Talking Talent

Tips for a telephone interview So you’ve got a telephone interview. Well done! Does this require less of an effort than a face to face interview? Not at all – it’s a vital part of an interview process that many time precious recruiters now use. An interview is still an interview even if you don't have to go to their offices. You need to be as prepared as you would be for a face to face interview.

A fresh start - read about how we helped Tricia with her search...

As we've recently launched our specialist PA and EA recruitment service, and co-incidentally received some fantastic feedback from one of our great candidates placed in an EA role - we decided to (on this occasion) blow our own trumpet and share it here. We get a lot of our clients and candidates through word of mouth reccomendations - something we pride ourselves on and it also is a great way to build those close contacts and strong relationships.
