Intro to Recruit I.T. GTS

Recruit I.T. GTS is the brainchild of Directors Kaleb Leeming and Ben Allen. Established in 2006, Recruit I.T has been offering contract and permanent resources to the technology community in New Zealand for many years, and has helped organisations to deliver their business goals in a timely and cost-efficient manner.

More recently, and prior to COVID, Recruit I.T. has been managing and onshoring capability and talent into the New Zealand market to help address growing talent shortages and fill specific technology skillsets that our customers need to scale their business and deliver numerous products and projects to their customers.

At present, Recruit I.T. has employed and migrated over 50 international candidates to New Zealand - this has resulted in projects being delivered on time along with significant cost savings.

Recruit I.T. Global Talent Solutions aims to bring high-skilled tech talent to your company quickly, affordably, and effectively. We have successfully created a global network of highly adept and intelligent I.T. professionals that can help scale your business scale for success.

1. How does RIT GTS work?

GTS offers bespoke solutions to cater to every business need. We can help relocate candidates to New Zealand or we can onboard candidates remotely using our partners around the globe. We’ve been running this model since 2014 so we are well-versed at finding a solution to every resourcing problem!



2. How is it different from other recruitment offerings in NZ?

Recruit I.T. utilises international talent to fill the gaps when the local market is talent-short or lacks niche skillsets. We follow and curate a model that is both efficient and cost-effective, and low risk.

Reach out to our Director Kaleb Leeming to know more about our scope of work and services.

3. What skills can the clients access/roles can they fill with GTS that they can’t through traditional recruitment?

There really isn’t an I.T. role that can’t be filled! NZ has a smaller pool of talent than other countries, so when you start looking for staff in specific areas of I.T., it’s easy to falter . We’ve had success recruiting in the development space (Java, Ruby, Mobile), as well as platform specific expertise including Salesforce, Dynamics, PEGA, SAP, ServiceNow, and Workday to name a few. We would love to help other businesses in NZ to capture talent not easily accessible in the New Zealand market.

4. How have offshore candidates changed over the years in terms of their non-negotiables for new work opportunities i.e., higher salary, permanently migrating to NZ, etc.?

Overseas candidates certainly have more options now the world has opened. So, flexibility, team culture, and working on an exciting project are normally high on the wish list, along with salary. For those candidates looking to migrate from overseas, we are seeing those with families being put off by all the media around the high cost of living right now, and typically countries that have been seen as a lower cost, have risen in salaries through the increase in the remote workforce and countries such as the US a Europe expanding there reach globally.

5. How does your engagement model work?

Each engagement will differ depending on the outcome you are looking to achieve. However, we generally run three (3) types of models for our customers:

Offshore/Remote Capability: We hire these individuals as either permanent or contractors, and they work based in their own country (most often, the Philippines), within the New Zealand time zone.

Offshore to Onshore Capability: This is a hybrid model to the offshore capability, where customers contract capability remotely, experience whether individuals are suitable, then at a future date look to bring these individuals into NZ.

Onshore Capability: Here we go straight to moving candidates into New Zealand. We can either take the risk on and hire them permanently or facilitate the recruitment process where our customers can hire them permanently directly.

(For Clients)

Q: When can we start hiring employees?

A: We would organise an initial briefing to understand your requirements along with what one of our service offerings would work best for you. From what, we would begin preparing an initial short-list with the view of interviews within 1 – 2 weeks.

Q: What’s the step-by-step process in availing the services?

A:

• You provide us with your requirements.
• We will find a small shortlist of talent for you to interview.
• Once you are happy making an offer, we will work through the immigration process (for onshoring) or the onboarding process (for those working remotely offshore)
• Your new hire starts!

Q: Do we need to pay for your services even if there were no successful hires?

A: No. You only pay a success fee if we are successful in placing a hire.

Q: What other services do you provide?

A: Outside of offshore talent, we can supply local contract and permanent recruitment services.

Q: How long does the recruitment process take?
