Frequently Asked Questions

Questions from Jobseekers

Can you help me get a job?

Yes, we would love to help you to secure employment. We are always on the lookout for jobseekers to help fill our current positions and any future positions that we secure from our clients.

We would ask you to review the job postings on our website, to sign up for job alerts and to submit your resume to us. We review each and every resume that is submitted. If our recruiters think that there would be a good fit for the role you have applied for, or any other role we are looking to fill, they will reach out and start next steps.

Most of our efforts will go towards live searches that we are actively working on for our clients. If we don’t have a position that is a good fit for you right now, we will keep your resume in our database. You might not hear from us if we don’t have a fit right now, so please review the website regularly and apply for positions as you see fit. We would love to place you in your perfect role.

Can you help me to secure my visa to help my get into Canada?

No, you would have to contact an immigration lawyer to help you with this process or refer to the Canadian government website Canada.ca for more information.

The occasions that we recruit outside Canada are with the permission of our employer client after all local and national searches are unsuccessful. On our website the specific job postings will state clearly in the cases that we will accept international candidates. In these exceptions we will work with you, the employer and our immigration lawyer to research the viability of required visas.

Will you keep my information confidential?

We only share your resume with a client with your prior knowledge and approval. We will also be as transparent as possible with you and, in most cases, share the name of the potential employer with you.

Are there any costs or charges for me as a jobseeker?

Is it okay to look for a job with more than one recruiter?

Yes, we encourage you to do whatever it takes to secure your next role and working with multiple recruiters should increase your chances of securing employment. On occasion there might be more than one recruiting firm working on a particular position and in this case, we would recommend that you only work with one recruiter for that position.

Do you consider international jobseekers?

We rarely place international candidates in positions in Canada, European countries and Meddle east as employers typically prefer to hire local talent first. We would advise you to organize your visa and flights before applying for a position.

Can I speak to a recruiter?

We would love to speak to every candidate but this is unfortunately not feasible with the number of resumes we receive. In most cases you will only speak to a recruiter personally if we think there’s a good fit for a role we are actively trying to fill. Although we would love to place everyone in their perfect role, we know this is unrealistic and we wish you the best in your job search whether we are involved or not.

Do you offer support with resume building & cover letters?

Once our recruiters think there is a good fit for a candidate, they will do everything they can to help give candidates the best chance at securing the position. There are no additional fees charged for this support.

I am relocating and looking for work in a new city. Can you help?

If we have a position that we are looking to fill and the employer is open to assisting with relocation, then yes. If you are already moving within Canada, European countries and Middle-east  then we will consider you alongside local candidates.

Questions from Employers

What is your recruiting process?

We see recruiting for our clients as a collaborative process. We conduct a thorough intake call with all our clients to make sure we fully understand the details of the position you would like us to fill according to your requirements. Using direct headhunting, our researchers then begin searching for candidates with the right fit.

Once we have sourced and thoroughly interviewed candidates, we will share these with you and ask for critical feedback. From this feedback we will then adjust and fine tune our search further. This fine-tuning process continues until we have found you the perfect candidate.

How long does it take for you to produce resumes for me?

Our goal is to send the first qualified candidates that match your criteria within 2 weeks. This gives our team time to ensure they are sending quality resumes that match the criteria.

Can you keep our name and information confidential?

Client confidentiality is one of the core values of our business and we ensure that any information shared with us is held in the utmost confidence. In a normal search the client name is not revealed until we have completed a full interview to determine qualification & fit. 

In more sensitive searches we adjust our approach in consultation with the employer.

For example, this could be finding a suitable replacement for an owner-run business who is looking to retire and appoint a General Manager as part of an exit strategy, or it could be replacing a Vice President with a successor external to the company.
