We act as a brand ambassador for your company throughout. Here's what that actually looks like.
A face-to-face or video call conversation about your outlook, culture, and what you actually need, with salary benchmarking included. If you're not sure exactly what the role should look like yet, we'll help you build the specification.
We map the market and headhunt as your brand ambassador, since many of the strongest candidates aren't actively applying. We assess technical aptitude alongside attitude and motivation, then send you a considered profile with answers specific to your role, not just a CV.
We manage the diary so interviews happen with ease, facilitate them, and handle expectations and feedback on both sides. Checks, references, and salary negotiation are handled through to an accepted offer.
Support so the candidate starts as soon as possible on the agreed date, with ongoing communication before and after placement through to probation. You'll always know where things stand.
Sector knowledge is the difference between a placement and a placement that lasts. It means understanding the role well enough to know what's realistic to expect, and matching it against what the candidate is actually looking for. It also means understanding the candidate: not just whether they can do the job, but whether they'll still want to be doing it a year from now. Globally, roughly a third of new hires don't make it past their first year. At Polaris, 85% of our candidates are still in their roles 18 months on.
