Three years ago, I had a laptop, a telephone, a spare bedroom and a vision. Today we have Human Recruitment: a business I am very proud not to call mine, but ours. Human was born out of necessity and frustration; I began my business journey after taking redundancy from a great role within a fantastic company. I wanted to apply all of my experience and all of my frustrations with my industry to do things in a different way. Bringing a more Human approach to the recruitment industry hasnât been straightforward. I have been fortunate in working with numerous individuals which have supported and encouraged me and the business. We are still only a small (but mighty!) team of two â soon to be three – but we work hard, love what we do and do it for the right reasons. My husband and daughter have borne the brunt of my borderline workaholism and supported my rantings about why the recruitment industry âdoesnât have to be like that!â As a Project Manager who redesigns commercial kitchens, my husband cares little about blind recruiting, interview turnaround time and whether the job board is dead. But he listens, he nods and occasionally questions my rantings and for that Iâm grateful. Caroline, our Plate Spinner Extraordinaire joined the business almost a year ago. Like a bubbly, hardworking life jacket she buoyed me up after two years of hard slog which included giving birth to both my business baby and my daughter. Caroline has been instrumental in helping streamline business processes and she has also worked hard to build new relationships with clients and candidates. If you havenât yet spoken to Caroline, give her a call, youâre missing out! Supporting our growing number of clients and candidates is sole the reason we exist. Put simply, without them we donât have a business. There are a number of clients we have worked with throughout the past three years and weâre proud to still have only instructed one rebate in the past three years. I canât say I havenât lost sleep over that but Iâm slowly coming to terms with it! As we celebrate our third anniversary Iâd like to thank all of our valued clients and candidates for choosing Human and continuing to provide us with great feedback and for giving us with the opportunity to do what we love. I canât wait to see what years four, five and six will bring. Iâm sure as the business grows and develops those challenges will change, but the unique approach we have developed at Human remains as true today as it did when I fired up that laptop for the very first time. Until then, if you need any support in developing your career or building your team; please give us a call, or pop into and say hello. Weâd be happy to help⊠and we also have cake!

At Human, we understand that finding the right candidate to grow and develop your business is an important decision. We also understand that it can also be a process which is just as daunting for business owners as it is for the eager candidates arriving for their first interview. As recruitment professionals itâs our job to make the process as easy and pain-free as possible, both for business owners looking to fill their vacancies and individuals looking to take the next step on their career ladder. Â When those needs match, it can be the beginning of a long and successful relationship; itâs an important decision for all concerned. Earlier this year we were approached by a global medical device manufacturer, which was having difficulty finding skilled candidates for a number of roles in the business. Each role was varied and required very different skills and experiences â ranging from event and exhibition management roles to sales support. Over the course of the year, we helped the company to not only find one skilled candidate but five: All of whom have settled well into their new roles and already forging careers with the business. As the year draws to a close, we thought weâd share some feedback we received from some of those successful candidates: âHuman helped to ease the pressure of looking for a new job â it felt like I had someone fighting in my corner and it was refreshing to feel that my needs were being put first. They are professional yet personal: I even received a good luck on your new job card from them. They constantly kept me in the loop and updated: They gave me the perfect start to the newest chapter in my career. It’s a great place to work and Iâve met some great peopleâ â Robert, Event Logistics Co-ordinator âWithin a few hours of applying for the role I received a call from Human. They asked me about my work experience, my skills and a little about me. After this they gave me more information about the role and I was intrigued and wanted to find out more, we arranged to meet that same day.â âThe ladies at Human contacted me asking how my interview went and just a few hours later I received another call from them saying they would like to offer me the role. I have never been so happy to receive a call!â â Hannah Exhibitions Co-ordinator âA friend of mine told me about Human Recruitment, so I gave them a call, we arranged to meet the following day to go through the registration details. Amy and Caroline have been brilliant throughout. They listened to what was important to me and found me a position that was perfect and only 5 minutes away from home, they kept in touch with me throughout the whole process, made me laugh and made my job search enjoyable. âI would like to say a huge thanks to them for everything!â â Jane, Customer Order Processor All five candidates placed by Human have continued to flourish in their new roles, and perhaps the positive comments we have received illustrates that recruitment isnât simply about helping a business to fill a vacancy, but perhaps itâs more important to find individuals who can grow and develop in their new roles. If you would like us to help your business to grow, or take the next step on your career ladder, please contact us on 0114 399 0085/ 01709 717212 or email hello@recruithuman.co.uk

Kick Start 2016. Health, Wealth & Success Birthday Breakfast Read More »
We all have to be Super Human at times and deciding the Who, What, With, Why and When can be a tough choice to make but when the drive/support is passionate throughout the company itâs wonderful to know that you can make a difference with a couple of quid during business hours. As both Amy and I are from South Yorkshire we love getting on with the day job helping both local businesses and candidates achieve their goals but at the same time having the opportunity of supporting local and national causes. From sponsoring the Rotherham Football Sunday League (Human League), running a Macmillan Coffee event raising an amazing ÂŁ197.04 to our latest venture Soup-er Human, an event we held last week to support Rotherham Hospice. With the help of some amazing people Reece of Urban Pantry Deli in Sheffield, the team of Moorhead Savage (Paulsâ culinary skills showcased in his amazing Minestrone Soup) and Tesco in Rotherham to name but a few, through selling soup, rolls and cakes to occupiers and visitors to the Moorgate Crofts Business Centre we raised ÂŁ140.00. We have also been proud to be involved with Grimm & Co and falling under their spell to encourage both childrenâs imagination & writing skills made volunteering to run their recruitment campaign for free an easy decision. We also attended LEAF 2015 which was held at Magna last month, presenting employability skills to teenagers and supporting job seekers find a direction and support in securing work. To close the year of 2015 we are holding Afternoon Tea around the Tree on Monday 14th December again in support of Rotherham Hospice but also, as we are a drop off point for Mission Christmas Cash for Kids this will be the final drop off day for unwrapped gifts for the HallamFM campaign before we magically become Christmas elfâs and deliver the gifts to Alan Ogle and his Super Human team. As mentioned in my previous blog, time really does fly when you are having fun whilst doing a job you canât wait to get into the office for but also having the opportunity and encouragement to be able to make a difference throughout the community (Miss World quotes finished J) Helping change doesnât always have to be about giving money, an hour of your time a month or holding a sponsored dog walk all adds up. Stay tuned for more information about this, our February event. I am proud of what we here at Human Recruitment do alongside the day job and long may it continue! If you would like to know more about our Super Human approach or are a charity looking for support with recruitment please contact us: superhumans@recruithuman.co.uk 01709 717212 or 01143 990085
