Direct Resourcing

We save you effort, time and cost by finding best talent through our competitive direct resourcing service at the fraction of the cost charged by high-street recruitment agencies at no risk. If we can't find the right candidate, we won't charge.

We get to know your business including your sector, market, vision and culture, benefits and your recruitment requirement to ensure best fit. This enables us to understand exactly the person you are looking for in terms of hard and soft skills and cultural fit.

Our search for your perfect candidate includes the following steps:

- draft the job advert to attract suitable candidates

- advertise your vacancy on a variety of job boards for a wide reach

- review CVs

- telephone interview potential candidates

- provide you with a shortlist of suitable candidates with explanatory notes (the number of candidates is mutually agreed)

- communicate interview outcome to all applicants to ensure candidates have a positive experience and

- present the offer and contract terms to the successful candidate on your behalf.
