Connexions Tyne and Wear have a team of specialised staff within the Workforce Development Team who actively help local employers recruit workers.

We can provide advice about full time employment, apprenticeships and training. We can also advise employers about employment legislation such as the minimum wage and holiday entitlement.

Employers can also advertise their vacancies on this website. Over six thousand people use the vacancy section of this website EACH MONTH making it a very cost effective way to recruit staff (by cost effective we mean FREE!).

We can offer:

• A visit to your premises to discuss
  your requirements.
  
  
• Advice about rates of pay, hours of work,
  training and qualifications.
  
  
• FREE advertising for your vacancies in all our Connexions Centres across the region and on our website which gets 20,000 visitors each month. CLICK HERE to have a look.

• Circulation of your vacancies with Job Centre Plus and other Connexions Services in the area if required.

• Promotion of your vacancies on our freephone vacancy helpline.

• Promotion of your vacancies in our Jobs Today Bulletin which is widely circulated and a popular download on this website.

• The issue and collection of either your own application forms or our standard Connexions form.

• Help with interview arrangements to suit your needs.
