The 'Passive' Candidate

The recruitment industry as a whole has too much of a focus on quick results. Thats why as a business we set ourselves apart by developing long term, sustainable relationships. At our core is the term 'passive' candidate. As a business, you want to employ the very best and ultimately have access to the small pool of individuals who are able to truly add value. This is where we come in. Alexander James Recruiting spends time getting to know those professionals seeking a move over a period of time looking to develop their career and in affect those who are often under the radar. This approach leads to more successful long term results for our clients and candidates alike.

For certain, specific recruitment projects we may recommend a retained option. This involves a partial, upfront payment in order to begin the search and a final payment upon placement of a candidate.

Alex has helped me a lot during this uncertain time. After being made redundant Alex and I spoke a lot on the phone. He found the perfect company to fit my skills and career desires. I couldn’t have done it with out him. I strongly recommend Alex as a skilled recruiter with contacts that can help you progress your career going forward. As a former recruiter myself I find Alex a rare breed as far as the constant contact and chats we had!! I can’t thank him enough

"Working with Jordan and Alexander James Recruiting was a real pleasure, he was there at every stage of the process and found me a role that matched my needs and requirements, in, what appeared to be, a seamless and professional manner. I was kept up to date the whole way through and Jordan was always available to speak to even on days when I knew he was on annual leave. I thank Jordan for all of his help and although I would love to say I will use him again, I know I won’t have to as he found me a job that I love and I will be staying here for a long time to come."

Chadd Parry

Business Development Manager - McCue Corporation

Candidate

I left my previous role and within a few days a consultant at Alexander James Recruiting had found that I was looking for work on LinkedIn and contacted me. They had several vacancies to offer and after sending my CV they had me an interview within hours. They kept me well informed of progress and landed a second interview and consequently got a start date . They were a pleasure to deal with and managed the whole process until my start date by keeping in touch regarding my employment.

Business Development Manager - Bennie Equipment

Alex found my details on Linkedin ,made contact and introduced me to Titgemeyer( UK) Ltd. I subsequently attended interviews with them and commenced employment as their new ASM for the southern Region. Throughout the complete process from start to finish Alex was very supportive, professional and his communication skills between myself and my new Employer were excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex to any company looking to recruit or professionals looking for a new opportunity.

Alexander James Recruiting is the best recruitment company I have worked with. Very honest and sincere, and they work hard for their candidates' success and career. They continue to contact me after joining a company to check in. Rob is outstanding and an absolutely amazing person who does help and support your job hunting, not just an ordinary recruiter.

Jeonghee Lee

Key Account Applications Engineer - Exide Technologies

Candidate

I came across Alex and his company when scrolling through LinkedIn. I was ready for a change of job role, but was struggling to find the next move that met all my search criteria. I had several long chats with Alex, where overtime my requirements for my next role became clear to him. I must say, he really listened to my needs and only presented opportunities that would come close and if there was any difference he made the differences clear. He opened some doors for me that would have been very difficult to open myself. I've now started the role and so far it is everything that I was told it would be.

Sam Farrar-Fry

They took a genuine interest in me as a person which was valuable in securing this role. Their friendly, helpful yet professional approach was exceptional. They were in constant contact throughout the process which was extremely reassuring knowing they took a genuine interest in the position I was applying for. A refreshing change to previous agencies and consultants I've spoken to in the past! Highly recommended Alexander James Recruiting's services to anyone looking to develop their career.
