Many employers use the telephone to conduct initial job interviews, as it’s a quick and cost effective way to screen candidates and narrow down the number of applicants who’ll be invited to attend in-person interviews. Job seekers should remain prepared at all times for a phone interview as this could happen when least expected.

Simply put, the aim of a recruitment agency is to attract, screen, select and place qualified persons in the right job. But there’s a lot more involved in the process, including the analysis of jobs, the sourcing of candidates using traditional advertising and networking methods, the matching of candidates to the right job position, the assessment of the expertise and personality of candidates, and the finalisation of their placement.

It makes a great deal of sense for job seekers to use a reputable recruitment agency. A professional agency will actively market your services and skills to their large client base and this usually means a suitable position is found quickly.

As we kick off the New Year, it's important that we remain innovative leaders in an industry that's highly competitive. Our news this month is our new youtube video, which can be accessed at http://www.youtube.com/AdriaSolutions

With a successful 2012 business year behind us we are now looking forward to meeting the challenges of 2013. So far the year has got off to a terrific start with the exciting news of our qualification as members of the Institute of Recruiters (IOR) – the highest standard mark in British recruitment – and the Association of Recruitment Consultancies (ARC).

As the festive period commences, a large percentage of us spend a considerable amount of time mulling over the past year’s events. Coming to the conclusion that those three hundred and sixty five days haven’t been exactly what we’d have liked, we’re inclined to make changes for the new year. Applying for a new job, or perhaps a promotion in your current company, always feature on “New Year’s Resolutions” lists. Whether you want to leave your current job due to your boss channelling Cruella De Ville or you fancy a new challenge, here are some sure-fire ways to prepare you and ultimately bag yourself that dream position you’ve spent the year lusting after.

With Xmas only a matter of weeks away, it's time to reflect on the past year and the incredible success we've had in market conditions that have been extremely testing. We’ve learnt a great deal in the eight years we’ve been doing business, the most important of these being ‘putting clients first’. And our dedicated team of consultants has done just that with their robust work ethic and dynamic customer service.

Distance learning is something that has been around for a relatively long time, with the Open University established in 1969.  However online resources have been coming increasing popular, with some of the most prestigious Universities offering free courses that can aid you in your job search.
 

The way CVs are written in today’s fast-paced business world, differ in many ways from those written only ten years ago. Not only does a CV need to be concise and clearly set out, but it should also be written (or re-written) to include the latest CV developments. For all those job seekers out there trying their best to impress, here are a few of the new CV writing methods:
 

Whenever your company needs to recruit new staff members, you should think twice about trying to do it yourself – it’s time-consuming and uneconomic. It’s far better to let a professional recruitment company handle all aspects of your staff recruitment.
If you’re not entirely convinced that this is the best route to follow, take a look at exactly how much time and effort is involved in getting suitable candidates lined up for interviews.

London 2012

The curtain has come down on one of the most successful sporting events in the world – the London 2012 Olympics. Lord Sebastian Coe and his organisational team must be thanked for a job well done.

We must also thank the 70,000 volunteers who made Britain proud. No matter where the venue, their work ethic and dynamic positivity and willingness to be of assistance, demonstrated to visitors from all over the world how well Britain can stage the greatest show on earth.

Finding a new job in these uncertain economic times can be extremely difficult, so it’s important that you, the job seeker, do all you can to ensure that you stand out from the crowd. A well-drafted CV, good interview techniques and choosing the right agency are just a few of the things you can work on. Let’s look at these in more detail.
