REFERRALS

We have a target at COREcruitment that 40% of our placed candidates will come via referrals and recommendations – good people tend to know good people. We actively incentivise candidates to put us in touch with their friends / colleagues and contacts to find a higher number of ‘passive job seekers’.

ADVERTISING

While our existing database of candidates is our first port of call, we also place advertising on 23 specifically targeted, UK and international websites. We even write the adverts using the latest keyword and SEO insights available.All adverts are posted with a highlevelofconfidentially.

We actively target candidates from competitor businesses. Weuse a variety of techniques in our approach all while maintaining the strictest ofconfidentiality.

• If we find suitable candidates beyond this stage, we then ask them to come into the office for a face-to-face interview. This process may seem exhaustive; however, we believe this is necessary to get a complete feel of not only the candidate’s experience buttheirpersonalityandworkattitude.

CANDIDATE ATTRACTION

OUR NETWORK

Each consultant at COREcruitment has a niche area that they work in, and within this niche area they are part of many different network groups. Consultants use these network groups to their advantage.

Consultants make a conscious effort to attend any relevant networking events, so when we say they know the industry inside out- they really do!Working within these niche areas also means consultantsare

constantlyworkingonsimilar roles. Therefore, consultants know as soon as they receive a vacancy who is available, who would be suitableandwhomayhavea referral.

Some of our top candidates are known as ‘passive candidates’ which means they are not actively looking but we always keep an eye out for them and contact them if any suitable rolescomeup.

OPEN DAYS

One of our popular methods of attracting candidates is organising Open Days. Essentially they are an opportunity for potential members of staff to visit your business at one of your locations, interact with your team to further our understanding of your business.

WE ARE GLOBAL

We have a far-reaching global presence. With offices in 7 countries world-wide including: England, Scotland, Holland, France, South Africa, Canada and the USA and sub-bases in the Middle East, Australia and Ireland, we have access to the candidates others simplycannotreach.
