Premium Matchmaking is an additional service on top of Talent Partner for organisations that want ErasmusTalent to play an active, ongoing role in finding, approaching, interviewing and selecting suitable higher-education Talent. We apply our expertise to suitable vacancies within our target group, so we can build a sustainable recruitment approach together.
For organisations that want a long-term partnership and active recruitment support from ErasmusTalent for suitable vacancies.
ErasmusTalent Premium Matchmaking is a long-term recruitment solution for organisations looking to recruit higher-education Talent with 0–10 years of experience. We combine Talent Partner, PITA™, active search, recruitment expertise, smart technology and personal process guidance in a sustainable partnership.
Premium Matchmaking is designed for organisations that do not only want to engage ErasmusTalent when a single vacancy proves difficult to fill, but want to involve us as a long-term recruitment partner for suitable higher-education vacancies within our target group.
Premium Matchmaking is an additional service on top of Talent Partner. Through this long-term partnership, we get to know your organisation increasingly well and can search more precisely for Talent that fits both professionally and personally.
you want to strengthen recruitment not only with reach and technology, but also with dedicated recruitment capacity.
Premium Matchmaking works best when we become part of your recruitment approach for suitable vacancies within our target group.
The Premium rate is not based on one-off use where ErasmusTalent is engaged only for a single or hard-to-fill vacancy.
Recruitment becomes more effective when knowledge and experience can build over the course of the partnership.
Premium Matchmaking is not a series of separate recruitment assignments. Building on Talent Partner, we develop a long-term partnership and then actively apply that knowledge to suitable vacancies within your organisation and our target group.
Because we work together on an ongoing basis, we build knowledge about your organisation, culture, teams, vacancies and previous placements. We use that knowledge repeatedly to search, select and advise more precisely.
For every suitable vacancy, we determine together what the role truly requires and which Passion, Interests, Talents, Ambition, knowledge and experience are relevant.
We actively search our Talent Community and relevant recruitment channels for potentially suitable higher-education Talent.
Potentially suitable Talent is approached personally. We explain the vacancy and organisation and explore whether there is genuine interest.
We speak with interesting Talent in advance and discuss motivation, experience, expectations, availability and potential fit with your organisation.
Candidates we consider suitable are presented with a PITA™ Match Report that shows the fit between the Talent, vacancy and organisation.
We guide the process around introductions, interviews and feedback, and evaluate what we learn for future vacancies and matches.
Every vacancy and placement generates insights that we carry forward to the next recruitment need.
Premium Matchmaking means ErasmusTalent actively adds recruitment capacity to your organisation. We search for, approach and speak with Talent, make an initial selection and only present candidates where we see sufficient fit with both the vacancy and the organisation.
Technology helps us identify relevant Talent faster. Premium Matchmaking goes one step further. Our recruitment experience and personal contact ultimately determine which Talent we actually introduce to you.
We carry out the work that would normally take a significant amount of time from your recruitment or HR team.
We actively search for suitable higher-education Talent through our Talent Community, our own network, recruitment technology and relevant external channels.
Potentially suitable Talent is approached personally. We discuss not only the role, but also your organisation, culture and opportunities.
We check key criteria such as relevant experience, education, availability, expectations and motivation before proceeding.
We speak personally with interesting Talent. We look at experience, motivation, career aspirations and PITA™: Passion, Interests, Talents and Ambition.
Talent we consider suitable is presented with a PITA™ Match Report explaining the potential fit between the Talent, vacancy and organisation.
We follow introductions and interviews, collect feedback and help keep the process moving where needed. We use the insights for future searches.
A CV mainly shows what someone has done before. In the PITA™ Match Report, we add our analysis and the personal Talent interview to provide a broader picture of the potential fit.
Premium Matchmaking does not mean ErasmusTalent decides whom you hire. We ensure relevant Talent is found, interviewed and professionally introduced. Your organisation decides who progresses and who ultimately receives an offer.
A strong match is not created simply by comparing a vacancy with a CV. By working together on an ongoing basis, we build knowledge of your organisation, teams and recruitment needs. This enables us to search, select and advise with increasing precision.
With a traditional one-off recruitment assignment, an agency has to familiarise itself again with the organisation, vacancy and desired candidate each time.
With Premium Matchmaking, we build that knowledge
over time. As a result, we invest not only in filling today’s vacancy, but also in tomorrow’s recruitment.
The value lies not only in finding candidates, but also in everything we learn along the way.
ErasmusTalent adds active recruitment capacity. We search, approach, interview and select, so your internal team spends less time on the front end of the process.
We combine our Talent Community, network, social reach and active sourcing to identify both active and passive Talent.
With PITA™, we consider not only education and experience, but also Passion, Interests, Talents and Ambition, creating a broader picture of the potential match.
Smart technology and AI help us identify relevant Talent faster. Our recruiters add personal judgement, experience and context.
Not an anonymous recruitment machine. We speak with organisations and Talent, guide the process and remain available for advice and feedback.
Every vacancy, candidate and placement generates new insights. We use that knowledge to refine the partnership and future matching.
Premium Matchmaking is deliberately not a fully automated recruitment model. Technology supports the process; people ultimately make the difference.
With one-off recruitment, the collaboration is mainly focused on one specific vacancy.
With long-term collaboration, knowledge, recruitment experience and feedback continue to build.
We believe in transparency. That is why we show you upfront how Premium Matchmaking is structured: a fixed Talent Partner fee and a success fee when our placement results in an actual hire.
Talent Partner forms the long-term foundation of our partnership and is required to make use of Premium Matchmaking.
When Talent placed by ErasmusTalent joins your organisation, you pay one gross full-time monthly salary as a success fee.
Suppose Talent joins your organisation through Premium Matchmaking on a gross full-time monthly salary of €3,500.
* Illustrative example. The Talent Partner fee of €1,495 is paid once per year. For each successful Premium Matchmaking placement, the agreed success fee based on the gross full-time monthly salary then applies.
The fee is not simply payment for an introduction. ErasmusTalent actively invests time, reach, technology and recruitment expertise throughout the entire pre-selection process.
Because we choose continuity rather than a series of separate recruitment assignments. By working together on an ongoing basis, we can apply knowledge, processes and recruitment efforts more efficiently across multiple suitable vacancies.
Premium Matchmaking is deliberately structured differently from traditional recruitment and selection. Below we answer the key questions about the partnership, approach and costs.
Let’s first discuss your vacancies, target groups and recruitment challenges. We can then determine together whether Talent Partner, Talent Select or Premium Matchmaking is the best fit for your organisation.
