Kwun Tong Recruitment Agencies: A Dated Directory Check

Use the Kwun Tong district page as a dated shortlist, not as a ranking or a government register. On 22 July 2026, that page displayed three executive search adviser listings. This guide preserves their public names and links from that snapshot. It does not carry forward the old article’s ratings, review totals, service descriptions, prices, salary figures or market claims.

The directory can change after the access date. Open the live page when you use this guide, then check any proposed agency against its current documents and the Labour Department search. The Hong Kong employment-agency licence guide gives a longer identity-check sequence.

Read the 22 July directory boundary

The district page showed these three listings on 22 July 2026:

The names appear here in alphabetical order. Their order does not express preference or quality.

This snapshot answers one narrow question: which listings appeared on the Kwun Tong executive search adviser page at that time? It does not count every employment agency with a Kwun Tong address, every recruiter that serves the district, or every business in the official employment-agency search. It also does not establish the legal identity, current office, licence record, service scope, sector focus, availability or outcome of any listed business.

Turn the directory rows into a neutral shortlist

Choose a listing only as a lead for further checking. Copy its displayed name and profile URL into a note. Add the name on the proposal, the contracting party, and the office address supplied for the engagement. Do not fill a blank from a review, an old article or another company with a similar name.

Use one card for each lead:

Field	What to record
Directory lead	Displayed name, profile URL and check date
Proposal identity	Business name and address on the current proposal
Contracting party	Legal name that will sign and invoice
Official result	Name, address and result date returned by the Labour Department search
Difference	Exact mismatch and the agency’s written explanation
Decision	Continue, hold for clarification, or remove from the shortlist

The directory does not provide a recommendation. Compare each lead with the same fields and leave unresolved items visible.

Match the legal identity and current record

The Employment Agencies Portal says an employment agency needs a licence or Certificate of Exemption before undertaking job-placement business and tells users to check the current record before using an agency. This article does not certify the licence status of any directory listing.

Start with the legal name and address on the proposal or service agreement. Enter those details in the official agency search. The form accepts English and Chinese names and addresses, as well as contact, placement-type, region, district and location fields. Save the search terms, returned result and check date.

The Labour Department says the list helps the public check whether an agency has a valid licence and locate licensed agencies in its Statement of Purpose. Use that result for the stated record check. It does not supply missing service terms, establish quality or prove that two similar names are the same entity.

Ask the agency to explain a name or address mismatch in writing. Keep the question open until the proposal, agreement and official result identify the same contracting party or provide a clear documented relationship.

Collect written service terms

The Labour Department advises employers to clarify service coverage and itemized fees before payment, then record the agreed terms in a service agreement signed by both parties (Employment Agencies Portal). Ask every shortlisted agency for the same information.

Term	Written answer to request
Engagement	Role, employment type, work location and intended start period
Agency work	Sourcing, screening, interview coordination, checks and reporting
Contract identity	Legal entity, signatory, address and payment recipient
Charges	Each item, payer, payment trigger and work included
Remedy	Any stated replacement or refund condition, window and exclusion
Communication	Named contact, reporting method and response route
Unresolved point	Question, owner and date for the next answer

Record only what the current proposal says. Do not borrow a price, remedy term, sector description or outcome claim from another agency or an older source.

Check CV handling before you send it

The Privacy Commissioner addresses recruitment through agencies in the Code of Practice on Human Resource Management. The code says an employer that engages an agency to solicit applicant data also collects that data. It identifies collection purpose, transferee classes, whether supplying the data is optional or obligatory, and access and correction rights as notice topics.

Ask for the privacy notice that covers your submission. Get written answers to these questions before uploading a CV:

Question	Answer to request
Who collects the data?	Agency identity and employer identity, if both collect it
Why is it needed?	Named vacancy, assessment or stated later-use purpose
Who may receive it?	Employer or stated classes of recipients
Which requested information is optional or required?	A clear answer for each requested item under the PCPD code
How long is it kept?	Retention period and deletion route
How can I inspect or correct it?	Request method and responsible contact
Who can access it?	Authorized roles and stated safeguards

The same PCPD code applies retention-purpose and secure-access requirements to employment agencies holding data supplied by job seekers. A directory listing or official agency result cannot answer those privacy questions for a specific submission.

Keep one dated comparison record

Save the district page, profile links and access date with your shortlist. Attach the exact official search inputs and result, current proposal, service agreement, privacy notice and unresolved questions for each agency.

Recheck time-sensitive fields before signing or sending personal documents. If the district page adds or removes a listing, keep the earlier snapshot and record the new date. Do not rewrite the old observation as if the page had always shown the new state.

Your final note should separate three decisions:

Does the proposal identify the same entity as the official result?
Do the written service terms fit the vacancy or job search?
Are the CV collection and transfer terms clear enough for you to proceed?

Common questions

How many listings did the Kwun Tong directory show?

The Kwun Tong district page showed three executive search adviser listings on 22 July 2026. That is a dated count of this directory page, not a count of every employment agency in Kwun Tong.

Does a directory listing prove that an agency is licensed?

No. Use the Labour Department search with the legal name and address from the proposal. Save the result and date, then resolve any mismatch before using the agency.

Which listed agency is the best?

This guide does not rank the three businesses. Compare their current legal identity, written service terms and CV handling with the same checklist, then decide which proposal fits your task.

Should I use ratings or review totals to choose?

Ratings and review totals are excluded from this guide. They can change and do not replace a current identity check, written terms or answers about how the agency will handle candidate data.

What should I ask before sending a CV?

Ask who collects it, why it is needed, who may receive it, which requested information is optional or required, how long it will be kept, and how you can inspect or correct the data. The PCPD code covers these recruitment-data questions.

What if the live district page changes?

Record the new names and access date without replacing the earlier observation. Recheck the official agency result and current proposal for any business that remains on your shortlist.
