HR Outsourcing

Outsourcing is a method – commonly used in other fields of business – where an organisation can complete tasks requiring high level of expertise without having to create and operate additional significant internal resources.

Instead of internal resources which are expensive to establish and maintain, as well as being difficult to fully exploit, it means assigning an expert company only when it is actually necessary. Therefore the high costs of directly employing staff to which organisations are extremely sensitive, can be considerably reduced.

By employing the services of Gradus Consulting , the various national and international methods developed and introduced in the field of HR become available to those companies that would not normally have the chance to try them. Frequently, their size or the cost of maintaining their own resources would not be efficient, but at the same time they are in need of high quality HR work from an organisational point of view.

Our HR outsourcing services are as follows, among others:

- total outsourcing of the a HR function,
- personnel administration,
- elaborating personnel and employment regulations,
- publishing online, off line job advertisements, pre-selection of incoming CVs, management of client database,
- scope of work analysis and evaluation, establishing the competence frame,
- performance evaluation, personnel development, estimating of training needs.

Tests

By applying different tests, we can gain important additional information about the personality of future employees. Naturally, the tests cannot replace the impressions of a job interview; however, they are suitable for refining the picture established during the personal discussion.

In case of certain positions, where some competencies are of key importance, test results are almost indispensable for well-founded decisions.

Psychological tests we apply can support the selection process with the following information:

- tolerance for monotonousness
- conflict management skills
- general intelligence
- refined personality mapping

The suitable type of personality and intelligence tests are applied according to the Client’s requirements. Testing and evaluation is carried out by a skilled psychologist consultant with outstanding experiences in the field, who also elaborates an overall expert opinion about the candidates.
