In Q2 of this year in the UK the average Perm Consultant made 4 placements and the average Temp Consultant made 6 placements. (UK) When we looked at the consultants at the Top 5 agencies on Recruiter Insider for Candidate Experience, we discovered that: 🚀 the average Perm Consultant there made 5 placements 🚀 the average Temp Consultant made 10 placements. In Q2 alone, the agencies with the highest candidate experience scores made 1 extra Perm placement per consultant and an 4 extra temp placements per consultant. Highlighting as always the impact candidate experience has on your placement numbers. The data doesn’t lie, an improved candidate experience means more placements. But if you are not measuring this you can improve it either. So if you want to make more placements get in touch with me. The data doesn’t lie!

I have just written a blog post with my top tips for Python and Django developers writing your Resume. This is available on the Foxley Talent website and I'll link in the comments too. In the post I covered my thoughts on what I like to see in these parts of the Resume: 👤 Personal Info 🗣 Personal Statement 📊 Skills Matrix 💼 Work History 🎓 Education ♻ Community Involvement 🎣 Personal Interests Having a good Resume will really set you up for your job search. It's such an important document to get right. If you are looking at the moment and want any advice on yours, I'll be happy to review if you send it over in a DM. #DjangoDeveloper #PythonDeveloper #ResumeTips #DjangoRecrutier

Do you worry about staff retention? Actually, let me ask you this... Do you know what your retention rate is? You might not think it's important 👎 But it is. Here's why : 👀 Replacement costs are roughly 6-9 months salary (on average). If you want to cut costs, you need to know what they are 👀 The longer that someone stays with the company, the more productive they become. Learning new skills is easier, they make fewer mistakes, and they're more likely to progress professionally too 👀 Work towards improving the attraction, interview and onboarding processes to reduce candidate dissatisfaction Before you reactively recruit again - it might be worth looking at staff engagement. Think about : ➡️ Culture ➡️ Morale ➡️ Succession planning ➡️ Creating collaborative teams Stop worrying about them leaving. Find reasons to make them stay. ...From day one. #Recruitment #CivilEngineering #AES

I've spoken with clients recently that have struggled to secure talent for their SDR teams. Unnecessarily lengthy interview processes, amongst general market conditions seems to be the main culprit for this. With attrition rates as high as they are, striking the right balance of thoroughly evaluating suitability and maintaining momentum in the process can be a tough one. Here's how I would structure a succinct 3 stage interview process that should cover off both: Stage 1 - Behavioral Interview with Talent Team/Hiring Manager via teams - Assessing Cultural Alignment/Understanding of the company - Opportunity to get to know the candidate Stage 2 - In person Sales Focused Interview with 2 x roleplays - Sales related questions to assess general understanding/competency - Roleplay #1 to assess ability to think under pressure, rejection handling etc - Roleplay #2 to assess coachability and willingness to take on feedback Stage 3 - Meet The Team / Informal Offer Realistically these 3 stages could be completed in 10-14 days tops, but does require a commitment from all parties to keep things moving. What are your thoughts?
