Staff recruitment is now a specialised discipline. It is therefore vital to conduct your recruitment in the most professional manner to ensure that the right people are targeted in a cost-effective way.
The A P Partnership Ltd will undertake a wide range of recruitment assignments from shop floor supervisors to senior managers and directors. Our approach is to review the vacancy, draft a skill specification with special consideration as to the requirements for experience and personal qualities. We will then progress to a final draft for the advertisement together with a list of the relevant media.

Having reviewed the applications received, we conduct first stage interviews in liaison with the client. After preliminary interviews we will put forward a recommended short list for further consideration, thus saving you considerable time and expense.

• The Consultant allocated to your recruitment assignment will have an in depth knowledge of recruitment and will spend time with the client to gain a practical knowledge of their business. This will enable the consultant to select the best person for your vacancy.
• As part of our structured interview process all applicants are given a psychometric test which helps to determine their suitability.
• If you prefer, we can also act as a 'post box' and advertise your vacancy under our name. We deal with all the administration of the exercise leaving you to handle the interviews.
• We can improve your own recruitment selection by the use of psychometric tests. We are trained and licensed to analyse a wide range of psychometric tests including:
o Personal Profiles that assist the interviewer in identifying any major concerns troubling the candidate, where job satisfaction exists and where there may be some frustration or other barrier to effective working.
o Aptitude tests that indicate the ability of a person to respond positively to training in a work-related environment.
o Tests that provide an in depth analysis of the candidate and provide information on basic personality, team types, leadership and subordinate styles, management and sales competency indicators.

Our recruitment service is significantly more cost effective than the average recruitment agency since we charge a fixed fee rather than a percentage of salary, without any added extras other than costs for advertising and the psychometric tests.
