Find people who fit the role and the culture.

End-to-end recruitment for South African businesses — search, screening, interviews, references, onboarding. We close the loop you don't have time to.

Every hire is a R-million decision when you count the salary, the onboarding, the productivity ramp, and the cost of getting it wrong. HR Labs runs your recruitment process the way an in-house team would — but for a fraction of the cost.

What we deliver

  • Brief & scorecard — we sit with the hiring manager and pin down what "good" actually looks like.
  • Sourcing & advertising — LinkedIn, niche boards, our network, and direct headhunting where needed.
  • Screening & shortlisting — CV review, telephonic interviews, role-fit assessment.
  • Interview support — interview guides, panel coaching, scoring sheets.
  • References & checks — work history, qualifications, credit & criminal where applicable.
  • Offer & onboarding — package design, contract issue, first-90-days plan.

How we charge

Two simple options. Contingency — a percentage of first-year cost-to-company, paid only when the placement starts. Or retained search for senior / hard-to-fill roles — a fixed fee in three milestones, with a dedicated researcher and full market mapping.
