How We Work
A Recruitment Process Built Around Your Business
No cookie-cutter approach. We take the time to understand your business before we start searching.
01
Discovery & Brief
We start with a deep-dive into your business, culture, and the role. We challenge the brief where needed so we're searching for the right person, not just the right CV.
02
Market Mapping
We identify active and passive candidates across our network and the broader market. We don't just post and pray — we headhunt.
03
Screening & Assessment
Every candidate is interviewed and assessed before they reach you. You only see people we'd genuinely recommend.
04
Shortlist & Presentation
We present a concise shortlist with detailed candidate profiles, our assessment, and honest commentary on each person.
05
Interview & Offer Management
We coordinate interviews, manage feedback, and guide the offer process — including navigating counteroffers and competing opportunities.
06
Placement & Follow-Up
We stay in contact after placement to ensure the hire is working for both sides. Our relationship doesn't end at the offer letter.
