Our Philosophy

HR Direction's vision is to raise New Zealand recruitment standards by contributing towards, utilizing and promoting 'best practice' recruitment processes.

Best practice can be defined as accumulating and applying knowledge from academic research, experience and any other relevant sources about effective, reliable and valid processes or conversely those that are not, in different situations and contexts. It is both the lessons learned and the continuing process of learning, obtaining feedback, reflection and analysis, looking critically, objectively and quantitatively at what works, how and why.

Despite the undisputed importance of recruitment it has traditionally been poorly understood and therefore difficult for recruiting managers to correctly execute and consistently get the results they desire.

HR Direction's vision is to distinguish itself as the recruitment consultancy that leads the way in recruitment best practice. We want to be the first choice of a client that truly believes in the importance of getting recruitment right and demands the highest quality recruitment service.

Recruitment has traditionally been a subjective process commonly resulting in unsatisfactory selection decisions. In a constant pursuit of best practice we have developed the HR Direction recruitment model, a continually evolving recruitment framework based on structure and objectivity. This model is then specifically tailored to meet specific organisational needs.
