Ready To Get Started?

"I have implemented a few eRecruitment systems in the past and Chilli Factor was astoundingly simple and fast, with zero implementation cost. It is the ideal solution for a business with our size, turnover and type of workforce. We will use it for subsidiary businesses also. It is a simple, flexible, cost effective solution and the support service provided has been excellent, can’t fault it. We highly recommend Chilli Factor."
