Candidate Sourcing
Sometimes recruiting the best talent is tricky. You might want to improve diversity, find a new team or recruit into a highly competitive role, with a not-so-highly competitive salary. But that’s what we do. No matter the hurdles, we help to find the right person for a permanent position.
We’ll start off by getting to know exactly who you’re after and unpicking any challenges. And, after carrying out some market insight and talent mapping, we’ll get in touch with suitable candidates. Then, we’ll pass the longlist over to you. Let us do the legwork, so you can focus on picking the best person.
Case Study
Wakefield Council
The challenge?
Wakefield is made up of 40 towns and villages. They had to deliver high quality services, all within tight budgets – which is why they were looking for an experienced Project Manager with an innovative vision. Our sourcing specialists got straight on the case.
Our solution?
Armed with a lot of determination and research, our specialists used social media and job boards to target passive candidates. The trick was to personalise every engagement for every candidate. Plus, we kept a close eye on where we were achieving success. With weekly data reports, we could focus our search and make quick progress.
And the results?
We attracted 14 high-calibre candidates. But we wanted to be extra helpful. So we created a shortlist, matching candidates’ skills with the job description. Gary Boardman, the council’s Business Change Manager, found this very helpful. And since being appointed, the successful candidate has hit the ground running.
