Recruitment Research

Increasing companies are recognising that recruitment research services can offer an alternative to traditional recruitment methods. If you do not have the budget for a fully managed search but still want access to high quality HR candidates who are not currently on the job market, we offer a bespoke recruitment research service.

Our process is straightforward you brief us in full about the recruitment assignment, giving as much detail as possible with regard to the role and the company.

Stage 1 Target list and Name Gathering

• We agree with you a target list of 20-30 companies to research where we believe that we will find individuals with the appropriate skills and experience for your role.
• We complete both desk and telephone research into the approved list of target companies, identifying individuals at an appropriate level for your role. Once this long list of names is completed we provide you with a report detailing the names and job titles of potentially relevant personnel so that we can agree which candidates you wish us to approach.

Stage 2 Candidate Approaches and Screening

• We then approach potential candidates, either introducing the company openly, using “Talent Finders” or anonymously with the researchers name only, depending on the level of confidentiality you require. We outline the potential opportunity to them and if they are interested, obtain their full CV, conduct a detailed telephone interview and evaluate their experience and suitability for the role.
• We provide a one-page profile of appropriate candidates which meet your requirements together with a copy of their original CV. We can select the best candidates to shortlist or alternatively provide you with profiles and CV’s on the most promising candidates from which you can shortlist.
