Please note that as well as working to recruit staff members via GAC channels, GAC does use third-party recruiters to recruit for specific positions within the Group. Please do however, be aware of unaffiliated recruiters purporting to represent GAC that ask for payment in return for facilitating interviews. A genuine third-party recruiter working with GAC will never ask for payment to facilitate an interview.
