Add Galileo Search To Your Organisation

Our Foundation:

Galileo Search was founded on the basis that we wanted to challenge the standard recruitment model and offer a service that was valued in the market and removed from the standard sales driven approach used by most recruitment companies.

After considerable market research Galileo established that our clients all wanted the same thing. “The strongest talent in the market, within their approved budget”. As simple as this sounds, the feedback was that this was not achieved by our competitors.

Our Value:

We understand our clients don’t want to pay for services or talent they have access to. With improved technology , on-site recruitment teams and social media, most companies now have access to active talent pools of candidates.

“Our aim is to to have knowledge and advice that is not easily obtained, that is equally valued by our talent community and clients.”

Our Process:

Our process starts with our specialist IT Talent Pools. We are actively involved in our Talent communities across Data & Information Management, Online and IT Operations.

Galileo puts in considerable effort to keep our domain knowledge current. You will see us around IT Conferences, AGMs, Training, Seminars, Project Briefings, Networking Events and really anything that keeps our information and talent pools at the cutting edge. We work tirelessly to keep our talent pools informed as changes happen in their domains. Our up to the minute market knowledge, really is the key to our success as a valued recruitment partner.

Our Approach

Some Interesting facts about Galileo Search:

WE ONLY HIRE EXPERIENCED CONSULTANTS..

Each and every recruitment consultant you deal with at Galileo will be an experienced and specialist IT recruitment consultant with demonstrable experience in their domain.

WE ARE NOT ALL THINGS TO ALL PEOPLE…

By this we mean that we only work across 3 core IT markets. Galileo Search is a specialist agency and this is where we offer value, by way of knowing our talent pools, market conditions, project work and any other factors affecting our specialist domains, we can offer true value.

MARKET PROFILING….

Our candidate process is an ongoing process. Unlike most recruitment companies who obtain a job description, advertise + interview, send CVs then move on, at Galileo we see this as a small part of the process.

Our clients have the resources to access this candidate pool already and to add value our search is an ongoing process built over years of market profiling to retain and obtain the best passive talent in our markets.

THE CANDIDATE PROCESS…

Managing and interviewing Talent Pools, Market Research, Advertising, Referencing, Testing, Security Checks, On-Boarding, Advice, Salary Surveys, Quarterly Market Updates.

This is what we do! We see this as standard and something we do with passion.

ADDING VALUE…. IF WE CAN’T ADD VALUE, WE DON’T CHARGE ANYTHING!

Recruitment is notorious for not adding value and charging large fee’s for simply e-mailing out a CV.

We don’t believe that service is worth anything. At Galileo if we can’t offer value in the way of providing the “top talent” in the market and talent you would not normally have access to, we won’t charge for it!

Galileo is engaged when other avenues to secure the best talent have been exhausted. We are specialists in developing the most appropriate and effective recruitment strategy to identify the most suitable talent for your requirements and we are well equipped to deliver.

Please feel free to call or come down and see the team at Galileo to hear more about our unique approach to recruitment.

Our Difference

At Galileo we believe recruitment firms should offer a quality of service like any other profession and be equally valued for this service by our customers. In the same way Accounting, Law or Technology Services are engaged, have set deliverables and metrics to achieve, we believe recruitment should provide the same level of service.

A lot of the quality issues in the recruitment market come down the sales driven approach adopted by most recruitment operations looking to hit sales targets rather than trying to provide a valued service to the market.

We have challenged the traditional sales approach offered by some of the larger agencies to offer a service with accountability for quality and the ability to provide specialised domain knowledge to our candidates so they can make informed decisions on what they want to do with their careers rather than what we want.

We believe this service orientated approach to recruitment will shift our industry towards a service model rather than a sales model which will inevitably increase the satisfaction of everyone in the process.

Galileo engage as a downstream recruitment model for any business we work with and provide consultative specialist recruitment services for niche IT domains… We Believe this is our difference.

We believe in providing our best possible quality of service on all roles rather than cherry picking the easiest roles to fill and to do this effectively Galileo aims to work on an exclusive basis with each role and client This enables us to commit the time to deliver the best outcome.
