Our clients provide us with an extensive list of what they are looking for in an employee, and we aim to find the candidate that would best fit within that environment.
Other benefits from an employee and business owners perspective include:
-
Decrease hiring process wait times.
As a candidate, it can be exhausting waiting for a position to come up. Additionally, we understand how tiresome it can be to find the right person for the job as a company. However, with our matching skills, we will find a range of quality matches quickly and efficiently. -
Access to our extensive contact list.
At MJD Recruitment, we find candidates with the right experience and skills to suit your business. We have a great list of clients and candidates who have undergone screening and interviews. Our team carefully selects all matches and understands the goals of both our clients and our candidates. -
Initiative for the future.
We understand that not all candidates are actively searching for their next job opportunity. However, we have the contacts to reach passive talent and reach out to potential candidates about current job opportunities.
- Flexibility and resilience. A personal assistant should embody these qualities, as balancing your work and personal life is incredibly important, and one must prepare themselves to work late at times and start work early. Additionally, being a PA means you may have to drop what you're doing, even outside of business hours, to complete a request for your employer.
- Self-motivation. Motivating yourself to get through a workload or daily schedule with a positive attitude can be challenging at times. Therefore, a personal assistant must be self-motivating to get the tasks completed quickly and efficiently.
- Organisational skills. Staying on top of tasks is essential as a personal assistant. An employer will provide a personal assistant with a range of tasks and expect them to be completed at a high level. Therefore, ensuring a personal assistant has strong organisational skills is key to finding a great personal assistant.
- Detail orientated. Being detail orientated ensures that a personal assistant is observant and avoids costly mistakes. The workplace can, at times, be distracting, with many different activities going on. Therefore it’s crucial that employees are focused and can pick up on small and big errors.
