Recruitment Consultant

Dec 2011 – Aug 2013 · 1 yr 8 mos

Our job is to find you a job. We know that sounds simple - so how do we go about that? First of all we talk to you about your aspirations, your likes and dislikes, your experience…. which helps us build a picture of you. From there we tell you about the companies and jobs we have that would be a good match for your skills and interests, in locations that are good for you. Once you’ve made your selection we contact those clients on your behalf, and at interview stage we fully brief you about what to expect to put you in the best possible position to get the job. Beyond that we can negotiate any financials on your behalf, and help with relocation etc if applicable.
Our specialist areas are electronic hardware, technical software & IT, mechanical engineering and manufacturing. And because we are discipline focused, we really know the area we are recruiting for – so you have the confidence of talking to someone who understands not only what you’re doing but also someone who knows what’s out there, and what would be good for your career development.
