MY PROMISE OF SERVICE TO YOU
Making promises is easy but I believe that any promise should be backed up by a firm guarantee, so here's mine.
1. We use a Matching Grid to show suitability on keys to hire
2. Transparency of the positive and negatives on each candidate
3. Accuracy of key data such as salary, benefits, packages and reasons of leaving
4. Do what we say by when we say we’ll do it
5. Make sure the candidate matches their CV
6. Ensure the candidate is fully briefed before an interview
Should I break any of these promises I will give you a 25% discount on the fees we have agreed if you feel it appropriate. No quibbles; no doubt.
