OUR APPROACH
It all starts with a simple conversation
For us, recruitment is about getting to know you, your business and your needs. Successful recruitment doesn’t happen otherwise. We want to understand your goals and help you achieve them by finding arguably the most important part of any business – the right people.
Client relationships are a number one priority for us – only with strong communication can we work wonders in finding you the best talent that suits your needs. We are not in the business for short-term wins, we are passionate about creating long-term partnerships and have done so with many of our current clients, many of whom we have been intertwined with for 10+ years.
The process
We start by taking a detailed spec of the position(s) and candidate(s) you are wanting to find, whilst also gaining a thorough understanding of where this person/people will fit into your business and what success looks like for both you and them. We then get to work.
Yellow Cat’s permanent and freelance specialists alike work with you throughout the whole hiring process to ensure the right talents are being considered and journeyed through the process. If we see and get excited by a candidate’s potential, we know that you will as well. It comes down to us all asking ourselves “would we hire this person?”.
Whatever service you choose, we’ll be with you the entire way, giving you market intelligence and advice, to help you make better decisions. You will be given our total commitment and should feel confident in every aspect of working with Yellow Cat.
