Still not sure about our sustainability recruitment services?

Here are some frequently asked questions answered by our experts at GS2 Partnership to help your decision making that little bit easier.

The video shortlist technology allows you to see and hear from the candidates before you meet them, therefore you know that when you are requesting them to interview that there is a high chance of them being the right fit for the position both professionally and culturally.

Recruitment is always a risk, however the more we can derisk the situation the better when retaining staff in the long term term. Often candidates are hired on their experiences and skill sets however not much at all is done from a behaviors perspective and this is where we find hires do not work out. By using our behavioral profiling tool it will allow the company to highlight the behaviors they are looking for from a candidate before going to market allowing the candidate to go through the same process to ensure there is real behavioral synergy from the start.

Ensuring diversity throughout a process is imperative to us. By utilising our skills to attract diverse candidates by many methods such as the use of language within our adverts along with how we target the market to find the right skill set allows us to provide diverse shortlist.

You’re one step away from fulfilling your sustainable business goals.

Simon Bown,

Director of HSEQ

Working with GS2 to recruit our Sustainability Lead - Development was a completely different experience to any recruitment I had done in the past. I had already seen a successful outcome of this approach when they recruited on behalf of the Better Buildings Partnership. What you get with GS2 is a very personal approach - they genuinely care that they are providing the right candidate and the right solution, and they manage expectations well.

Janine Cole,

Social Impact and Sustainability Director

The level of service, both for me as the client and for the candidates was exceptional and the quality of all candidates was extremely high. From the initial briefing to the final placement of the successful candidates I could not fault the approach and ethos. I look forward to having the opportunity to work with Josh and GS2 again in the future.

People Director - Group Functions, Compass Group

GS2 helped recruit for two critical roles within the BBP and for a short-term project manager. The service from them has been exemplary.

From the detailed engagement on the brief to scoping out the market, the process was set up for success extremely well.

They really understood our organisation, our recruitment needs and how best to position the roles for potential candidates.

The initial engagement GS2 undertook with candidates, including interviews and candidate profiling was incredibly thorough meaning that we received a very high quality of shortlisted candidates.

They worked alongside us closely all the way through the recruitment process, supporting us and the candidates to ensure our expectations and aspirations were well matched.

As a result, we are incredibly fortunate to be welcoming some fantastic talent into the BBP team - what more can you ask?
