Miranda Allard, the founder of Spa Staff.com, has spent the best part of the last 10 years trying to resolve the dilemma of employers finding it so hard to source good quality staff while job seekers are struggling to find work. A solution which is fast, efficient and affordable is desperately needed.

Recruitment is a constant aggravation. Finding the right person who is seeking work in the right place and at the right time is far from easy. Employers incur large fees for successful placements when using agencies - a less popular option these days with limited budgets. Advertisements are not only costly but can result in a pile of CVs from unsuitable candidates consuming time and money to examine. There is always the hope that a bright job seeker may put their CV through the door at an opportune moment..

Within 2 years of launching Spa Staff.com in 2001, Miranda realised something had to change. The way forward should be for both sides to have free access to a global interactive website - directly connecting job seekers with interested employers. The only cost would be to employers - a relatively modest fee for the contact details of a chosen candidate - but only after the candidate in question had confirmed reciprocal interest in the position. Until recently many CVs were still arriving by snail mail. Now the internet enables instant access from far and wide the time has come for a twenty-first century solution - the wait is over!
