RECRUITER-ASSISTED SEARCH
Finding candidates is one thing. Knowing who is worth interviewing is another.
You've got an important vacancy to fill, and finding the right person matters.
Perhaps you've already advertised the position but haven't found anyone with the experience you're looking for.
Or maybe you've received plenty of applications, but you simply don't have the time to work through them, speak to candidates and establish who might be suitable.
Recruitment takes more than finding CVs.
It takes experience to recognise potential, ask the right questions and understand whether someone's background genuinely matches what your business needs.
That's where having an experienced recruiter working alongside you can make a difference.
Our Recruiter-Assisted Search service combines candidate searching, targeted advertising and proactive outreach with greater personal involvement from a professional recruiter.
We'll help identify suitable people, speak with promising candidates and provide additional insight to help you decide who you'd like to interview.
You remain in control of every hiring decision, while we take care of more of the recruitment work.
£1,295 fixed price. No placement fees.

More than finding candidates.
Helping you decide who to interview.
For £1,295, Recruiter-Assisted Search includes everything in our Passive Search service, with additional personal involvement from an experienced recruiter.

Where suitable candidates express an interest in your vacancy, an experienced recruitment professional will arrange screening conversations to understand their experience, career background and interest in the opportunity.
This applies to suitable candidates identified through our searches and those responding to your advertisement.
Assess experience, motivation and suitability
We'll explore candidates' relevant experience, reasons for considering a move, salary expectations and availability.
Our aim is to help you understand more about each candidate than you would from their CV alone.
Ask your own pre-interview questions
You can provide up to three questions you'd particularly like us to ask during screening conversations.
These might relate to specialist experience, qualifications, working arrangements or other requirements important to your business.

We'll provide written summaries of candidates' answers to your questions, alongside relevant information gathered during their screening conversations.
This gives you a clearer picture of each candidate before deciding whether to arrange an interview.

You'll receive their observations and recommendations, helping you decide who deserves further consideration.

You receive more information about interested candidates, supported by an experienced recruiter's judgement.
You make the hiring decisions. We help you make them with greater confidence.
WHY CHOOSE RECRUITER-ASSISTED SEARCH?
A CV can tell you what someone's done. A conversation can tell you much more.
Finding someone with the right experience is important. But a CV doesn't always tell the whole story.
It won't necessarily explain why someone is considering a move, what they're looking for in their next position or whether their expectations match what your business can offer.
And discovering those things takes time.
That's where having an experienced recruiter involved makes a difference.
We'll speak personally with suitable, interested candidates, ask relevant questions and explore their experience beyond what's written on their CV.
Drawing on years of recruitment experience, our experienced recruitment professionals will provide their professional assessment, helping you understand each candidate's strengths and whether they're worth meeting.
You spend less time screening candidates and more time interviewing people who have already expressed an interest in your opportunity.
GETTING STARTED
It starts with a conversation.
Before we begin searching, we'd like to understand more about your business, the vacancy you're trying to fill and the experience you're looking for.
We'll discuss the difficulties you've encountered finding suitable candidates and what you'd particularly like to establish before inviting someone for an interview.
We'll also talk through the screening process, including any specific questions you'd like us to ask candidates on your behalf.
You can provide up to three pre-interview questions, helping us focus our conversations on the things that matter most to your business.
It's also an opportunity for you to ask questions and for us to explain exactly how our Recruiter-Assisted Search service works.
We'll be straightforward about what we believe we can achieve and whether this level of recruitment support is appropriate for your vacancy.
If we're confident we can help, we'll agree the next steps, confirm the fixed price and arrange payment before work begins.
No pressure. No obligation. Just a straightforward conversation about your recruitment needs.
Discuss Your VacancyFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
A few things you might want to know.
Will you personally speak with every candidate?
We'll arrange personal screening conversations with suitable candidates who have expressed an interest in your vacancy and are willing to speak with us.
This includes suitable applicants responding to your advertisement and individuals identified through our candidate searches and passive outreach.
Our experienced recruitment professionals will assess their experience, motivation and suitability before recommending candidates for your consideration.
We won't telephone-screen people who clearly don't meet your requirements simply to increase the number of conversations.
What happens if no suitable candidates express an interest?
We'll make every reasonable effort to identify, attract and approach suitable candidates throughout your recruitment campaign.
However, recruitment isn't an exact science, and we can't guarantee that every search will produce suitable or interested candidates.
Our commitment is to carry out the agreed searches, advertising and outreach professionally, keeping you informed about the results.
We won't recommend unsuitable candidates simply to make up numbers.
What questions can I ask candidates through your screening service?
You can provide up to three pre-interview questions that you'd particularly like us to ask suitable, interested candidates.
These might relate to specific experience, technical knowledge, qualifications, working arrangements or other requirements important to your business.
We'll incorporate your questions into our screening conversations and provide written summaries of candidates' answers.
We'll also discuss their relevant experience, motivation, salary expectations and availability.
What information will I receive after a candidate has been screened?
For each suitable candidate we recommend, you'll receive a written summary of their screening conversation.
This will include relevant information about their experience, motivation, salary expectations and availability, together with their answers to your pre-interview questions.
You'll also receive a professional recruitment assessment to help you decide whether you'd like to invite them for an interview.
We'll only introduce candidates who have expressed an interest in your opportunity and agreed to their details being shared.
How long does the recruitment campaign run?
Your active recruitment campaign runs for 30 days.
Your campaign will begin within two working days of receiving payment and your complete vacancy brief.
During the campaign, we'll carry out the agreed searches, advertising, outreach and candidate screening, with progress updates on Days 7, 14 and 30.
You'll also have 60 days' access to your private online shortlist from the campaign start date, giving you an additional 30 days after the campaign ends to review candidates and make recruitment decisions.
Are there any additional fees if I employ someone?
No. Recruiter-Assisted Search costs £1,295, payable before work begins.
The price includes everything in Passive Search, plus personal screening conversations with suitable, interested candidates, written summaries, professional recruitment assessments and introductions.
It also includes the £50 Google Ads budget, research of up to 50 professional profiles and 60 days' private online shortlist access.
There are no additional placement fees if you employ someone introduced through our service.
