What defines good recruitment?

Good recruitment is all about having a client who trusts you and you being able to deliver to tight timelines. For example we recently had a piece of business outside of our usual remit, a telecoms client, they sought a business development person. This is not our core business but we are excellent at identifying sales skills. We had the team who could go through our 100,000 people database and access on-line databases to identify an appropriate candidate pool.

We worked closely with the client to establish what differentiated them in the market space and Faizaan, with his excellent communication skills, could get the employment proposition across to the target audience. Morag who has over 15 years of healthcare sales interviewing, was initially a little daunted but she soon realised that just as interviewing people to enter healthcare sales, the skills to interview telecoms sales people are the same.

What made us stand out is the timelines, a couple of days of hard candidate research, having Morag in Scotland who could be available and interview at ½ day notice and short listing to final interviews. Our telecoms client does provide services that benefit their clients over the current solutions, hopefully we’ve helped those end customers and in doing so helped our wider society.
