Looking to hire a recruiter to build your head office team? There are two main recruitment models available, contingency recruitment, and Recruitment Process Outsourcing.

Here, we detail contingency recruitment, which is often the only recruitment model people are aware of. We’ll let you know the pros of this model, when you should be using it, and how we do things a little differently here at Exceda Ltd.

Founded in the midst of the pandemic, it’s safe to say that the Exceda Ltd journey has been a rollercoaster.

For much of the last two years, I’ve been a solopreneur and if I’m honest, it’s been pretty relentless. Exceda has grown so rapidly that it’s felt like my feet haven’t touched the ground.

I wanted to take this opportunity, two years in, to give an honest review of Exceda’s journey. It’s been successful, don’t get me wrong, but it’s also been exhausting. So here are the lessons I’ve learnt in the last 12 months.

We’ve been working with Dove Group since August 2021 and in that time we’ve helped them to find seven new employees.

We chatted with Gregor Robson, Sales and Commercial Director to find out how he’s found working with us so far.

We’ve worked with Elsby collaboratively on employee retention, hiring processes, and induction.

We grabbed a cuppa with Carl Elsby, Founder and Partner of Elsby, to understand what it’s been like working with us.

In late 2021, we worked with Document Genetics to find them a salesperson. When we first met, they weren’t sure at what level they wanted to hire. Together, we found the right fit for them.

We chatted with Rob Hunt, Director at Document Genetics to find out how everything has been going since then.

Has your business ever considered contracting an RPO? Recruitment Process Outsourcing can be a fantastic solution for high-growth medium-sized businesses but not a lot or organisations know what it is.

We published “Navigating the toughest recruitment market ever” in February. Just 6 months later, we’re publishing an update, because quite frankly, a lot has changed.

The world of work is changing, which means that recruitment is too.

Remote working due to the pandemic was not a short term thing.

Governments and senior teams may be looking for workforces to return to the office, but this isn’t always what the workforce, the most important element of any successful business, necessarily wants.

At Exceda we recently advertised our first ever fully remote role and we were astounded by the response. For a lot of roles, we usually expect around 10-20 applications, but with a UK based remote role, we received 118.

Even the most attentive recruiter will admit that their own CV probably needs some love from time to time. We’ve all been there, you stumble across your dream job when you’re not even actively looking but the deadline is right around the corner, so you shove in your most recent experience and ping it over.

One in 6.8 of us experience poor mental health during our working life so it’s vital that we take care of ourselves. To protect our mental health during a period of job hunting it’s vital that we practice self-care and be kind to ourselves. Here are some top self-care tips.

We address the biggest recruitment trends in 2022 including what candidates are really looking for.
