SA’s Top Recruiters announced for 2019

South Africa’s top recruitment agencies and recruiter of the year has been announced.

The results were announced at The Johannesburg Golf Club Woodmead on 14 November 2019. The much-anticipated HR event, hosted by CareerJunction, brought top recruiters together to celebrate recruitment excellence in South Africa.

Accolades were awarded to those recruitment agencies that stood out for the level of service they provided to CareerJunction job seekers. What makes this event so unique is that award winners are determined by job seekers themselves whom get to cast their votes throughout the course of the voting period.

This is the 16th year that CareerJunction hosted the awards to celebrate practices in the industry and continue to set high standards with the assistance of recruitment agencies.

This year over 3,700 votes were cast and 9 agencies walked away with special accolades:
