Q. If you find me a job, will I have to pay a fee?
A. No, all our services are free of charge to candidates. In the event of PJP placing you in a new job, our client will pay us a pre-agreed fee for doing so.
Q. How confidential is your service?
A. Very. We know only too well what a small world it is out there. Your details are treated by us in complete confidence at all stages of the recruitment process. We have known most of our clients for a very long time, and have built up a unique relationship with all of them based on mutual trust. And no, we will not end up sending your C.V. to your present employer!
Q. Why should I use PJP's services?
A. Many reasons. First of all, the service to candidates is free, and is based on over 20 years experience in the market place. We offer sound career advice, including an unrivalled knowledge and choice of potential employers for the job seeker, C.V. writing and presentation assistance, salary and employment advice, and much more. We offer professional and unbiased advice throughout the recruitment process. And we do everything for you confidentially.
Q. Do you send my C.V. to your clients before discussing them with me first?
A. Absolutely not. At PJP we respect your privacy and will not send any of your details, nor approach a client without discussing it with you first and obtaining your permission to do so.
Q. I'm keen to send my C.V. to PJP but am concerned that it will get sent out to a vast number of organisations – will this happen?
A. No. At PJP we firmly believe in targeting your C.V. to a limited number of select clients who are specifically 'right' for you. With our extensive experience gained over 20 years in the business, this ensures that you are seen by clients who we know could utilise your skills and experience to their full potential, and also meet your own aspirations.
Q. I work fulltime and it is difficult for me to speak during office hours. Can I contact a consultant out of normal office hours.
A. Definitely. All our Consultants can be contacted during evenings and weekends. Contact numbers are available at the bottom of each individual job description.
Q. Do you only deal with Permanent vacancies?
A. No. We handle permanent and contract positions, in both the private and public sectors. We also handle part-time permanent and contract vacancies as well.
Q. I’m concerned that my C.V. does not look professional enough – can PJP help?
A. Yes, very much so. First impressions count a lot, and your C.V. needs to be properly presented to a prospective employer correctly. A carefully written, professionally presented C.V. often goes a long way in helping to secure an interview. PJP have substantial experience in C.V. layout presentation and can tailor the format of your C.V. to meet our clients’ expectations.
Q. Will I be informed about new vacancies PJP receive from their clients?
A. Yes. Once you have registered with us you have the option to be advised immediately a new vacancy is posted on our site which matches your pre-selected criteria. You can choose to be advised by email or SMS.
Q. Will I be given assistance during the recruitment process
A. Yes, PJP will give you free professional advice throughout all stages of the recruitment process. For more information on this click the link above 'RECRUITMENT PROCESS'.
Q. Will I be pressurised in to accepting a job offer.
A. Not at all. PJP always have the best interests of their candidates’ at heart. We firmly believe that it is not in the interests of the candidate, client or indeed ourselves to force a candidate into accepting a job offer that is not right for them.
Q. How do I know that PJP are a reputable Recruitment Agency?
A. You don't, unless you have used our services before. But gain some encouragement by reading some of the genuine 'Testimonials' on our website. PJP have been established since 1986, and have built up an enviable reputation with candidates and clients for a long time. We are particularly noted for the professionalism we adopt throughout the recruitment process. Clients don't receive irrelevant C.V.'s, and we don't waste candidates time by discussing with them irrelevant companies or job vacancies either. We work very hard to deliver a first class service to both parties. A substantial number of candidates we work with each year come to us through recommendation or referral, or are people who have used our services in the past over many years.
