As a South African recruitment agency, Be Different connects exceptional talent with organisations where they can thrive. Inspired by nature’s greatest team, we believe the right person can transform a business. Throughout history, the bee has symbolised, focus, dedication, hard work, teamwork, generosity, prosperity, and fertility. Be Different as a business wants to encapsulate these qualities and be more like the bee - better, effective and engaged with our clients and candidates. Research has shown that bees can learn from their environment to gain a reward, and then teach other bees to do the same. The way they support fellow bees is commendable and therefore demonstrating, one of the most incredible examples of teamwork. Be Different wants to work in collaboration with our clients as a team. Being a team, we can be more effective in our approach to successful recruitment. Bees are tiny, yet the most diligent creatures on this planet. Interesting fact, bee’s contribution in pollination accounts for 70% of the food we eat! Without honeybees, we’ll literally cease to exist. Let Be Different, be your honey bee.

Why Use Be Different

Why Use Our South African Recruitment Agency

We aim to set ourselves apart in the industry by being different, providing exceptional service and consulting on recruitment, positions, salaries and job specifications.

Thorough Approach

We believe in open, clear transfer of information and feedback to our candidates so they are aware of the role, the package, the company and well suited for the position so they know what to expect and what our clients have to offer. We believe candidates should always be kept up to date on the progress of their application. We focus on honest and open communication with our clients. We would rather walk away from a placement because we pick up something with the candidate.

Professional and Diligent

Being professional and diligent at all times is important. We feel the responsibility of representing our clients and aware that we are performing a public relation function for the companies we recruit for. We strive to represent our clients in a positive and professional way. Ensuring that candidates always have a pleasant experience even if they don’t get the job they so badly want.

Long Term Relationships

As demonstrated from our current client base we aim to build long term relationships with our clients, being accountable as we don’t want to make a quick placement and move on. As a result, we get to know our clients so that when a role becomes available in the future, we already know the type of person who is going to fit into their environment, thus saving clients time.

Passionate and Kind

Be Different is renowned for teamwork and working in unison. Each person performs an important role that benefits the whole company. Having faith in your colleagues is the foundation of any successful team. We are passionate about recruitment. Never forgetting the importance of showing kindness to those, we work with.
