The challenge: This Senior technical role within this organisation was part of a long-term growth plan and played a critical role in the success of this business. As such, while technical skills were important some of the less tangible soft skills were of critical importance to assess and identify in prospective candidates.
Our solution: In essence, we spoke to a lot of individuals! We were very familiar with the technical needs of this person so quickly identified appropriate profiles from within our network. We then went about speaking to each of them and really understanding how well they would fit within the culture of growth at this organisation.
The outcome: After struggling with many poor applications, our client was able to close their chosen candidate 6 weeks after we took the brief. This candidate has now joined the business where she is just as happy as our client is.
