If you are looking to recruit permanent members of staff, it is important that you employ the right people. Milan Resourcing operate a strict screening process to ensure that only suitable candidates are presented for interview.

We operate a professional service over swift time-frames with extended office hours to make your experience with us a pleasant and effective one. We are completely process driven and ensure that we offer our clients the best candidates in the fastest turn around time at the best conversion ratios.

We first study your requirements, undertake extensive research which helps us to map out the relevant industry, identify potential candidates, create interest about your company, interview them usually on phone and finally recommend interested and suitable profiles to you through a set, pre-defined process. By tailoring our search to your unique needs we are able to shortlist the individual or team most capable of handling the challenges that lie ahead. Milan Resourcing strives to achieve the best results for its' Clients.

With our permanent placement business, we offer both a contingency and retained search based service. In both cases, the process is meticulously planned in order to achieve the required outcome and to ensure that nobody is wasting their time.

Our standard process can be summarised as follows, although we will be pleased to discuss any bespoke variations that you require:-

• Position Definition - a discussion between us to determine all of the required characteristics of the new employee, covering technical, personality, logistical, financial etc. From these discussions, we will prepare a detailed definition of the role which will form the basis for discussion with potential candidates. We identify must-have requirements and nice-to-have ones against which we will assess and shortlist candidates for you.
• Assignment Plan - from our discussions, we also agree a series of timed milestones for the evolution of the assignment through the various stages as detailed below.
• Search - dependent on the vacancy, we develop an appropriate search strategy that is most likely to result in the identification of the most qualified candidates. Candidates can come from a number of sources:
• Our own networks and relationships within the appropriate industry; or
• Our own internal database of candidates, clients and contacts; or
• Third party recommendations & referrals; or
• Proprietary job-boards; or
• Third party advertising
• Candidate Review - as we identify a potentially suitable candidate, we will assess (usually on phone) their suitability (technical, logistical, financial, personal), qualifications and motivation. We interview them as comprehensively as possible against the must-have requirements as well as the nice- to-have ones. At this stage, it may be desirable (as required) for your identity as the client to remain confidential, but potential candidates almost invariably are willing to enter into preliminary discussions with us.
• Your Candidate Interview(s) - assuming the candidate "passes" our review, then we will submit details to you. You are then free to evaluate the candidate in any way that you feel appropriate - multiple interviews, assessments, testing etc.
• Interview Feedback - following the interview, we liaise with all parties and solicit the initial feedback. We will assist both parties in clarifying their views and remedying any concerns or misunderstandings (where appropriate). This is often an iterative process requiring a series of back-to-back conversations, and possibly further discussion between you, as the client, and the candidate.
• Candidate References - as part of our qualification of the candidate, we will seek relevant and recent references on the candidate to cover both professional and personal attributes.
• Negotiation of Offer - when you are satisfied that we have presented your candidate of choice, then with our knowledge of the market and our status as an intermediary, we are able to liaise between all parties throughout the sensitive phase of negotiating the remuneration and benefits package. Taking the views of both parties into account, we are able to mediate to ensure an acceptable outcome for all parties.
• Final Compliance Checking - upon the conclusion of a placement, we suggest that a final candidate reference (if not previously provided) is sought from the candidate's most recent employer together with further security and background checks as appropriate.
• Client Feedback - our aim is continuous improvement and, in pursuit of this, we will ask you for feedback on our performance and confirmation of your level of satisfaction.
• Continuous Support - after the assignment is complete, we like to remain in contact with all parties to anticipate and resolve any on-going issues, and clearly to be available for any further assignments!
