At David Alan, we take great care in our talent hunting – our due diligence, fast results, the right result first time, our reputation and unique video interview technique is what we are well known for.

Here are what we call ‘The Rules’ – if you’re responsible for the recruitment process in your organisation and you’re not getting this approach, give us a call on 020 8458 7351. We can not only save you 50% of the time you spend on the process but we can save you money too.

1. It’s the responsibility of the talent hunter to fully understand the role to be filled and its role within the organisational structure.

2. The talent hunter should ask searching questions beyond the job specification presented to them to get the FULL picture.

3. Time is a currency and cannot be wasted: the right fleshed out brief and job specification produced in collaboration with the client and talent hunter will produce best results.

4. A talent hunter who doesn’t challenge the brief can’t possibly have enough information to conduct the search well. As an employer, you do want the pick of the crop, don’t you?

5. Identification of personality traits and strengths of the new hire needs discussing and the dynamics of the people-element of the current team understood.

6. A sharp talent hunter will spot the gaps in the brief and ask the right questions!

7. Talent should be met by the talent hunter before the shortlist of candidates is presented to the client.

At David Alan we get excited meeting candidates on behalf of our clients. Our video interview service showcases the candidate in visual and audio form and we present the video with the traditional CV and our observations to the client. We ask pre-agreed questions from the client, capture it on film and send it to you. We also offer advice on offer letters, contracts, inductions, how to set the right goals for the new hire and how to manage the new hire within the first 100 days.
