Q1. How does your CV sourcing service work?
We search across six major platforms to find candidates that match your vacancy. You fill out a detailed order form, and we use your answers to shortlist relevant, qualified candidates — quickly. No job ads. No spam. Just targeted outreach that saves you time and delivers fast hiring solutions.
Q2. Is this an alternative to recruitment agencies?
Yes. Our service is a cost-effective alternative to traditional recruitment agencies. Instead of paying 15–20% of a salary, you simply order CVs matched to your role. You stay in control of the hiring process without agency fees or contracts — ideal for employers seeking flexible recruitment help in the UK.
Q3. Is this better than using job boards?
Job boards require time to write adverts, money to post them, and patience to filter through irrelevant responses. Our CV sourcing service skips all that. We proactively find and deliver candidates based on your needs — including many who aren’t actively applying on job boards.
Q4. How fast will I receive CVs?
Once your order and payment are received, we begin sourcing immediately. Most employers receive a list of matched CVs within 1 working day, complete with a control sheet and optional email outreach. It’s a fast hiring solution built for busy businesses.
Q5. What does the email service include?
If you choose our Contact the Candidate email add-on, we’ll send personalised emails on your behalf to each shortlisted candidate. These emails include your name, role, and details of the vacancy. Replies go directly to your inbox — no chasing required.
Q6. Are the candidates actively looking for work?
Yes. We run a two-phase search. Phase one targets candidates who registered in the last 3 months — the most active pool. Phase two looks at older profiles that may still be open to new opportunities. You get a mix of fresh and seasoned leads.
Q7. Is there a minimum order?
Our minimum order is 10 CVs. From there, you can order in batches of 10 up to 20 CVs, and then in batches of 5 beyond that. This structure keeps things simple and lets you scale based on your hiring needs and budget.
Q8. Can I reorder or top up later?
Definitely. Many employers begin with 10 or 20 CVs, then reorder once they’ve reviewed initial candidates. You can also ask us to re-email non-responders or expand the search if needed — all without starting over.
Q9. How is this better for UK businesses needing recruitment help?
Unlike generic job platforms or expensive agencies, our service is built for UK businesses that need targeted, flexible recruitment help without delays or long-term contracts. Whether you’re hiring for one role or several, we deliver qualified CVs fast — without fuss.
Q10. Do I need to write a job advert?
Nope. Our detailed order form collects everything we need: job title, location, required skills, working hours, benefits, and more. You focus on the job — we handle the sourcing.
