Q&A
- How much can be covered in 1 day?
Accurate expectations based on the brief will be given. For the average role, in 1 day, I will cover a full search of active candidates on CVLibrary/Reed/Indeed and a LinkedIn search of the first 300 relevant profiles.
- How long will the advert last?
I will run the advert for up to 1 month. The goal is to pause early when we have success with a hire.
- How much additional spend will there be?
This is where you have full control. I can halt searching and screening at any time. You can put a cap on the spend. To manage expectations, following the first day, an extra 8 hours (£480) to source further CV's and interview remaining candidates would be the minimum to create a quality short list.
- How many live positions can you run?
I can run multiple positions. The £1000 initial fee is for each position.
