Back in 2021, we decided to take a different direction for our internal hiring and rather than looking to hire experienced recruiters only we decided to concentrate on building a Trainee Recruitment Consultant programme. Mistakes have been made along the way but we are learning and adapting as our trainees move through the programme to ensure it works for everyone.

Two years on and we’re taking the opportunity to reflect on this decision and how it’s helped us grow our business. The trainees who have completed the course have been given the opportunity to choose their path and specialism which means they are engaged and invested in what they’re doing. They have learnt the company processes and understand the reasons they are in place. We have some excellent team members who are committed and ambitious.

Here’s some comments from a few of our graduates and why they believe in the programme:

“As a successful graduate of the Next Phase Recruitment Training Programme, I cannot help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude towards the training programme. It has been a game-changer in my career, and I am excited to share my experience with anyone who is interested in the recruitment field.”

“One of the significant benefits of the Next Phase Recruitment Training Programme is that it provided me with an in-depth understanding of the recruitment process. Before enrolling in the programme, I was unsure of how to approach recruitment and what strategies to use to attract top talent. However, the programme helped me develop my skills in identifying and assessing
candidates, and I learned the importance of building relationships with candidates and clients.”

“The programme also offered a variety of learning methods that catered to my learning style. I appreciated that the programme provided a mix of online training, workshops, and one-on-one coaching sessions. The online training modules were interactive and engaging, while the workshops allowed me to network with other recruiters and share best practices.”

“The Next Phase Recruitment Training Programme has been instrumental in my current and hopefully future success as a recruiter. It has given me the knowledge and confidence to approach recruitment with a new perspective and the ability to build strong relationships with candidates and clients. I would highly recommend the programme to anyone looking to take their recruitment career to the next level."
