Our consultants have a reputation for outstanding integrity and professionalism. We’re committed to best practise in everything we do, from the initial brief through to placing the right candidate. We know how important is it to get to know our clients properly – taking their aims and vision into account as well as more immediate, practical concerns. We’re also known for excellent standards of candidate care, and we’ve developed a portfolio of people with superlative track records in the voluntary, statutory and commercial sectors.
A Typical Recruitment Process
- Client Briefing: In this crucial initial stage, we’ll work closely with you to define your priorities as an organisation, and build a detailed profile of the candidates you’re looking for. We’ll then prepare a recruitment schedule, job description, person specification and advertising strategy (as appropriate) for your approval.
- Search and Selection: Our approach to search is research intensive. We use research into target organisations and our extensive networks, combined with Prospectus' in-house candidate database, and where appropriate media advertising, to develop the initial longlist. All potential candidates are screened rigorously through interviews and personality profiling (as required) to ensure you’re presented with the best options.
- Client Interviews: We’ll then introduce you to the shortlist, providing detailed advice and support throughout the interview process. Once the final decision is made, we can also work with you to negotiate terms and conditions with the chosen candidate.
- Aftercare: Our team specialise in providing ongoing support to the appointee, to ensure a smooth transition and to resolve any ongoing issues as necessary.
