OUR APPROACH
Our staff have the expertise and sector knowledge to provide you with the candidates that are right for your company. You can choose to be completely involved, or to sit back and let us complete the recruitment process for you. We offer employers a range of services which include:
DEDICATED TRAINING
To ensure jobseekers are ready to hit the ground running, we provide access to a wide range of industry related training courses. These ensure professional work licences and qualifications are in place. Some sectors, such as care, construction, hospitality, and security, are covered regularly, but we can source and cover other areas of skills development as required.
WORK TRIALS
We understand that staff can make or break a business. Before you make the decision to recruit new staff, we offer a short introductory work placement. This offers an opportunity for both the candidate to trial the job, and for you as the employer to ensure they are are a positive addition to your team, with good aptitude for the role of the job.
FINANCIAL INCENTIVES
Initial work placements last up to 4 weeks before you are required to make a decision on offering a permanent role. During this time, we will maintain contact with you and the candidate to ensure both are meeting expectations. We cover the candidate’s wages and travel costs, paying the ‘Glasgow Living’ hourly wage. This allows you to effectively trial a new staff member without financial risk.
GLASGOW GUARANTEE
Other incentives are available, linked to different sectors and job roles. One of these is the ‘Glasgow Guarantee’, which matches 50% of a candidate’s wages for the first 12 months in employment.
