Local engagement boosts recruitment! 🏡✨ Getting involved with your local community isn't just about giving back—it's an excellent way to attract local talent. 🐕👩⚕️ With the right approach, businesses can build strong relationships that naturally lead to a pipeline of dedicated and passionate employees. At Vetted Recruitment, we've seen first-hand how community engagement can elevate recruitment efforts.

From CV workshops to collaboration with local vet schools, our involvement helps potential candidates see us as a trusted partner in their career journeys. When candidates know you care about their community, they are more likely to care about you.
