Jun 2003 - Present
Specialist Engineering and Trades recruiter with a passion for people and engineering. We sculpt recruitment processes for our clients. Using Engineering Peoples proficiency based recruitment methodology we get a look into the future of our candidate and their skills, knowledge ,experience and EQ skills. How do we achieve this? We use a hands on skills assessment conducted in our specialist workshops. Yes two workshops and four interview rooms that look like workshops. The premise is that, If you say you can do something, then, we will get you to show us during the interview. This is pretty much foolproof method of finding the right candidate. If you can't show us your skills in the interview, then you will not be the right fit for the role. From Cad design, Mig Welding, electronics assembly, schematic diagrams, engineering drawings, problem solving and just plain putting equipment together. Resumes tell only the candidates side of the story. Get the full picture with Engineering People. Show less

very different recruitment. Engineering & technical like no other. If F=MA then you realise we are different. Ohms law, engineering drawings, critical path in project engineering means anything to you - then we can help recruit people who know what they are talking about.
