Attitude Recruitment
At JHR we always ensure that we match company values to the values of the job seekers we represent, and because our clients are hiring people whose values align with that culture, the end result is a workforce that’s:
- Happier
- More engaged
- Less likely to leave
Our clients prioritise people with the right behaviours and attitude to work, rather than just the skills listed on their CV; they understand that skill levels can be enhanced with training, but attitudes can rarely be changed.
A recent recruitment poll of 1000 business owners found that the 6 top traits employers look for in job seekers are “commitment, honesty, trustworthiness, adaptability, accountability, and loyalty.”
If you have these traits, we want to hear from you!
Our ‘attitude recruitment’ approach really works – for example, we’ve had a great deal of success recruiting candidates from retail, hospitality, catering and care into office-based roles.
We recruit into the following types of roles on a ‘hire for attitude’ basis and have listed the personality traits we look for within these areas:
Sales – are you resilient, driven, positive, confident, focused and persuasive?
Customer service – do you have great communication skills and enjoy talking to people; do you like and care about helping people?
Administration – are you methodical and naturally well organised? Are you a good multi-tasker who can demonstrate great attention to detail and accuracy?
With recruit for attitude recruitment, rather than recruitment by skill set, you can expect an employment package that looks like this:
Salaries ranges: £15,000- £22,000
Holidays per year: 20- 28 days
Type of employment: Temporary and permanent roles
Hours: Usually Monday-Friday with core office hours, although some of the roles we recruit into have fixed shifts with occasional evenings
Company benefits: Varied, ranging from health care, pensions, gym membership, death in service to childcare vouchers
