A flexible solution to find the right talent

Get in touch

When is staffing the optimal solution?

When...

  • You need talent fast
  • The duration of the resource need is hard to predict
  • Headcount restrictions prevent direct hires
  • You want to outsource administrative employer responsibilities
  • You need to scale resources flexibly

...Staffing is the go-to solution our clients choose.

Academic Work’s consultants are always available for hire. If a short-term need evolves into a long-term one, the consultant can be permanently employed by your company. We're committed to ensuring our services adapt to your changing business needs.

Benefits of staffing

Thanks to our talent network and streamlined processes, we can find the right candidate fast.

In changing situations, you have full flexibility: end the assignment, extend it, or hire our consultant as your own employee.

“For years, we’ve received fast, expert support during for example peak periods. This has been a flexible way to scale our team, and many of the consultants are now our permanent employees.”

Our staffing process in 6 steps

01

Define

Our work starts with understanding your needs. Really understanding. We begin with a thorough work and needs analysis to pinpoint the key tasks, skills, abilities, and behaviours required for the role. By defining these upfront, we ensure we're on the same page.

02

Attract

This involves crafting job ads, engaging relevant target groups, and using targeted search strategies to reach both wide and relevant. We make sure that the job description reflects the work environment and expectations, giving candidates a clear sense of what the role involves.

03

Assess

We use a variety of proven tools to assess candidates. This includes psychometric testing, profile screening, structured interviews, and knowledge evaluation. Our aim is to not just assess skills, but also potential, ensuring we get a full picture. The goal is consistency and objectivity in the selection process, ensuring no one is judged based on bias or assumptions (or just CV:s)

04

Verify

To make sure we have found your perfect fit, clients are encouraged to verify the assessments through further interviews and checks. This step gives extra confidence that the candidate not only meets the expectations but will thrive in the role. Top candidates are presented to the client, with a rounded picture of each and how they might fit within your team.

05

Hire

We get the contract signed. This smooth transition from recruitment to employment ensures the new hire feels supported from day one, helping them settle in quickly and start contributing.

06

Follow up

Academic Work will follow up the recruitment making sure it was successful.

How we work

Our evidence-based recruitment relies on data, not guesswork

Evidence-based recruitment is rigorous, systematic, and designed to find the right fit every time. It is a smarter, data-driven way to hire, focusing on what really matters for job success. Instead of putting too much weight on CVs or cover letters, we use proven methods to assess constructs like cognitive ability, personality, career interests, and knowledge depth – qualities that are actually linked to great performance.
