UCT's Human Resources (HR) Department hosted a presentation on 28 June to introduce the employment agencies that were recently selected as preferred providers of temporary staff for the university.
After a formal tender process, a selection panel comprising key UCT stakeholders appointed Ayanda Mbanga Communications, Corporate Placements, Kelly Group, Shamrock Recruiting and the Tower Group to service UCT from 1 July.
The agencies are mandated to assist UCT in meeting its employment equity targets and the appointment of five agencies will give the UCT community a wide choice when sourcing temps.
Yvonne Macdonald, Manager of staff recruitment and selection at HR, said: "This was a successful tender process and the agencies chosen will offer a professional recruitment service, with particular emphasis on placing suitably skilled black candidates in temporary assignments.
