Proposing
An Introduction to Proposing
- Having achieved a general agreement to partner with an organisation as a provider of recruitment services, and having supported the organisation's disability confidence – you can propose a specific candidate
- Develop a proposal for a specific job match to take to the employer. There are a number of different steps involved in creating a successful proposal that will produce an employment outcome
- A strong proposal to an employer will:
- Demonstrate an understanding of the business and the employer's needs, as well as the organisational culture
- Provide a one page generic summary of the support the DES can offer employers and candidates
- Illustrate a good job match between the candidate and the employer's requirements
- Provide a clear and concise resume tailored to the employer's requirements, outlining the candidate's relevant experience and capacity to meet the inherent requirements and list more general employability skills
- Use the candidate's work and/or daily life experience to meet the employer's requirements and provide examples of previous successes in similar roles or industries
- Be the result of a comprehensive job analysis
- Explain potential job customisation or workplace modifications
- Outline the time commitment involved by the employer during on-boarding of the candidate
- Explain any potential risks, and address OH&S and any other concerns
- Be mutually beneficial to the employer, the candidate and the DES
