Get Job-Matched CVs — Post a Job

Find the Candidates Who Haven’t Applied

The person you would really like to employ may not have applied at all.

Advertising a vacancy is only part of the search. JobMatchedCVs helps you deal with the candidates who apply and actively looks for suitable people who haven’t.

We combine vacancy advertising with targeted candidate sourcing and, where required, passive candidate searches — giving you a wider view of the people who could potentially fill your role.

  • 30-day online vacancy advertising
  • Targeted searches based on the skills and experience you actually need
  • Passive candidate search available
  • No percentage-of-salary placement fee
Fixed-cost candidate sourcing • UK-wide searches • Passive candidates available • No placement fees

There Are Two Sides to Every Candidate Search

Sometimes the problem is too few applicants. Sometimes it’s too many. Either way, finding the right person takes more than simply putting an advert online.

✔

Not Enough Applicants

Your vacancy may attract very few suitable people — particularly when the skills you need are in demand.

✔

Too Many CVs

100+ applications can create a different problem. Someone still has to identify which candidates are genuinely worth speaking to.

✔

The Best Person May Not Apply

Good candidates are often already working. They may be open to the right opportunity without actively searching job boards.

✔

Search Beyond Job Titles

We search around the skills, experience and background you actually need rather than relying solely on an exact job title.

✔

Approach Passive Candidates

With our Passive Search service, suitable people can be approached by email and/or LinkedIn to establish whether they’re interested in hearing more.

✔

You Stay in Control

We find and organise potential candidates. You decide who you want to speak to, interview and ultimately employ.

We can help you with the candidates you’ve already got — and go looking for the candidates you haven’t.

Choose the Level of Search You Need

Every vacancy is different. Choose straightforward candidate sourcing, add a proactive search for passive candidates, or let us help work through the applications you already have as well.

A very different cost from traditional recruitment. At a 15% agency fee, employing somebody on a £30,000 salary could cost £4,500 in recruitment commission. With JobMatchedCVs, there is no percentage-of-salary fee if you employ somebody we find.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about how JobMatchedCVs works, what’s included and how the service differs from traditional recruitment.

How does the process work?
You submit your vacancy brief and choose the level of support you need. We then build the search around the role, advertise the vacancy where appropriate and begin targeted candidate sourcing. If you choose Passive Search or Recruiter-Assisted Search, we can also identify and approach suitable people who may not be actively applying for jobs.
How is this different from simply posting on a job board?
A job advert only reaches people who see it and choose to apply. JobMatchedCVs combines vacancy advertising with active candidate sourcing, helping you look beyond inbound applications and identify additional people who may fit the role.
What is a passive candidate?
A passive candidate is someone who may be suitable for your role but is not actively applying for jobs. They may already be employed and open to hearing about the right opportunity. With our Passive Search and Recruiter-Assisted Search services, we can identify suitable people and make an initial approach by email and/or LinkedIn.
Do you charge a fee if I employ somebody you find?
No. There is no percentage-of-salary placement fee or recruitment commission if you employ somebody identified through JobMatchedCVs. You pay the fixed fee for the search service you choose.
Can you work through the CVs I have already received?
Yes. Our Recruiter-Assisted Search includes review and shortlisting of up to 100 existing CV applications against the agreed criteria for the role. Larger application volumes can be quoted separately.
Can I specify particular skills, licences or experience?
Yes. The search is built around the requirements that matter to the vacancy, including skills, qualifications, licences, experience, location, salary expectations, working pattern and other agreed criteria.
What do I receive from the search?
Suitable candidates identified through the search are presented clearly so you can review them and decide who you want to contact or interview. Depending on the service selected, this can also include a structured candidate management spreadsheet and information gathered during the sourcing process.
What happens if you do not find the right person?
Candidate availability varies by role, location, salary and market conditions, so we cannot guarantee that every search will result in a hire. What you are paying for is the agreed sourcing work, advertising and recruiter-led search activity carried out on your vacancy.
When does work begin?
Once your vacancy brief has been reviewed and the appropriate search option agreed, an invoice is issued. Work begins once payment has been received.
Can I upload an existing job description?
Yes. You can submit an existing job description, vacancy advert or hiring brief as part of the job brief process. We can use that alongside any additional information you provide to shape the search.
