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.

With reference to Martin Veasey Talent Solutions and working closely with Roheela, I was successfully placed in my current position as Site Operations General Manager. During this time Roheela has maintained a close and professional relationship, with respect to my personal career progression and looked to support my role, with access to advice and guidance on issues pertaining to recruitment.
The recruitment process was tailored for the role and it has since become clear that Roheela clearly understood the Operations role and more importantly the culture of the company. The process quickly and efficiently moved from a broad understanding of my operations experience to some targeted questions relating to my own personal motivations and goals. Once shortlisted I was then given a detailed brief of the appointment, where Roheela and I discussed and felt, were aligned with my own personal career goals. Prior to the interview process, I was well equipped with all the information supplied by Roheela and felt confident that I would indeed be a good match for the position.
In summary, I can confirm that I had a positive experience dealing with Martin Veasey Talent Solutions who clearly understood that a candidates aspirations are equally as important as to the needs of the recruiting business. I can conclude that my current appointment has best placed me to further my career and that my current performance has demonstrated that the company have chosen the right candidate with the candidate matching process used by Roheela and the team.
