Our process

End-to-End Recruitment Process — Seamless, Fast, and Effective

Our refined, step-by-step recruitment methodology is built for speed, accuracy, and long-term satisfaction. Whether you’re hiring one person or an entire team, we manage the entire lifecycle — so you can focus on running your business.

1

Discovery & Briefing

Every successful hire starts with a detailed understanding of your business. During this phase, our recruitment consultants will:

  • Conduct a consultation to understand your company’s structure, culture, and hiring objectives.
  • Define job descriptions, required qualifications, and preferred candidate traits.
  • Identify challenges you’ve faced in previous hiring rounds.
  • Set timelines, budget expectations, and communication preferences. This ensures we’re not just filling a role — we’re solving a business need.
2

Talent Sourcing

Using a multi-channel sourcing strategy, we reach the best active and passive candidates in the UK. Our sourcing methods include:

  • Internal talent database with over 50,000 vetted professionals.
  • LinkedIn Recruiter and premium job boards.
  • Industry-specific communities and local talent pools.
  • Direct headhunting for senior and niche roles. We cast a wide yet targeted net to bring you quality options fast.
3

Screening & Shortlisting

We go beyond the CV. Every shortlisted candidate is:

  • Pre-screened via video or phone interviews.
  • Assessed for technical skills and problem-solving ability.
  • Evaluated for cultural fit, communication skills, and long-term potential.
  • Verified for right-to-work status and references where required. Only candidates that pass our rigorous process are presented to you — saving your time and improving hiring accuracy.
4

Interviews & Feedback

  • We handle all scheduling, confirmations, and coordination, ensuring a smooth experience for both client and candidate.
  • Structured feedback loops allow us to refine the candidate pool quickly.
  • We brief candidates before interviews and debrief them afterwards.
  • We mediate communication and manage expectations on both sides to prevent misunderstandings and delays.
5

Offer & Onboarding

Our team guides you and the candidate through the final stages:

  • Assistance with offer negotiation, salary alignment, and counteroffer management.
  • Clear communication to ensure offer acceptance and start date confirmation.
  • Optional onboarding support to help candidates integrate quickly and confidently. We make the transition from “offer accepted” to “productive team member” as smooth as possible.
6

Post-Hire Follow-up & Support

Our relationship doesn’t end at placement. We offer:

  • A 30- to 90-day follow-up (based on your preference) to check on performance and satisfaction.
  • Support in resolving any early-stage concerns or onboarding issues.
  • Optional replacement guarantees for added peace of mind. This ongoing support ensures not just a good hire — but a successful one.

Compliance

Right to Work Checks, Done Properly

Every employer must check that new staff have the right to work in the UK before they start. Getting it wrong can mean a civil penalty of up to £60,000 per illegal worker.

How to check

The Right Check for Each Person

The type of check depends on the person’s nationality and immigration status.

  • A manual check of original documents, such as a British or Irish passport
  • A digital identity check through a certified provider, for British and Irish citizens with a valid passport
  • A Home Office online check using a share code, for most non-UK nationals with an eVisa
  • Checks completed before the person starts work
Staying protected

Keep Records and Follow Up

A correct check gives you a legal defence against a penalty, but only if you keep the right records.

  • Keep a clear copy of the documents or online check result
  • Record the date the check was made
  • Keep records for the length of employment plus two years
  • Diary follow-up checks for staff with time-limited permission

Recruiting at scale? We can build right to work checks into your recruitment and onboarding process, and audit your existing records.
