FAQs

Hi there! Here are some questions about Fermion:

  • How does Fermion differ from a recruitment agency?

    We don’t just focus on filling job vacancies. At Fermion, we offer HR consulting services in Canberra that go beyond short-term fixes. Our process combines psychometric assessments with a full-spectrum hiring-to-retention model — helping you find people who align with your values, contribute to culture, and add long-term value.


    Our work spans across human resources, performance, and behaviour. We help businesses strengthen workplace relations, improve decision-making, and reduce the risks tied to mis-hires.


    Unlike most Canberra agencies that prioritise speed, we focus on building teams that last — through smart HR practices and science-backed HR consulting that supports real growth.

  • Can Fermion help reduce my recruitment costs?

    Yes. Bad hires are expensive — not just in dollars, but in time, morale, and missed opportunities. Through our HR consulting services, we improve recruitment accuracy and help implement effective HR policies that reduce hiring errors and staff turnover.


    Fewer missteps mean fewer setbacks — and less money spent fixing avoidable problems. It’s a smarter way to hire that directly supports long-term organisational performance, making it far more cost-effective than relying on standard agency models.

  • What makes Fermion's approach more effective than using a labour hire service?

    Labour hire services focus on fast placements. That’s fine if you need short-term hands. But if you’re aiming for lasting impact, you need more than speed.


    Our work combines behavioural science with real-world data — helping you build a human resources function that attracts the right people and keeps them involved. We also strengthen workplace relations, so your team stays engaged, aligned, and productive over time.


    This isn’t a quick fix. It’s a long-term investment in your workforce — with recruitment that supports business strategy, not just fills gaps.

  • In which locations does Fermion operate?

    We're proudly based in Wollongong, but location has never been a barrier. Our HR consulting services are fully accessible online — allowing us to work with businesses across Australia. From the Illawarra to Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth — distance doesn't dilute the value we bring.


    We also support regional businesses throughout the Southern Highlands, Blue Mountains, Hunter Valley, and Mornington Peninsula. Whether you’re refining HR policies, building out your human resources strategy, or improving how you hire, our systems are set up to work with you — virtually, efficiently, and without disruption.


    We meet you where you are — and help you hire smarter, no matter the postcode.
