The Discovery System

Transform your recruitment; transform your business

We have been recruiting for over 20 years and are still amazed at how poorly so many organisations recruit.  For those that are already online the candidate journey rarely has the pizzazz that was envisaged when building a career site and implementing an e-recruitment system, leaving both candidate and employer frustrated.  With recruitment agencies still finding ways in through the back door costs have yet to drop to the promised land.

The Discovery System is the start point of our customer journey and is your first step towards transforming your direct recruiting results. We start by taking a systematic review of your 3 year plan, your current activities and infrastructure and build a 3-year strategic game plan that will help you achieve more of what you want. As we act independently we can be more pragmatic than any of your current suppliers and as we have been through this process so many times, we bring a level of expertise unlikely to exist internally (maybe even externally). 

This is not an off-the-shelf process as it focuses on your own UNIQUE needs, capabilities and infrastructure. 

It can’t be pure coincidence that some of our clients such as Mothercare, Tesco and Pets at Home are performing well even today.  Of course one thing they all have in common (apart from working with us!) is that they all invest in a direct resourcing strategy.  By transforming the way they recruit they can hire the kind of people that will transform their business.

Is The Discovery System suitable for me?

Yes, the same issues to apply to any organisation; you need great people to build a great business.  The examples below are typical Discovery System clients:

• International hospitality group Global resourcing strategy review.
• National construction company review of how to boost employee engagement results by using social media tools.
• National retailer to implement a fully integrated company wide e-recruitment system.
• High street retailer to create a talent pool of hard-to-find passive candidates.
