Hiring someone who does not fit is a wasteful process and our selection process substantially reduces this possibility. Our candidates undergo a complete screening and we use proven interviewing techniques to ensure that the candidates we present you are entirely suitable for the position.
It goes without saying that candidates must fit into your company, your corporate culture and your way of doing things. Again we are very conscious of these factors in our selection process and we have a system in pace which classifies our candidates according to various criteria – all designed to ensure a round peg in a round hole.



Our corporate value system

We build confidence in our clients with our strong emphasis on integrity and client service. Our team is dynamic – we get things done quickly and right first time. We are professional and aspire to excellence in everything we do. To illustrate this we recall when a client – an NGO - needed a doctor urgently to handle HIV patients in a rural area. At that time doctors were really difficult to come by. We had a few on our books but our interviewing process just did not match any applicant with the position. Rather than waste the client’s time sending unsuitable we told our client the situation. Eventually a temporary assignment was given to a qualified nursing sister until the appropriate doctor was appointed
Areas of Specialisation
We have candidates in the following fields:

Healthcare
NGOs
General
HR Services
Sales and Marketing

Healthcare and NGOs
This job market in Africa has one prominent feature. The extremely high incidence of HIV/AIDS has created numerous new positions which need to be filled by qualified personnel. Our extensive network of healthcare providers has had huge success in filling positions like this.
Obviously there are also many other positions in this market and if you are a healthcare employer then you will benefit from talking to SM Placements. We have been in this market for over a decade and have built up a large network of candidates as well as extensive knowledge of the market.

Sales and Marketing
Sales staffs are very different to professional staff. A salesperson is usually driven by incentives. A good salesperson – one with all the skills as well as professional ethics – can prove invaluable. The right match of a sales professional with a fitting package can increase your turnover substantially. Likewise marketing staff are a breed on their own and a good marketer can mean the world to the promotion of your business.
SM Placements have years of experience recruiting these staff, and have an established network of potentials. So I you need someone in your sales and marketing team just contact us.

General
Do you want a secretary – a clerk – a manager – or any one of a multitude of jobs? Chances are that we will have what you are looking for registered with us. As our reputation has grown so has our list of candidates.
We keep a register and when it looks like we may be able to match a job with an applicant we interview – and if appropriate we take it further.

 
For all candidates:
We do pre-employment screening including:
 Checking Criminal records.
 Verification of ID and Citizenship.
 Verification of qualifications.
 Checking Employment references.
 Where appropriate, check verify that assets and liabilities are correct (e.g. for Directors).

A presence throughout Sub-Saharan Africa

If you are in Africa then we can help. Our roots are African and we understand African People and African Business. We have assisted people in Nigeria, Malawi, Tanzania and Zambia to name but a few.
Operating from Gauteng, we have representation in Gauteng, Cape Town and Durban, and if you are not in one of these cities we can still help. The internet has changed the way we all do business and we can reach you with teleconferences, Skype, emails etc. Wherever you are in Africa don’t hesitate to contact us.


HR Services

We have found that with the extremely complicated labour and employment laws in South Africa, we are often asked for advice. To be a professional in Human Resources, one must have in-depth experience, knowledge and absolute integrity.

Our HR advice department offers all these features and can help your business by:

 Providing advice on labour and employment law;
 Providing specimen employment contracts;
 Conducting psychometric testing;
 Providing guidelines on disciplinary procedures against an unsatisfactory employee;
 Assisting in terminating services.

Our Interactive Website

Fundamental to our business process is our comprehensive interactive website. There are several levels at which you can enter our system – from a basic process where candidates are matched with your requirements to subscription based services where you can advertise, recruit and generally take advantage of our comprehensive range of candidates.
The more advanced options allow data management including statistical information such as viewing the number of responses your advertisement has received. There are connections to the social networks such as Facebook and Twitter providing almost unlimited potential for recruiting appropriate individuals.
We suggest that you discuss these options with us in order to determine the most favourable approach for your business
