We love problems.

We like nothing more than sinking our teeth into a big juicy predicament. Preferably with a generous dollop of complication on the side.

What we love is that they give us an opportunity to advise. (Oscar Wilde said, ‘The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.’ We don’t entirely agree, but we know where he’s coming from.)

The best thing about our advice is that it’s grounded in real experience. After all, we’ve been in and around the graduate recruitment and development space for years.

We know what it’s like to be students. Interns. Graduate trainees. Even managers of graduate trainees. Now, we’re sought-after commentators on best practice.

Imagine being new to the game. Now imagine the opposite. That’s us.

What kind of advice can we offer? Well, we can help you understand what graduates make of your recruitment brand. How the marketplace works. How it doesn’t. Why some  organisations are irresistible to top talent, and others make it run a mile. 

You can use us to consult on pretty well anything. Maybe you’ll want an opinion on something discrete, such as a campus recruitment initiative that’s generating more snores than applications.

Or you might want us to advise on your whole strategy. We’re very happy to do this, especially at a senior level. (We’re often to invited to work with those people often described as the ‘C-Suite’.) We like to see how the whole thing fits together, and can often suggest ways to improve – horrible word, but here goes - ‘synergies’. 

We’re particularly good with the trickier parts of strategy, such as establishing the measurements and improvement cycles needed to make you the best recruitment brand out there.

Here’s an idea. If you’d like a taste of what we can do, why not invite us to cast our eyes over your process, or at least a part of it? Besides a chance to see how we work, it’d be a great way to identify improvements and set handy benchmark measurements.
