87% of UK workers would consider a new role, right now

According to the latest data from LinkedIn’s Workforce Confidence Index, one third of the UK workforce is actively looking for a new job whilst a further 26% of workers are casually looking for a new job and 30% – while not actively looking – are open to the right offer. This means that only 13% of workers are not looking and not interested in any new opportunities right now.

It’s our 3rd Birthday….

Wow, we are so incredibly grateful to celebrate 3 years in business. We want to just say a huge thank you to our amazing clients, sensational candidates and our incredible network for being a part of the journey so far. We thought there's no better day to share with you our journey so far, the lessons we have learned and what we have in store for the future.

3 years ago, we had a vision…. A vision to create a recruitment business with a difference. We saw a gap in the market and knew that things could be done differently. Offering exceptional service and innovative solutions to clients would enable us to disrupt the norm and set the benchmark for the industry. We have built a business based around relationships, transformation, adding value and solving problems with a culture derived by our core values and those of the clients we represent.

Welcome to Ian Piercy, Operations Director

As part of our continued growth we are delighted to have Ian Piercy, husband of Managing Director Marie Piercy join the business as Operations Director following 20 years’ experience gained within both the industrial and technical sectors working in both high street branches and on site. The latest addition to the business will allow us to expand our offering into new divisions.

Why our clients work with us exclusively…

If you are a solicitor would you write a will for a client knowing they have 5 other solicitors doing the same, they will then pick the one they like and only if it was yours would you then get paid?

If you are an accountant would you do someone’s accounts and then you only get paid if they decide they are happy with your work?

If you are a marketing agency would you make me a website for me then to tell you I have decided to engage with another agency?

How to conduct video interviews and enhance the candidate experience

Many employers have sent their entire workforce home to work remotely in the response to the Covid-19 pandemic with talent acquisition teams now reassessing how they conduct candidate interviews and shift to a remote recruitment strategy which is an adjustment businesses need to make in order to move forward. As such it’s important you give it thought and get it right first time as an unpolished process can come across as unprofessional and damage your employer brand.

We have used video software to recruit for our clients for the last 3 years and have put together our hints and tips on how to effectively conduct interviews in order to ensure the best candidate experience possible.
