We recognise that people are the most important asset of any business and that it is essential not only to recruit the best available staff, but also to retain them and keep them happy.

People have personalities and interests and are much more than just a skill set. At ASTUTE we understand that and so we endeavour to learn as much as we can about your Company’s ethos, beliefs and practices. This in turn enables us to find the right candidate for you, who not only ticks the right boxes in terms of skills and experience, but also personality fit and attitude.

Our process for Permanent Recruitment is a pro-active effort that entails much more than just writing a few adverts and waiting for the response. We have access to over a million CVs via numerous online databases and our own.

Once identified a candidate is given a thorough screening by one of our experienced consultants prior to submitting to you. With a good Technical Engineering experience in our team, we have the added benefit of being able to “sound-out” some candidates that may not be able to back up certain comments on their CVs.

When submitted, we provide a thorough debrief of the screening process in the form of a CV Cover sheet. This will provide all essential information along with an honest appraisal of the candidate’s abilities and personality.

Communication is paramount to the success of the recruitment process and we maintain contact with our candidates and clients at all stages of the recruitment life-cycle to keep everyone informed.
