Midlands IT Recruitment Services – Blues Point Ltd
At Blues Point, our IT recruitment services are based on evidence, ensuring that we place the right candidates in the right roles. In order to do this, we utilise a range of cutting-edge tools and techniques. We recruit at all levels, from junior – mid level IT professionals, all the way up to IT directors and CIOs.
Our IT recruitment agency has been in operation since 2003 and our small but mighty team has well over 50 years’ worth of IT recruitment experience between us. In this time, we’ve refined our processes – and the result? A 96% 1-year minimum retention rate of all permanent candidates placed using our methods in 2020-2023.
But how did we achieve this? Find out below.
An Overview Of Our Key Services
IT Headhunting Services
We know that when it comes to hiring the best IT talent, if they’re on the job boards, it’s usually too late. Experienced IT professionals don’t stay on the market for very long, and there is intense competition for them. Our solution? Engage them before they start actively looking for work.
So we don’t just talk to candidates whose CVs are readily available on public job sites. We proactively seek out passive candidates – who represent more than three-quarters of the market. By using a combination of advertising, searching, marketing and headhunting, we can be very selective about who we put forward. The result is a better choice for our clients, and candidates who are less likely to be snapped up by your competitors.
Video Recruitment Services
One of the key ways that we access passive candidates is via the medium of video. We use software called Odro which allows us to send short introductions as well as interview candidates remotely on your behalf.
Using this software we can improve the efficiency and quality of the recruitment process for our clients.
