Recruiting support for small businesses
Can't find the right employees?
Many small and medium-sized businesses know this problem: the position is open, the ad is online, but hardly any suitable applications come in. Or applicants get in touch who don't really fit the company, the role or the team.
Recruiting is often particularly difficult in areas such as bakeries, tax firms, medical and dental practices, retail, sales, trades, care, logistics, office work, hospitality and production.
This is exactly where I support you.
I help companies with staffing, recruiting and candidate selection – personally, pragmatically and affordably. Especially when there is no in-house HR department or simply no time in everyday business to deal intensively with open positions, applications and applicant communication.

An external HR department for your recruiting
As external recruiting support, I take on tasks that often get left behind in day-to-day operations. I review your job ad, optimise the wording, look for suitable candidate sources, manage applicant communication and support you in pre-selecting suitable candidates.
This way you don't have to handle your recruiting alone. You decide whether you only want to outsource a single task or whether I support you more comprehensively as an external HR department.

When recruiting becomes the boss's job
Do these thoughts sound familiar?
- "I can't find the right employees."
- "No one is applying to my job ad."
- "I'm not getting any suitable applications."
- "I don't have my own HR department."
- "I urgently need support with recruiting."
- "I'm looking for someone who finds, pre-screens and contacts applicants."
- "I don't have time to constantly review applications."
- "How do I find good employees for my company?"
- "Is there affordable recruiting help for small businesses?"
If these questions sound familiar, you're in the right place. I support you like an external HR department with recruiting, staffing, job ads, candidate sourcing, applicant communication and candidate selection.

No applications to your job ad?
If no one or hardly anyone applies, it's often not just down to the labour market. There are frequently several reasons:
- The job ad doesn't address the target group clearly enough.
- The job title isn't found properly on Google or job boards.
- The benefits aren't presented clearly or attractively enough.
- The application process is too complicated.
- The ad is visible on the wrong channels.
- Applicant communication takes too long.
- The position doesn't stand out enough from other offers.
Together we examine where applicants drop off and how your recruiting can be improved.

Finding employees without your own HR department
Not every company has its own HR department. Small businesses, family firms, practices, law and tax firms and trade businesses in particular often have to handle recruiting alongside their normal day-to-day work. That costs time, nerves and sometimes good applicants too.
As an external HR department, I support you exactly where you lack time, experience or capacity. You remain the decision-maker but get professional support in the background.
