Authentic. Scrupulous. Reputable.

Born of a desire to deliver above industry standard quality service to our external stakeholders while maintaining a firm commitment to our individual and company values, ASR Recruitment was launched in 2018 with a mission to challenge the large, profit-driven recruitment firms that dominate the local market.

 

ASR has partnered with the S-Core group which include; established digital marketing and technology recruitment firms, S2M Digital and S2P Technology Recruitment, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Singapore and DSi Professional Services. Our aligned values across the group enable ASR to leverage from an extensive network of clients and candidates, sound business processes and exceptional strategic and corporate leadership. Our Directors are all local Novocastrians.

 

Specialising in Technology, Marketing & Communications, Accounting & Finance, Construction, Human Resources, Engineering and Office Support, ASR has made strategic hiring decisions to build a team of experienced consultants with well-established reputations in the local Newcastle market.

 

Our Consultants are experts in their field and have built extensive networks and genuine trusted relationships with candidates. Their candidate care, sound career advice and passion for delivery to their clients ensure extensive coverage of the local market and an ability to attract the right people to your business.

 

Attracting the best talent in the local Newcastle market requires a diverse sourcing strategy that traditional recruitment methods cannot produce alone. The majority of our successful placements come from our own established networks, referrals, networking, meet-ups, sourcing across social media and online channels where professionals collaborate.

 

We approach every recruitment process with our values held foremost, authenticity in the way we communicate and represent talent to you, integrity in all our dealings, and a commitment to focusing on the best outcome for our talent and our clients.

Testimonials

Our customers love us! Read their reviews below.

I can not fault the service provided by Jess at ASR recruitment. From the moment I engaged with her I felt confident in entrusting Jess with my future employment. She went above and beyond to understand my motives for jobseeking, the role I was looking for and the working environment I was hoping for. Jess ensured I was kept updated with job opportunities and when the right one came up, set up a one on one prep session to make sure I was confident going into the interview. After the interview she followed up with a call to check on me and make sure I wasn’t a bundle of nerves! She also called me the morning of my first day to wish me good luck and when my contract was renewed she came out to meet up with my to celebrate with a coffee and a chat. Jess is very professional and treats you like a friend, not just a recruit. The entire experience from start to finish was delightful and I strongly recommend ASR Recruitment.

I was recently recruited and placed by Jessica Wagstaff at ASR, and I was very impressed by her handling of the process. She was always available to respond to my questions and served as a great conduit between myself and her client. She believed that I was going to be a good fit for the company and it’s been very clear that she didn’t just consider my skillset, but also looked at the culture of the business.
