HRHelperG is an informational and employer-acquisition platform, not a recruitment agency. It helps employers understand workforce requirements and connect with suitable recruitment partners. Depending on the project, country, workforce type and availability, HRHelperG may introduce employers to recruitment partners within its business ecosystem, and recruitment services may be delivered by TNT agency s.r.o. or another suitable recruitment partner where appropriate.
