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.

Alexander James Recruiting offer outstanding support and assistance in finding a new role. They are appointed by companies to recruit for them but they quite clearly want the best for the candidates too. They are very knowledgeable of the companies they are recruiting for and provide invaluable advice and guidance with regards to the interview process. Once I had been offered my new role they still remained in contact, ensuring I had received my offer / contract and was prepared for my first day. They have since been in touch asking how I’m getting on. I would highly recommend getting in touch with them for help finding your next new role.

"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."

Having searched for a new job for a few months Alexander James' website popped up and within a week they'd introduced me to a couple of companies looking to recruit, one of which have now employed me. Even in these difficult times Alex worked hard to find me a new job and I’d recommend his company to anyone looking to move forward in their career.

I would highly recommend Alexander James Recruiting. They take a very personal approach to recruitment by really getting to know who you are, and what you are looking for from both sides of the recruitment. Whether you are the interviewer or interviewee they ensure that they both are a perfect match for one another. They displays great knowledge and communication throughout and provided regular updates and information to assist in all aspects of the interview process. I would not use anyone else.
