Notice to staffing agencies, placement services, and professional recruiters
At Univest, we believe great hiring starts with strong relationships, clear communication, and a thoughtful candidate experience. Our internal recruiting team leads this process and, when appropriate, may partner with temporary staffing agencies, placement services, or professional recruiters (“Recruiters”) who have an approved written agreement in place.
To help us provide a consistent and respectful experience for candidates and hiring teams, Recruiters should not contact Univest employees directly to present candidates. All candidate submissions must be coordinated through Univest’s internal recruiting team and require advance written approval from Univest’s Recruiting Manager or HR Director.
Univest does not accept unsolicited resumés or candidate submissions from third-party recruiters. Any unsolicited resumé or candidate information sent to Univest, including to a Univest mailing address, fax machine, email address, employee, hiring manager, or resumé database, will be considered Univest property. Univest will not pay a placement fee for any candidate submitted without prior written approval and a valid, fully executed Univest vendor agreement in place before the submission is made.
Recruiters may submit candidates only when the submission is tied to a specific open position, advance written approval has been provided by Univest’s Recruiting Manager or HR Director, and a signed Univest vendor agreement is already in effect. Candidates submitted outside of this process will be considered referred at no cost to Univest.
Recruiting vendor agreements are valid only when they are in writing and signed by a Senior Executive or Univest’s HR Director. No other Univest employee is authorized to enter into or approve an agreement regarding candidate placement on behalf of Univest.
We appreciate your partnership in following this process and helping us maintain a positive, fair, and relationship-focused recruiting experience.
