Garda Vetting Notice
Where Garda vetting is required for a role within your organisation, please note that while we represent candidates who may already hold Garda clearance in sectors such as education, healthcare, or similar, employment legislation requires that Garda vetting be completed specifically for your organisation before a candidate can commence an assignment.
Hall Recruitment can manage the Garda vetting process on your behalf at a discounted rate, which will be included in your invoice.
While we will always take steps to progress vetting as efficiently as possible, Garda vetting timelines are outside our direct control. Where vetting is a requirement, we strongly recommend allowing a minimum of one month’s notice to ensure suitable cover can be arranged without disruption.

What industries do you recruit receptionists for?
We recruit receptionists across a wide range of sectors including legal services, healthcare, property management, facilities management, professional services, education, corporate offices and public sector organisations.
What skills should I look for when hiring a receptionist?

Depending on the role, industry-specific experience may also be beneficial.
Can you provide receptionists with experience using specific software systems?
Yes. We regularly recruit receptionists with experience using systems such as Microsoft Office, Outlook, CRM platforms, switchboard systems, visitor management software, legal practice management systems and healthcare administration software.

Yes. We work with organisations operating across multiple sites and can source receptionists for individual locations or coordinate recruitment across several offices.
