Every contact is logged in a detailed progress report—providing complete transparency.

Candidates undergo a multi-stage evaluation:

• Behavioural and competency interviews
• Psychometric profiling (included at no extra cost)
• In-depth referencing
  All assessments are conducted by your dedicated Managing Consultant.

5. Deliver

You receive a shortlist of fully vetted, high-calibre candidates, complete with CVs, psychometric results, interview summaries, and package details.
