THE PROCESS
Step by step, from first call to first day
Discovery call
30 minutesA practical conversation about your business, the role you need to fill and what success looks like. We want to understand how your team operates, the systems you use and what kind of person will genuinely fit.
Role brief
1–2 daysWe document the role requirements in detail: skills, experience, working style, software, hours and reporting structure. This brief becomes the foundation for everything that follows — getting it right here saves time later.
Talent search & screening
1–2 weeksWe search our existing talent pool and go to market if required. Every candidate is screened, interviewed and reference-checked by our team before you see their profile. You only see candidates we are confident about.
Interview & selection
3–5 daysYou are presented with a shortlist to interview directly, typically of two to four candidates. You run the interviews on your terms — we help prepare candidates and are available to debrief afterwards.
Onboarding & setup
1 weekOnce you choose your team member, we set up their workstation, IT access, HR documentation and payroll in our Nadi office. We also handle any regulatory requirements and employment agreements on your behalf.
Your team member starts
Week 4–6Your dedicated team member begins working exclusively for your business. Our on-site team provides ongoing support, and we check in regularly to make sure the placement is performing well on both sides.
WHAT MAKES IT WORK
We screen for fit, not just skills
Skills can be trained. Reliability, communication and a genuine match to your business culture are harder to teach — and far more important to get right the first time.
Every candidate we present has been screened by our team in Nadi. We reference-check, test written English, run a structured interview and assess how they communicate under pressure. If we wouldn't place them, you won't see them.
After placement, our on-site team continues to support your team member day-to-day — providing HR guidance, performance check-ins and operational backup so the relationship keeps working long term.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Things people ask before starting
Can I interview the candidates directly?
Yes. After we present a shortlist, you run the interviews on your terms. We can be present to help facilitate if useful, or step back entirely.
What if the placement doesn't work out?
We stand behind our placements. If a team member isn't working out within the early period, we will work with you to resolve it — whether that's additional support, a replacement search, or a structured transition.
How quickly can you find candidates?
For common roles (admin, customer service, bookkeeping), we typically have a shortlist within 1–2 weeks. Specialist roles may take a little longer.
Do I need to set up any local entity in Fiji?
No. Your team member is employed through Our Pacific Office. You don't need to establish any local entity, deal with Fijian employment law, or manage any in-country HR obligations.
