Search vacancies
An individual consultant is responsible for the full life cycle of the recruitment process. This journey begins by gaining an understanding the requirements of the client, and travels through sourcing, screening, interviewing and delivery of a shortlist of candidates.
Assignment Process
The assignment process is split into several stages from consultation to successful placement.
Consultation
We conduct an informative discussion with the client, which is ideally face-to-face. We take a detailed brief to gain a full understanding of the business offering, culture, vacancy background, role and person specification, including key competencies. The consultant that you meet will be project managing the complete process.
Candidate Sourcing
For search assignments, our Research Manager supervises this part of the recruitment process under the guidance of the consultant and will discreetly make the initial approach to the potential candidate to assess suitability and interest. For database assignments, we interrogate our extensive in-house database, established over a number of years. We have also invested in access to a number of external databases. We identify and contact candidates to assess suitability and interest.
Assessment and Initial Interviews
Suitable candidates are formally interviewed by the consultant. This happens after initial pre-screen email exchanges and telephone calls to clarify information from the perspective of both parties. We then move into formal interviews, which cover biographical, technical and core competency questions.
Long and Short Listing
We usually provide clients with a long list of candidates within a four-week period and aim to shortlist and present three to six relevant candidates between four and six weeks following the initial briefing. We provide the client with a shortlist of candidates and their original CVs, together with interview notes and appraisal including key strengths and any development needs against agreed key competencies for each candidate.
Client Interviews
We will assist the client in arranging the interviewing schedule, ensuring that candidates are fully prepared and briefed. At this stage, psychometric tests can be arranged, if required.
Offer Management
We usually act as an intermediary between client and candidate to facilitate and enable the smooth presentation and acceptance of the offer. We can assist with the negotiation of the package, conditions and other details as required. We are experienced in negotiating on behalf of clients for international roles taking account of different currencies, tax regimes, visa and other employment-related issues.
Post Acceptance
Throughout the duration of the candidate’s period of notice, we maintain occasional and unobtrusive contact, we often provide guidance and advice to the candidate to help manage their transition period from one organisation, and even country, to another.
Due Diligence
We recommend clients obtain written or telephone references from candidates’ previous employers and check qualification and memberships. However, we can undertake this on the client’s behalf.
On-going Relationships
We maintain a close relationship with our clients and candidates to ensure their objectives have been met and to provide ongoing support and advice throughout careers.

I always said to Roheela, who is from Martin Veasey Talent Solutions, it was a miracle that she found me via thousands of thousands of candidates with so limited information posted, like a sand in the galaxy.
Before she reached me, I have worked at previous company for almost 7 years which is also a great company and just started to come up with ideas on how to pursue my career path. Roheela was first headhunter of this journey. Her profession impressed me a lot including the understanding of the R&R, the background introduction, interview arrangements and rapid response, which encouraged me to take this opportunity for interview and accept the offer in the end. As relocation is not an easy decision.
The whole recruitment took about 4-5 months. A bit hard in the boarding date and relocation process, but Roheela helped a lot. She was a great negotiator and a catalyst which accelerated everything.
Roheela and Martin Veasey Talent Solutions are among the top headhunting I have ever met. Nice experience to work with her. I will call this journey, a serendipity.
