Contingency Recruitment
Otherwise known as Database Search or File Search, this is a 'no win, no fee' service utilising the extensive Graduate Recruitment Company database. Our consultants will take a comprehensive job brief and then match the person specification against our pre-screened candidates . Interviews will then be organised and should a candidate introduced by grc commence employment with a client then a fee is charged.

Advertised Selection
In the event that there is a requirement for more than one candidate, specific skill sets are sought, a client wishes to have a branded recruitment presence or attract candidates from competitive companies- maintaining candidate confidentiality - we offer a retained selection service.

Search
In some of our market areas we are able to offer a limited, retained, search option. However, in the majority of our market sectors we are unable to offer search as to undertake a comprehensive search would involve approaching candidates employed by our customers which is unethical and contrary to the code of practice of the REC.

MPS – Maximum Protection Scheme

The Maximum Protection Scheme is an ideal solution for those companies who want to budget for recruitment costs on a long-term basis or have concerns about seeing a return on their recruitment investment.

Instead of traditional terms of a fee and then sliding scale refund over a 6 or 13 week period of time, grc have ripped up the rule book and offer 12, 18 and 24 month solutions.

1. We will charge a small %age a month for as long as the candidate is employed by your business under the period of time you choose. If the candidate leaves for any reason, other than redundancy, then you stop paying. It is as simple as that.

This is a long term option whereby the increased investment is justified by the opportunity to measure a return. The Graduate Recruitment Company share the risk for a much longer period of time then is normal
 
IRS – Interim Recruitment Solution

The ideal solution for those situations when you are left in the lurch. When you have a vacancy that is empty you face time pressures

The Graduate Recruitment Company's IRS solution gives you an Interim measure, someone in the role that not only makes a contribution but can also be useful as a benchmark for selection and useful in inducting the new employee.

Of course Interims are perfect for short term cover such as maternity or sickness as well as being the ideal solution for project based work

You have total flexibility to how you use this facility such as employing them through grc on a temporary, day to day basis or under contract for longer periods.
