At Southgate Consulting we appreciate how important it is to keep things personal.
Fair, honest and informative communication and advice are always central to our service level, ensuring that all parties are thoroughly and accurately aware of progress at all times. This cements the relationship between client and candidate, protecting the integrity of both.
For clients, this means “getting under the skin” of the position, their team and their culture. What is actually essential or desirable? What will make someone succeed in your business? Ensuring satisfactory of delivery – a quality shortlist of selected candidates through thorough research and evaluation.
For candidates, it means spending time examining strengths and development needs, before Keeping business personal introduction to a prospective employer. Listening carefully to reasons behind moving. We prepare candidates thoroughly. We give honest feedback, which is constructive and meaningful, both to those moving forward through the process and those that have been regretted.
It sounds fairly obvious when you write it down, but in short, we really do care about getting the right person into the right business, rather than just filling a vacancy.
Recruitment has become very transactional, even automated for some. Southgate Consulting deliberately tries to be the complete opposite of this. This has been the Southgate approach since inception, and it’s something we’re very proud of today and will continue in the future.
