How it works

How does hiring a student order picker through Recruit a Student work?

  1. Request

    During an initial meeting, we discuss your situation, map out your needs and advise on a suitable, flexible deployment of students.

  2. Selection and matching

    Our recruiters thoroughly screen candidates on skills and motivation, selecting the right students from our pool of 500+ candidates.

  3. Match and rapid deployment

    Within a few days we present flexible candidates, and thanks to our pool, students can often start within the same week.

  4. Ongoing support

    Our students are well prepared, you decide on the onboarding, and we provide continuous support with planning, replacement and scaling of staff.

Hire student order pickers for your warehouse

Companies in e-commerce, warehousing and logistics are increasingly choosing student order pickers. The reason is simple: you only deploy staff when there is actual work to be done, while the employer risk and the administration stay with us. Whether you need extra hands to process a large shipment, pick orders accurately or keep your warehouse running during peak periods, Recruit a Student arranges it quickly and smoothly.

In addition, student order pickers significantly reduce your employer risk. Your logistics processes continue to run optimally, free of long contracts and high fixed payroll costs.

From one-off assignment to ongoing collaboration

Hiring student order pickers can also grow into a lasting arrangement. Many companies start with a single assignment and gradually build up a dedicated pool of trusted order pickers through Recruit a Student, order pickers who already know your warehouse and are immediately deployable, already fully onboarded. If a student order picker proves to be an exceptional fit, you can take them on permanently after an agreed period.

Pool management by Recruit a Student

For many companies, pool management is the key to continuity in the warehouse. Instead of searching for new order pickers every time, we build a dedicated pool of student workers for your organisation. These are students who already know your warehouse, understand how your processes work and are familiar with the safety rules on your work floor.

The major advantage of a dedicated pool is speed. During a peak in order flow, for example during the holiday period or in the event of unexpected absence, we know exactly who to deploy immediately. These student workers are available right away and already onboarded, saving you as an employer a significant amount of time and money.
