Testimonials
While developing a mine in Ghana, West Africa, for Red Back Mining, I found it difficult to progress the required expatriate recruiting in Australia while based in Ghana. In addition, we needed to set-up basic Human Resource Policies and procedures.
Globe 24-7 was contracted to recruit personnel in Australia for the mine, and to advise on HR policy and procedures. The advantage with Globe 24-7 was that they custom-fit an economically charged package for the recruiting process.
A further substantial benefit in using Globe 24-7 was that they prepared our expat recruits for work in Ghana in a very caring and professional way. This approach ensured we didn't spend exorbitant amounts on recruiting, and that once screened and prepared for work in Africa, our recruits stayed for the long-term, after quickly adapting to Africa.
Later when we lost our HR Manager in Ghana, Globe 24-7 was requested to provide supplemental HR Management in Ghana to ensure we had the best HR systems possible.
Red Back Mining used Globe 24-7 in expanding roles, and I would highly recommend them to any organization that wants the best Human Resource approach at an appropriate price.
