Looking for staff? Trust our practical experience.

Nowadays, finding good staff is no longer a matter of posting a vacancy and waiting. The labour market has changed. Significantly. Whether you are active in construction, logistics, healthcare or cleaning, finding suitable people requires time, attention and realism. At Joetoe, we see every day how high the demand is. Employers are actively searching, but often get stuck.

Why finding staff is now more difficult than ever

We are all feeling the tension in the labour market. The demand for staff is growing, while supply is lagging behind. At the same time, what people consider important in a job is changing. A good salary still counts, but things like flexibility, job satisfaction and a pleasant atmosphere are becoming increasingly important. As an employer, you therefore have to offer more than just work. We also often see that job vacancies remain too general. As a result, you don’t really attract anyone. Anyone looking for staff today needs to dare to look differently. At the content of the work, at theTranslated with DeepL.com (free version)

What employers can do before they start searching

Before you start recruiting, it is wise to first think carefully about the position internally. What exactly do you expect from a new employee, and what do you have to offer? Is it clear what the position entails and what someone can expect from you? We have noticed that employers who are clear and realistic about this find good matches much more quickly. Make sure your job description is clear, that your terms of employment are in line with the market, and that you also think about how you will properly supervise someone. It all starts with good preparation.

How Joetoe helps employers find the right match

At Joetoe, we don’t believe in quick placements without attention. We always start with a good conversation. We want to know how your company works, what you need and, above all, what kind of person would be the best fit. Our strength lies in our local network and personal contact. Because we know many people in the region, we can respond quickly. And because we get to know candidates well, we know who is a good fit. So if you are looking for staff and want someone who will not only start but also stay, you have come to the right place.

What successful matches teach us about good employment practices

In practice, we see that the best collaborations arise when there is clarity from the outset. Employees who feel welcome stay longer. Employers who take the time to welcome new people properly reap many benefits. Often, it’s the little things that make the difference. A good explanation, a designated contact person, asking how things are going. It sounds simple, but it makes the difference between a temporary worker and a long-term colleague. We believe that investing in good employment practices is not a luxury, but the basis for successful recruitment.

Recruiting staff is no longer easy. The market is tight and expectations have changed. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. At Joetoe, we help employers who are looking for people who are a good fit every day. We think along with you, ask critical questions and keep searching until we find the right match. We do this with care and with knowledge of how the market works here. So, have you been looking for staff and want to take a different approach this time? Get in touch with us.
