Talent

Match has developed a unique, six-step hiring approach which drives our talent offering for clients and candidates alike.

The Perfect Match

A six-step process designed to improve fit, pace and accuracy.

Clients

By understanding your current capabilities and organisational needs, we can apply our matching tool and one-on-one consultancy expertise to attract the highest calibre talent.

Talent

Our profiling tool provides a comprehensive assessment of your suitability for a role and the role's suitability to you, ensuring as close to a perfect fit as possible.

The Power of Data

Accurate and Agile Filtering

In a single project, we received more than 300 candidates and, after completing our six-step process, only one candidate was deemed suitable. That's a 0.33% ratio, and not untypical.

Trusted Network

85% of our resourcing placements are filled via our validated network, 10% via proactive head hunting, and only 5% via traditional recruitment methods.

Removing CV Dependency

Good people and good CVs are not always one and the same. Reflective suitability and validation are therefore a vital part of our process.

Efficiency Improvement

Our six-step talent process helps clients improve hiring ratios, reduce overall cost to hire, and move interview-to-hire ratios from 1-to-5 to 1-to-1.

Our Process

Our process is a flexible framework that adapts, evolves and responds to your needs.

01 Talent Assessment

We validate your requirements against best-in-class role models to increase the chances of success from the outset.

02 Chances of Success

Using your unique profile, we filter high volumes of pre-screened and validated candidate profiles to find the best Match.

03 Validation

Consultants validate candidates against your needs, test inconsistencies, review CV accuracy and confirm working preferences.

04 Interview

Professional interviews and assessments translate strong candidate data into confident hiring decisions.

05 Fit and Offer

We help compare capability, motivation and environment fit so clients can move faster with better certainty.

06 Better Results

The six-step process has been applied thousands of times and is constantly evolving to improve hiring outcomes.

Achieving Better Results

Our six-step process gives clients immediate access to fully validated talent and has been created to significantly increase your chances of success. We know it works, we have applied it thousands of times and we are constantly developing it.
