By leveraging our expertise, networks and resources, Mk2 Recruitment specialises in placing permanent professionals for companies across the full range of industries – while finding rewarding, fulfilling positions that become careers for those looking for a permanent role. Here is what sets Mk2 apart:

Candidate assessment

We always take the time and do the work to fully assess candidates' skills, experience and qualifications to identify suitable roles – but also their commitment to taking on a permanent role.

Industry insights

Whatever roles you need to fill we are your recruitment partner, able to provide invaluable information about your specific industry’s employment trends, including salary ranges and into competitors’ recruitment strategies and insights.

Job posting

There is a science to finding candidates, and we are here to help ensure that news of the job openings you need to fill engage with the right potential candidates – on the channels and platforms that are the most relevant to them.

Visa and work permits

Ensuring that employee legislation is met is just another role we are happy to take on for our clients – especially in the growing need to recruit from overseas.

Whatever the role, whatever the duration, whatever the industry, Mk2 Recruitment specialises in linking great people with great companies. We fill temporary job opportunities with the same exacting standards of diligence that we have become renowned for in filling permanent roles. Our approach includes:

Speed and efficiency

The very nature of temporary roles to fill rarely allows time to filter through candidates. Normally, these positions need to be filled within days, or even hours. This is where Mk2 Recruitment excels, by maintaining an available talent pool ready to go. 

We learn the role first

Before we can find suitable candidates, we ensure we fully absorb the intricacies of the role – including the working arrangements, the hours, the location and the level of fitness recruits may need to be able to accomplish the tasks.

Certified and qualified

In our experience, the need to fill a temporary role is often a desperate one – for example, a full-time employee might have taken ill. So the last thing you need is a short-term recruit to arrive under qualified. It’s our job to ensure this doesn’t happen.

Skilling up to meet your needs

Temporary roles are often a way to test the chemistry between a recruit and employer – and we’re often asked if a short-term recruit can be trained to take on a more skilled and permanent role. Absolutely!

Industries throughout Australia continue to face staffing and recruitment challenges which is why it’s critical that we support our trainees and apprentices with career growing opportunities. Here is how Mk2 Recruitment is playing its part:

A pipeline of talent

At Mk2 Recruitment we are happy help our clients build graduate programs and apprenticeships. And for the individuals that shine, we are here to help with onboarding, contracts and inductions.

The cream of the crop

By remaining aware of the trainees and apprentices coming out of colleges and trade schools – we have a good idea of the talent available to our clients – allowing us to find the top young talent on your behalf.

Shape and mould

We see the lack of industry experience that trainees and apprentices have as a way for you to train them into exactly what you need. And we are here to help you transform them into valuable employees.

Fresh energy

Clients often tell how the introduction of trainees and apprentices to their team adds spirit and vitality. This is because we look for candidates that are eager to learn, willing to listen and always wanting to go the extra mile.
