Recruitment Drives

Your own hiring day, filled with the right people.

For employers hiring in volume. We run your recruitment drive or walk-in interview day end to end and fill the room, so you interview and hire on the spot.

25,000+ Employers in our network 50+ Career fairs a year Volume & campus hiring
What it is

Your own hiring day, built around your roles.

A recruitment drive is a hiring event for your company alone, or shared with up to three others. We find and screen the candidates, run the day and hand you the data, so your team spends its time interviewing rather than organising.

Your venue

At your office, or a venue you choose, such as a hotel.

Why Talentbank

We are recruiters with reach.

Talentbank runs the nation's career fairs and reaches candidates across universities nationwide, from our own databases and the wider market. Where your targets can be met, we over-deliver. Where they cannot, we tell you upfront.

Why it matters

A walk-in day only works if people walk in.

A walk-in day to an empty room is worse than not running one. What matters is reach and organisation: the right candidates there, and every one seen. Unlike a career fair, where you share the floor, this is your event alone, built around your roles.

At a career fair

  • Walk-in and open to all.
  • You share the floor with other employers.
  • You meet candidates and shortlist on the day. There is no screening.

At a recruitment drive

  • Your event, built around your roles.
  • Candidates are promoted to, registered and screened before the day.
  • You see registration numbers in advance, so you know where you stand.
How it works

Simple from the first call.

1

Brief

You tell us the roles, volume, timeline and location.

2

Plan

We agree the campaign strategy and who to target.

3

Attract & screen

We source, promote and pre-qualify the candidates.

4

Hire day

Your event, run end to end. You interview and hire on the spot.

5

Follow-up

Plan ahead if you can. Three to six months before the day is ideal.

Good to know

Is a drive right for you?

The right size

A drive is worthwhile from about 10 to 20 hires, built for high-volume hiring.

Plan ahead

Ideally three to six months before the day, so there is time to reach the right people.

In person or online

Drives usually run in person. They can run online as well.

Combine, or keep it quiet

A drive can be combined with LinkedIn Talent Campaigns, and it can run for a confidential expansion.

For a few hires, or for more visibility, a career fair is usually the better first step.

Questions

Asked and answered.

What is a recruitment drive?

Your own hiring day, built around your roles, for your company alone or shared with up to three others. It is held at your office or a venue you choose, such as a hotel. We promote it to the candidates you want, and you see registrations before the day.

How is it different from a career fair?

A career fair is walk-in and open to all, and you share the floor, so you meet candidates and shortlist on the day. A recruitment drive is your event alone, with candidates promoted to, registered and screened for your roles.

How many hires make it worthwhile?

From about 10 to 20 hires. For a few hires or more visibility, a career fair booth or a free listing on Talentbank Career Passport suits better.

Can you guarantee a number of candidates?

We do not promise a number up front. You see registration numbers before the day, so you know where you stand. Where your targets can be met, we over-deliver. Where they cannot, we tell you upfront.

How far ahead should we plan?

Ideally three to six months before the drive.

When and where does it take place?

Drives usually run on a Saturday morning, around 10am to 2pm, with a dedicated project manager. The venue is your office, our space or one you choose, such as a hotel. A drive can run online as well as in person.

Can it be combined with other services, or kept confidential?

Yes to both. A drive can be combined with LinkedIn Talent Campaigns, and it can run for a confidential expansion.

How much does it cost?

Every drive is scoped to your hiring, so there is no set price. The scope and terms are agreed with our team once we know your roles, volume and timeline.

How do we get started?

Tell us the roles, volume, timeline and location. Start with a short chat and we will come back with a plan.

Plan your campaign

Let's fill your next hiring day.

Tell us the roles, volume and timeline, and we will come back with a plan to attract and screen the right candidates.

If a recruitment drive is not the right fit yet, our career fairs are a strong way to meet talent first.
