Introduction  Spartan Recruitment Services (also known as SRS) is a privately owned consultancy that provides a comprehensive range of solutions for the supply, management and administration of the human resources requirements across all market segments and industries. It is a well-known fact that employment of staff in South Africa has become increasingly difficult for employers over the past few years.  Spartan Recruitment Services CC has been operating since 1996 and is driven by a mission to find innovative solutions to the staffing needs of a diverse base of clients. Most organizations spend between 40 and 70 percent of their monthly operating budgets on human resources. When it comes to staffing – particularly, attracting and selecting the right candidates – bad decisions can have massive financial repercussions. Therefore, it makes good business sense for organizations to partner with specialists in attracting, selecting, managing and retaining the best workforce. Made with Xara
