Course Title/Description  Course Title: Direct Hire Program  Course Description: This course “Direct Hire Program” is designed for students with little or no experience with the Randstad direct hire process. It provides students with three major areas of expertise in direct hire for their roles as managers and directors. The three areas of focus are how to find candidates, how to approach the client and how to close the deal. Students will participate in instruction with their peers and leaders, role- play and practice in sessions. Students will leave the course with a better understanding of the direct hire process and they will have the tools they need to be successful at their location.

Organizational Need  The organization charges a fee for direct hire, this is instant revenue for the organization  When the client directly hires a candidate the client assumes all risk with the candidate, this equals significant savings for Randstad.  At the present time site managers and coordinators do not have confidence in direct hire, the organization needs them in order to make and the exceed direct hire goals  When the site manager and coordinators close the deal on direct hire with their candidate they and the organization gain creditability with their client

Closing In closing, the organization and the employees will benefit greatly from hosting a course that will build more awareness, accountability and confidence around direct hire. Right now site managers and coordinators are not successfully meeting goals for direct hire, they are not confident and they are not excited about direct hire. After the course students will be more confident and excited! They will have the opportunity to build an even better relationship with their client and to put some more money in their pockets and organizations.
