FAQALL➜
Can the system automatically generate documents such as CV’s?
Yes. Templates are used to automatically generate documents from the data stored in Placement Partner. A typical example of this is to automatically generate standardised CV’s which can be sent directly to your clients.
Can we store files in the Placement Partner database?
Yes. Placement Partner was designed to store candidate CV files and many other files with each candidate’s and client’s record.
Can anyone on the internet access our database?
No. Placement Partner is password-protected and is hosted on an encrypted secure connection which makes unauthorised access virtually impossible. An unfortunate reality today is that a server, located in your office building, is far more likely to be stolen than someone gaining unauthorised access to your data via a secure connection.Our servers, with your data on, are located in a high-security data center and we keep the location of our servers strictly confidential.
How does the pricing structure work?
Placement Partner is charged on a monthly subscription basis, based on the number of users.

Looking to make more placements in Software Development?
We are proud to bring you yet another special offer, exclusive to Placement Partner in partnership with CoGrammar.

We’re extending a special offer from this innovative, international Edtech start up that would assist you in sourcing and technically assessing developers:
Technical Assessments – FREE TRIAL

CoGrammar also offers Technical Review and Live Interviews to assist in the screening and assessment of candidates in the Software Development sphere.
Developer Sourcing – 20% off

With the CoGrammar group teaching developers how to code through their HyperionDev Coding Bootcamps, and offering specialized assessments for screening developers, it’s hardly a surprise to hear that they have access to a healthy, and relatively untapped network of skilled candidates.
HyperionDev Connect

A standard once-off placement fee of R25 000 is incurred, however, rates may be negotiated depending on the vacancy in question.
Placement Partner clients get 20% off!
