Sometimes you need external experience to recognise potential and release effectiveness. Meadows is a consultancy that listens. We ask questions. We challenge. We are completely committed to maximising opportunities for our candidates’ personal development and for our clients to excel in the recruitment market.

The transparency of our working practices, our training and professional standards, ensure that the recruitment process is good value, accessible and comprehensive. The trust that is formed will uncover potential beyond expectation. 

With 30 years IT recruitment experience we know how to build talent pools and talent pipelines. This means we find those elusive candidates - both skill-set, experience and culture fit - who will grow with the business and become a long-term asset.

It’s a win-win for our candidates too. We help them with career advice, cv writing, interview skills, re-numeration negotiation and how to present themselves in the most effective way to potential employers. In finding the right job with the right cultural fit, the feedback from the people we've placed is that we helped them realise their career ambitions.

The more we know the better we can serve you. We take a full detailed brief. We will ask questions, ascertain your culture, discuss the skills and experience you require along with salary expectations and aim to get it right first time. All that is needed in return is your time and commitment to make it happen. We want to be effective in making that match. 

This is where the magic happens. As a client you never see this part of the process. Our extensive networking and understanding of the marketplace, initial search and marketing effectiveness will give you that quality shortlist. You get well matched, well briefed candidates.

Clients and candidates are thoroughly briefed about each other prior to the interview. Meadows encourages feedback throughout the process. It helps retain interest with competitively sought candidates, and for unsuccessful candidates, clear developmental feedback is as important - changing jobs should be an exciting, creative and positive life experience.

When an offer is made to a candidate, we help ensure information is supplied simply and clearly to help the candidate decide. In line with best recruitment practice, Meadows Recruitment will gather proof of identity, confirmation of qualifications and right to work documents for the UK.

Our involvement doesn’t end at contract exchange. We stay in contact with both client and candidate to provide support during the settling in period. We usually like visiting workplaces at this time to obtain a bit of feedback and make sure everyone is happy.
