STUDENTS - Key Persons
Managing Member Alexander Fischer established Dial a Student over 30 years ago in 1988. A visionary ahead of his time, it was already clear to him then that no matter how talented young people were, they needed work experience to make them more employable. He set about finding ways to advocate for youth employment and Dial a Student was born. Over 30 years later, his passion to improve the lives of ambitious, hard working, highly skilled young South African graduates and students by helping them find employment hasn't changed.
He understands that the only way to encourage corporate clients to invest in youth employment is to ensure that candidates are well trained to function in a professional environment, dedicated to working hard and reliable - for corporate clients to invest in the youth, Alexander realised he had to turn them into assets. To achieve this, all Dial a Student candidates have to make it through a rigorous induction process, designed to weed out the lazy and train the brightest to become the sought-after assets our clients have come to expect when hiring temporary student staff from us. That's why we've placed over 230 000 student staff with over 25 000 clients and continue to grow from strength to strength. "We offer our clients only the cream of the crop and they've come to expect nothing less from us." Explained Alexander when asked about the success of Dial a Student over 3 decades.
Getting young people employed in South Africa remains a top priority and Dial a Student continues to dominate the student recruitment environment thanks to the passion and drive of Alexander and his dedicated team of recruitment specialists. If you're thinking of hiring a student for any task, as with many successful corporations that rely on us, Dial a Student should be top of your mind.
