CANDIDATES

Working with Concept for the first time was the exact experience that you would hope for from a recruitment partner. They were professional, organised, and took the time to understand our business and what we were looking for in potential candidates.

Lauren sold the benefits of our agency to candidates well, which definitely helped to generate more interest in the role, and worked really hard across several roles to ensure we had a constant stream of applications and interviews. Very happy to recommend!

In a world where getting the right people, whether coders or content professionals is challenging, and we work with a number of recruiters to build a strong shortlist, Jo and Concept more often than not, find the talent we employ.

I’ve worked with them over many years and roles and they have always demonstrated real sector knowledge and connections, plus they are pleasure to work with.

The calibre of our team is what keeps us at the top of our game working with global brands, and Concept is now part of our recruitment strategy. We only look to employ the very best creatives so we don’t expect to pick them up easily.

Recruiting for us is difficult because our standards are so high and we are careful about who we take on, but Jo and the team are relentless in their efforts on our behalf, scouring further and further afield to find us exactly the right people. And they’re always great to meet socially too, and genuinely interested in what’s going on in our business.

The Concept Personnel team were really great at helping me find the right candidates for my business. Lots of positive communication throughout the process and some really good quality candidates reached in a short period of time. Jo & her team are professional, friendly and approachable. They have good knowledge of the roles they are recruiting for and don’t waste time sending candidates who are clearly not right for you. I will use Concept Personnel again. Thanks Jo & team.

Working with Concept saves me hours of time trawling through CVs and interviewing people. Because Jo and the Concept team have industry backgrounds they understand how agencies work and the sort of people we need, so everyone they put forward will be a good fit. They can open doors and help me fish where the fish are, and that’s invaluable.

It has been a real pleasure working with Concept. Erin took the time to learn about our business, listen to our requirements and gave us some great advice. The whole recruitment process was managed well from start to finish and the experience has completely changed the way I feel about recruitment agencies

Concept were extremely pro-active and effective at finding the right candidates for the roles we were looking to fill. Erin really understood what we needed and delivered high calibre candidates quickly. We were able to fill three roles in a little over a month and we are delighted with our new employees.

Very happy with the process and will most definitely be using Concept again!

Kelly at Concept has been so helpful filling our recent vacancy. As soon as we set her to work the CVs came rolling in. We saw a few really good quality candidates for the role, all with relevant skills and experience, which filled us with confidence that Kelly would find the right person for the job, and she did just that! Would definitely recommend using this excellent and very cost-effective service.

I’m not a fan of using recruitment agencies at all. My experience in the past has been poor, feeling like you are just one in a queue of many. With no apparent expertise, they often send candidates that are not qualified. With Concept, the communication was good, I’m a big fan of using all types of channels and I’ve had text messages, WhatsApp, email and telephone calls. Some might think that’s over communicating but I absolutely don’t. Particularly if you are in a hurry like I was to find the right person. Concept found 6/7 candidates quickly and that was invaluable to us. They did a great job.

A very friendly and professional service – Jo and the team at Concept Personnel went the extra mile to source suitable candidates, arrange interviews and extensive follow up. I would recommend them.

Concept understand the challenges of running a young but growing business. Every new appointment marks a critical stage and every person we take on must be exactly right for us, in both skills and personality.

Jo’s contacts book, combined with industry background, means she can pinpoint that person with no time wasting. They don’t do the hard sell, we have a real relationship and we get a personal service from experts in our sector.
