Recruiting new teaching staff can be an expensive activity, so using a recruitment agency to help find candidates has always been seen as an additional cost. While there are, of course, costs associated with working with an agency, the benefits are numerous and offer far more than a bunch of CVs for you to sift through.

The gift of time
A great recruitment agency will take the time to get to know your school, college or institution and understand exactly what you’re looking for in a teacher. That way you won’t waste time interviewing unsuitable teachers and instead get to spend more time with only the top candidates. Recruitment agencies conduct ‘mini’ interviews with candidates and eliminate from the process anyone who doesn’t meet your criteria, meaning you’ll only be given relevant candidates to review.
The talent pool
Agencies will often have a wide network of candidates they can access through various databases as well as through relationships they’ve built with candidates previously. At T15 International, we have methods for attracting passive candidates as well as identifying the best candidates currently searching for new opportunities.
The screening process
Vetting and screening candidates is important for any recruitment agency, but for those recruiting staff to work with under 18s, it’s absolutely vital. Vetting and screening can be an arduous task but at T15 International we have a dedicated, independent vetting and screening team who adhere to the highest professional standards. Working with an agency such as T15 will not only save you time and money, but will also bring peace of mind that the teachers you’re looking to employ have been vigorously screened.
