Find the Right People to Move Your Business Forward
Hiring the right professional takes more than collecting applications. Derasniaga helps Malaysian employers identify, assess and secure suitable talent through a structured recruitment and executive search process tailored to the role, industry and organisation.
From professional and specialist positions to management and senior appointments, we work closely with employers to understand what the role really requires before taking it to market.
The Right Hire Starts With Understanding the Role
A job title rarely tells the whole story.
The right candidate must have the appropriate experience and capabilities, but they also need to fit the responsibilities, working environment, expectations and direction of your organisation.
That is why Derasniaga begins every search by understanding your hiring requirement.
Clear Role, Better Shortlist
We clarify the role, priorities and ideal candidate profile before sourcing. This helps us deliver a relevant shortlist your team can assess with confidence.
Support From Brief to Placement
Whether replacing a key employee or growing a team, we provide structured recruitment support from the initial brief through to candidate placement.
More Than Candidate Sourcing
Successful recruitment requires the right combination of market search, candidate assessment and employer understanding. Derasniaga supports employers throughout the recruitment journey.
Recruitment Requirement & Role Profiling
We begin by understanding the position beyond its job description — including responsibilities, experience requirements, technical competencies, reporting structure, organisational expectations and the type of candidate most likely to succeed in the role.
Candidate Search & Market Sourcing
We search across relevant recruitment channels, professional networks and available talent pools to identify candidates whose experience is aligned with your requirement.
Shortlisting & Candidate Presentation
Your team receives a more focused selection of candidates instead of having to work through large volumes of unsuitable applications.
We coordinate candidate information and help your organisation progress suitable applicants into the interview stage.
Interview & Recruitment Coordination
Our team supports communication and interview coordination between employer and candidate, helping maintain momentum throughout the recruitment process.
Offer & Placement Support
When the preferred candidate has been identified, we assist with communication surrounding the offer, candidate acceptance and transition towards joining your organisation.
Spend More Time Choosing the Right Candidate — Not Searching for One
Recruitment can consume considerable internal time long before the first interview takes place.
Derasniaga takes on the search and initial qualification process so that your organisation can focus its attention on candidates with stronger potential for the role.
Reach Beyond Incoming Applications
Good candidates are not always actively searching job portals. A targeted recruitment approach creates opportunities to identify professionals beyond the applications an employer would normally receive.
Reduce Unnecessary Screening
We work from an agreed candidate profile and evaluate potential candidates before presenting them to your organisation, helping reduce time spent reviewing clearly unsuitable applications.
Improve Candidate Relevance
Our search begins with understanding the actual requirement of the position so that sourcing decisions are based on the needs of the role rather than job title alone.
Keep Recruitment Moving
Candidate communication, interview scheduling and follow-up can slow a hiring process. We help coordinate these stages so suitable candidates remain engaged throughout the search.
Recruitment Expertise Across Key Business Sectors
Our recruitment approach considers the requirements of the sector as well as the responsibilities of the individual position, helping employers identify candidates with experience that is more relevant to their operating environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of positions can Derasniaga recruit for?
Derasniaga supports professional, specialist, management and selected senior-level recruitment requirements across our key industry sectors. Speak with our team about the specific position and we can assess how we can support the search.
What is the difference between recruitment and executive search?
Both involve identifying and assessing suitable candidates. A more targeted executive search approach is generally appropriate for senior, specialist or harder-to-fill positions where relying only on incoming applications may not provide sufficient access to the relevant talent market.
Will employers be able to browse candidates on the Derasniaga website?
No. Our employer recruitment service is requirement-led rather than catalogue-based. We first understand the position before searching, assessing and recommending candidates appropriate to the assignment.
How does Derasniaga shortlist candidates?
Candidates are evaluated against the requirements established during the hiring brief. Depending on the role, this may include relevant experience, technical or functional background, career history, motivation and overall suitability for the position.
Can Derasniaga help if we already advertise the vacancy ourselves?
Yes. Recruitment agency support can complement your existing recruitment activities by expanding candidate sourcing, conducting preliminary screening and helping your team identify suitable professionals beyond your direct applications.
What information should we provide to begin a recruitment search?
Ideally, provide the job description, responsibilities, required experience, working location, employment level and any important technical or industry requirements. Our team can discuss the position with you to further clarify the candidate profile.
