Working Interview

We understand that when you need a temporary solution that this is more often than not time pressured. That along with the fact we are currently in one of the most candidate driven markets ever means that our eight-hour working interview should be the perfect solution. Our consultants are specialists in their markets and over 50% of our temporary roles are filled with candidates we have worked with before. They are ‘tried and tested’ with references in place to add to your peace of mind.

To demonstrate our confidence off the back of our track record*, we are pleased to offer 8-hour working interviews for all temporary assignments. The 8-hour working interview involves us putting trusted candidates forward to spend eight hours 'working the job'. This allows you to assess their suitability to work for you. We are so confident that if you were not happy with their performance we would pay the candidate for the 8 hours with no charge if you decided not to proceed with them.  

*On 94% of occasions, our clients are happy to continue with the professionals after the 8 hours.

Hiring Process

  • 01

    Job requirement

    First of all, a conversation to establish your business needs on a technical and cultural basis. After which, one of our consultants will start speaking to relevant professionals in our network and advertise the role across our website, LinkedIn and other outlets.

  • 02

    Candidate briefing

    The consultant will either video call or invite an initial selection of professionals into the office for an informal meeting. Off the back of these meetings, we will produce a list matching your requirements for you to look over to drive the next stage - interviews.

  • 03

    Client Meeting

    We will arrange a meeting with you to run through the list of professionals we have cherry picked. A short list of candidates you'd like to interview will be agreed upon and we will go away and schedule on your behalf.

  • 04

    The interviews

    After each interview, we will ask for feedback from both yourselves and the candidate. We will discuss the feedback with you and this will lead the conversation into offers.

  • 05

    We will inform the successful candidate of the offer. If accepted, we will guide the candidate through the resignation process and keep in touch until their start date.
