Bulk & Volume Recruitment

High-volume hiring, delivered with speed, structure, and zero shortcuts.

Whether you’re ramping up for a new project, opening multiple locations, or scaling a growing workforce — bulk hiring comes with unique challenges. You need volume, but not at the cost of quality.

At Ingenious People, we specialise in Bulk & Volume Recruitment campaigns that balance speed with precision. From 5 to 500 roles, we help businesses source, assess, and onboard large groups of candidates — without compromising on fit, compliance, or candidate experience.


What Is Bulk & Volume Recruitment?

Bulk and volume recruitment is the process of hiring large numbers of staff over a short period — often within tight deadlines, across multiple locations, or for repeatable role types.

Examples include:

  • National retail campaigns

  • Contact centre or customer service buildouts

  • Trades & labour ramp-ups

  • Temporary workforce deployments

  • Large-scale graduate intakes

  • Event or seasonal staffing

This isn’t traditional recruitment at scale — it’s a completely different workflow. And that’s where we thrive.

  • Reference and background checks

  • Work rights verification

  • Contracts and offer documentation

  • Induction scheduling or onboarding packs

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the minimum number of hires to qualify as volume recruitment?
Typically, 10+ hires per intake, or a sustained need across 30+ hires over 1–2 months. But we adapt to your scale.

How long does a bulk campaign take to launch?
We can go live within 3–5 business days, depending on role complexity and market competitiveness.

Can you support multiple locations at once?
Yes — we specialise in multi-site recruitment and can geo-target sourcing, interviews, and onboarding as needed.

Do you handle onboarding or just sourcing?
We do both. You can choose to manage interviews and onboarding in-house, or let us run it end-to-end.

Is this just for temp/contract hiring?
Not at all. We support both permanent and temporary bulk hiring projects — including graduate programs.
