We collect data and information on candidates that will assist us and potential employers to make a decision whether they may be suitable for an employer’s role.

The majority of our data comes from  job applications of our advertised roles into the business or the submission  of CV’s. This normally comes via email, whether direct from 3rd party websites or to our consultant’s email inboxes from our website. We also collect data from both publicly available databases of candidates who have listed their CV for viewing by agencies and employers or from password protected databases which we subscribe to in order to access candidate data. In all instances, candidates will be required to give consent for their data to be held on our systems. Where consent has not been given and we are in receipt of data, this will not be used in any way and be deleted from all platforms.

​

Data is collected from a range of sources and uploaded onto our licenced company software or platforms. These sources may include CVs submitted to the business directly either digitally or off-line, CV’s submitted indirectly through referrals, CV data from online job board sites, collected verbally over the phone or face to face, via text messages or online messaging.
