Recruiters not expensive for job seekers - they're free! Did you know that it's actually illegal for recruitment agencies to charge job seekers a fee for placing them in a role. As recruitment consultants, our fees are paid by the employers who hire us to ensure we source the top talent for their roles. As a candidate who we seek out, interview and put forward to a client, you get all this service for FREE
Because it's the employer who engages us and pays our fees, our job isn't necessarily to find jobs for candidates; it's to find the right candidate for our client's job. Think of us like match making service for Jobs!.
We work closely with our clients that are looking for in a new member of staff and we source someone from our network who matches the requirements to find a fit. Unfortunately, we don't get to place every candidate we meet with we would only put you forward if we believe you have what it takes.
Sometimes people are cautious to work with recruitment agencies because they think that our fees are coming out of their salary. But the reality is that all our clients offer candidates a salary that is competitive with market value. Our fees are related to the added service we provide that is not taken from your salary. And in fact, the more you earn, the more we earn. So you can rest assured that we are negotiating extremely hard on your behalf and don't take a penny from your pocket!
This is literally impossible, once we receive your application we will always acknowledge receipt and add you to your chosen vacancy shortlist, however, we cannot return each and every candidates calls and emails (most of the time multiple, from the same candidate). We have to send a large portion of our time communicating with clients to ensure we achieve results for you.
This is not the case, we often have vacancies that are not out in the public domain by the client themselves so you can only apply if using us. Also, we have established trust, relationships and a proven track record with our clients and they are well aware of/educated of how we operate before requesting to meet you. If you are good enough, our clients will meet you.
Believe it or not, making a placement isn't everything in our business. We genuinely care about finding people the right fit; so we'll never push you into taking a job that you're not sure about or hide information from you. We won't coerce you away from a promising job prospect that you found on your own, and in fact we're happy to share any knowledge we have about prospective employers. We enjoy what we do and are in this for the long haul we love the real consultative aspect of recruiting and building long-lasting relationships with employers and job seekers alike. For us, it's not about the quick win, we want to build that trust so we can work together throughout your whole career
