The recruitment process behind Covela
Covela is a sister company spun out of Adaca in 2026. Our recruitment process draws on eleven years of refinement at Adaca, assessing people for highly technical roles.
We apply that discipline to your brief: define the work, assess relevant experience and communication, and combine AI assistance with human review. Your team meets candidates and makes the hiring decision.
Explore our recruitment process ↗Working together
Your site and technical teams retain safety decisions, operational control and engineering sign-off. An administrative or reporting role does not provide on-site supervision.
Include your procurement platform, project document system and reporting tools. Distinguish business-system access from operational technology and identify site escalation contacts.
Covela’s staffing service is covered by ISO 27001 certification. Agree the information each role needs, the access you authorise and the review and escalation requirements before onboarding.
Discuss your information requirements ↗You set priorities, manage daily work and approve access and outputs.
We handle recruitment, employment, payroll and HR. Leave, overtime requests and performance reviews come through our platform for your approval.
Our platform keeps the brief, candidate coordination and ongoing people administration together, with human support across Australia and the Philippines.
Set responsibilities, systems, experience and the manager who will guide the person.
We assess your brief and provide candidate profiles within 48 hours. Interviews and candidate refinement shape the hiring decision.
Agree a start date around notice periods, prepare access and introduce the person to your team’s review process.
Scope the role before recruitment, so everyone knows what the person will own and when to ask for guidance.
Define each site’s reporting format, cut-off times and escalation owner. A central coordinator can consolidate information where access and workloads permit.
Do not assume it does. Separate office-system support from operational technology and define access, competence and approval requirements for any proposed technical scope.
Your business sets priorities, gives instructions and reviews the work. Covela recruits and employs your people, handles payroll and HR, and coordinates ongoing people support.
We assess your brief and provide candidate profiles within 48 hours. Hiring generally takes around two weeks, assuming two to three interview rounds and candidate refinement. The person may then start immediately or up to four weeks later, depending on their notice period.
Tell us what needs doing, which systems you use and who will direct the work. We’ll help you shape the role.
