Veritas Partnership - Integrity And Knowledge
As the complexities of society have increased, the variety of roles has changed and organisations have become leaner both in terms of line and HR management, plus time has inevitably become an increasingly valuable asset.
Partnering with a professional, knowledgeable and efficient recruiter has never been as important. Using the right recruitment partner reduces the amount of management time spent on the whole recruitment process and should ultimately act as a dedicated extension of your own business.
With over 50 years’ experience across the management team, Veritas Partners has weathered the economic storm and by sticking to its core values of honesty, integrity and knowledge, is emerging with yet another year of record growth.
“Times have changed” comments Claire Norton “whereas five years ago local, national and trade press dominated in terms of sourcing talent and whilst alongside executive search processes these media are still very important as a means of accessing relevant candidates and raising employer branding, one of the most significant differences is the evolution of the internet and the ease with which candidates can now apply for jobs.”
In addition, the rise of the social networking media – facebook, twitter, LinkedIn – is also having a significant impact on recruitment methods. There is a danger with this ease of application that less care is taken when applying for a position. Candidates must remember, particularly in the current competitive market, that an employer is looking for an applicant who has the right experience, skills, and personal qualities for the job.
Steve Livesey says “We spend more time now than ever before in coaching candidates and indeed our clients through the process, particularly briefing and debriefing before and after interviews”, he adds “transparency is important at this point to ensure that candidates are aware of strengths, weaknesses and areas for improvement.” Not only do Veritas pride themselves on bringing together talented individuals, just as importantly, they also ensure that culturally their clients and candidates are compatible.
HIGHLY SKILLED
Veritas are highly skilled at using both traditional and modern advertising methods. They have adopted a multi-faceted approach to sourcing the best talent which includes all aspects of advertising, conventional networking, social networking and executive search.
This allows Veritas Partners to maintain dialogue and track both active and passive candidates throughout their career. Nicky Stapleton mentions: “Most candidates are now used to receiving ‘headhunt’ calls and almost expect this as a matter of course.” She adds: “They rarely make a pro-active approach to the job market and if so will simply pick up the phone to their trusted recruiter when the need arises. This is an area where we excel.”
The approach of Veritas Partners is simple – they take time to fully understand the businesses and people they come into contact with, they provide honest, factual advice on best routes forward and ultimately they deliver on expectations with fluidity and professionalism.
