QUESTION 8 OF 35

How often do you follow up with your candidates after placed in a permanent role with your client?

Many staffing agencies will have a schedule of events when checking in with candidates after placing them with a client. These check-ins are vital as they are meant to ensure that your candidate is happy with their new placement and meets performance expectations.

Most staffing agencies offer a free replacement to their client should a candidate not work out for the best within 90 days of the start of their employment. For this reason, it's best practice to have regular check-ins for the first 90 days and into the candidate's first year. Show the interviewer that you understand the importance of this practice and that you are a diligent staffing professional.

"I have a schedule for checking in on every single one of my permanent placements. I check in on their first day and at the end of their first week. After their first week, I have a weekly check-in for the first 30 days. From then, every other week until they reach their 90 day probation period. From 90 days to year one, I schedule a monthly email. All of my candidates appreciate my diligence in ensuring they are happy with their placement. This action allows me to react to any potential situations before they become a major issue."
