But what exactly is employment mediation? And how does it relate to recruitment and staffing services such as interim recruitment, secondment and executive search? In this article we dive into the world of modern mediation, including secondment, and show how Circle8 connects employers and candidates.
What is employment mediation?
Employment mediation is the process by which a specialized agency or staffing agency matches professionals with employers. This can involve permanent employees, interim professionals, temporary support, or filling specialist roles. The goal? To make the right match based on skills, personality, availability and company culture.
Circle8 has long specialized in connecting talent with leading clients across a range of sectors, including the financial sector, accounting, healthcare, engineering and IT. Thanks to our many years of experience and broad network, we can quickly and effectively recruit, select and introduce candidates.
Different forms of employment mediation
Employment mediation takes many forms. Which form fits depends on the assignment, duration, complexity and desired guidance, and the specific challenge that comes with it:
1. Recruitment & Selection
In recruitment and selection, the agency looks for the right candidate for a permanent position. After the selection and a successful introduction, the candidate is employed directly by the employer. Circle8 provides guidance in this process, conducts intake interviews, assesses competencies and carefully approaches candidates via other channels such as e-mail, LinkedIn and its own talent pools.
2.Secondment
With secondment, the professional is employed by Circle8 and is seconded to the client. This offers flexibility and security. Ideal for long-term projects, temporary replacement, or when specialist knowledge is required. Our secondment consultants provide professional guidance, market-competitive employment conditions and clear communication.
3. Interim Recruitment and Interim-Management
In interim recruitment we (temporarily) take over the recruitment process. That may be necessary during a reorganization, rapid growth or when starting up a new branch. In interim-management we place an experienced interim professional or manager who temporarily leads or guides a change process.
4. Executive Search
For senior or executive-level positions we use executive search, focusing on experienced managers. This service requires discretion, specialization and a keen eye for company culture. We approach candidates in a targeted way and guide the entire process: from intake to appointment.
