Michael Page’s recruitment process in 10 steps

1. Get in Touch

To discuss your hiring process, please contact a Michael Page recruitment consultant or upload your job specification to our website and your best point of contact will call you as soon as possible.

2. Clarification of Your Requirements

We arrange an in-depth teleconference or face-to-face meeting to discuss your requirements. If you don’t have a job description, we can help with the preparation at this stage.

3. Market Update

We provide an objective assessment of market conditions, the availability of candidates and how attractive your role and compensation package are.

4. Full Understanding

It’s not all about the technical requirements on paper, so we take the time to understand your business and the type of individuals that would thrive in your culture.

5. Timescale Definition

Project timescales and milestones are agreed to beforehand and stuck to throughout the recruitment process.

6. A Custom-made Solution

Our teams are all specialists in their markets, so while they’ll know your industry inside out, they also know that no two recruitment processes are ever the same. We start with a fresh viewpoint and advise on the best course of action.

7. Access to the Best Candidates

Our access to top candidates is provided by our industry-leading database, range of advertising solutions, active networking with key contacts in the market and staying ahead of social media trends.

8. In-depth Interviewing

We complete extensive interviewing to select your preferred candidates from a group of people who’ve been qualified against all of your technical, creative and personality requirements. We are also able to arrange psychometric testing and assessment centres as part of your vetting process.

9. Referencing

We perform full referencing for your potential new employee to guarantee their credibility.

10. Offer Management

We manage offers to make sure that you secure your new hire in your ideal timescales at the right salary level.
