Recruitment process
We operate a consistent application
process so whenever the process is different to this standard,
we’ll make it clear within the vacancy details.
Application
If you’re considering applying for one of our
vacancies, see if we’re an organisation you’d enjoy working for
by taking our quick quiz. It might
even help you to write your application! If you’ve already taken
the time to complete an application, we think it only fair that we
let you know the outcome of that application as soon as we can.
That’s why you’ll hear from us within seven to ten days
of the closing date to let you know if you've been successful or
not.
We will only consider factors relevant to the
role you’re applying for when considering your
application.
Interview
If you’re invited to interview, we’ll contact
you providing the details of the interview itself. This letter will
provide all the details you’ll need, including where to go and who
you’ll be meeting. It’ll also include some interview tips to help
you get the best out of the experience.
We’ll be back in touch within a week after the
interview to inform you if you have been unsuccessful. At this time
we’ll also be happy to provide you with some constructive feedback
on your application and performance at interview.
Offer
If the interview was a success, the
interviewing manager will call you within two days of the interview
to discuss suitable start dates and terms and conditions with
you.
Once these details are agreed you’ll receive
your contract and starter pack from us within a week of your offer
of employment. At this point you’ll also be invited to attend a
number of our corporate induction days to welcome you to the
business.
Employment
Before you start with us your manager will invite you along to a
meeting so that we can check your right to work in the UK, this
will require you to supply us with a number of documents. If your
post requires a CRB check, your starter pack will also include a
CRB application form which you should complete and bring along to
the meeting. You’ll also be asked to produce proof of any
qualifications that were listed as essential in the person
specification.
