Helping to find your next rising star

Outsourcing Professionals: Carl Bashford, Prime Appointments

Your consultant should offer a one-to-one approach, and tailor their service to each individual client’s needs.

Let’s look closer

A recruitment agency can streamline your hiring process.

This is done through various things, like having an in-house applicant database and the tools to reach the right people with the right skills; people who might otherwise be unreachable without expensive subscriptions like job boards.

We have the knowledge and skills to screen candidates and make sure only those who are a good fit are submitted for interview.

We analyse so many candidates on a daily basis that we know exactly what works, based on other roles we have filled with a similar specification.

We can also provide consultancy and support to make sure the interview process runs smoothly, calling on years of experience running interviews for clients across a variety of different industries. We will do everything we can to make sure you and the candidate are the right match and no one’s time is being wasted.

We have six divisions at Prime Appointments, each offering specialist knowledge.

As a business diversifies or evolves, a client can require all sorts of roles to be filled – roles that they might not have dealt with before. This is where a recruitment agency can step in and help you with the job specification to make sure you get the right person for the role.

Our recruiters at Prime Appointments are experts in their individual areas and can find you the right person based on previous client experience.

Providing expert knowledge.

It is a recruiter’s job to find out as much information as they can on their sector. This allows them to make informed decisions, and provide knowledge on market conditions, salary benchmarks, market trends, and current hiring complexities.

Knowledge of a geographical area is also important; they might know what issues are affecting a local industrial estate – like a new competitor in the market or a shortage of skills – based on the types of candidates signing up for work.

Maximise the amount of exposure your job advert gets.

At Prime Appointments, we are lucky to have an in-house marketing team with expertise in digital marketing. This means we can push roles and gain traction by using specialist channels, resulting in a higher quality candidate and potentially less time wasted.
