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.

Sarah Reynolds

Area Sales Manager - Crown Lift Trucks UK

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.
