19 This is to certify that:
work as we profile them following their win in Corporate Vision’s Corporate Coaching and Recruitment Awards 2019. For many industries operating today, speed, efficiency and adaptability are key to address constantly evolving workforces. Pairing highly-skilled employees from around the world with top-tier businesses for more than twelve years, Group NB prides itself on its ability to offer the best recruitment services that are tailored precisely to any client specifications. Whether individuals are looking for a job to suit their skillset, or a firm is looking for that perfect applicant with all the right qualifications and experience, this firm understand exactly what needs to be done, before setting out to make it happen.
Group NB’s approach to recruitment is brilliantly simple; it focuses on providing specific and detailed job postings to ensure that both employer and jobseeker can find the right fit. By ensuring that job listings are accurate, administrative time can be reduced and the hiring process becomes faster and more efficient. Taking into consideration not just the end goal of finding the right candidate, but also the manpower and hours going into the hiring process, the firm’s professional, fast, and efficient service maximises productivity and profitability for all involved. Recruiting in four main areas, candidates and companies can look for and advertise for roles that are temporary, permanent, international, and warehouse-focused. Each division of Group NB’s recruitment is completely customisable, so that the firm can create the management assistance program that works best for the client. There is something for everyone, be it part-time temporary work in a warehouse facility, or a full-time and long-term job that may be the perfect job.
The firm’s offering of a full-service staffing solution internationally continues to stand it head and shoulders above the competition. With international and warehouse recruitment services being more specific than general job postings, Group NB combined it seamlessly with the existing two divisions. The result is that the firm has become a self-titled “one shop stop”, where candidates looking for the right job might just find one to stay in for a very long time.
Crucially, the firm do not rely on one single channel of communication to entice potential employees or companies in search of topquality candidates. Using every available tool in their kit, the staff at Group NB scour the world in search of nothing but the best. Internal staff experience, which has been refined over years of service, means that the firm can narrow down candidates to only those that could be the one for companies needing a qualified and experienced individual to step in and do a job quickly. Employment does not need to be the time-consuming and tedious process that it can become. Instead, using the expertise, diligence, and international renown that has been refined over years of pairing companies with candidates, Group NB are creating harmonious workplaces across the world where people enjoy going to work each and every day.

Best Digital Recruitment Company - North West England & Recognised Specialists in SaaS & Ecommerce Recruitment - England Specialist recruitment agency, WüNDER_TALENT, may only have been incepted a little over 18 months ago, but it is already carving its place in the market and proving that bigger isn’t always better. “We have specific candidate attraction models which allow us to engage with a wider audience which enables us to build bigger and stronger talent pools for our clients. These models have been designed from years of research and investment.” It is primarily this investment and focus that sets WüNDER_TALENT apart from competitors as it has systems and tools in place that other agencies simply do not have.
WüNDER_TALENT is a recruitment agency that focuses on supporting start-ups and high growth companies with their recruitment needs on a contract and permanent basis across the UK. Predominantly focussing on the tech, eCommerce and Saas markets, WüNDER_ TALENT covers a range of roles, from graduate to director level. Matt Williams & Jay Andrew, directors, tell us more about the services that the firm provides and its aims. “We have invested heavily into our candidate and client attraction model where we work closely with a marketing agency that support us with our brand, content and overall marketing strategy. This enables us to reach candidates that are not always on a job board or LinkedIn,” he begins. “Those are the candidates all recruiters want but it’s a matter of having the right processes and strategy in place to be able to do this. “We have also invested heavily into the systems we use and we are constantly looking at how we can improve to best serve our clients and the candidates we represent. Keeping up to date with the latest tools and systems in the market is important to us and one that we dedicate a lot of time to.
“When you interview candidates to join your business it gives you a great insight into how your competitor works,” Matt & Jay explains. “We find it amazing from speaking with candidates just how limited some recruiters are in terms of tools and systems.” WüNDER_TALENT still uses most of the traditional methods and tools for recruitment too, such as job boards searching and LinkedIn recruiter. “These will always have their success stories,” continues Matt & Jay, “But we now work in a way where we are constantly engaging with our markets, and having candidates referred to us, which puts us in a great place when our clients reach out and have a specific requirement.” Understanding a clients’ brief is key to any successful delivery, and Matt & Jay explains that WüNDER_TALENT is geared to ensuring it understands its clients’ values and their culture to the best of its ability. The firm screens candidates on their technical ability using a bespoke questionnaire which has been specially designed and implemented to save time and to be sure that the best candidates are consistently being selected. It isn’t all about the candidates however, and Matt & Jay are quick to sing the praises of his dedicated team of recruiters who work closely to ensure they always hit the mark.
“It’s all about personality, motivation and drive for us. Don’t get me wrong, previous experience in sales is great but it’s not always essential,” elaborates Matt & Jay. “Recruitment is a people business and some people forget that. If you cannot build a rapport with a candidate or client then you won’t last long in this industry! That is why we put personality as one of the key elements to our own recruitment process. “We all know the more you put in the more you get out but understanding what drives and motivates an individual in turn helps us to build an environment which they can excel in.” And something is definitely working as WüNDER_TALENT was recently named Best Digital Recruitment Company for the North West England & Recognised Specialists in SaaS & Ecommerce Recruitment in England in the 2019 Coaching and Recruitment Awards. “It’s a fantastic feeling to have won this award considering we have only been in business for 18 months,” Matt exclaims. “We have been working very hard in establishing who we are and where we fit in the market. It was a huge turning point for us as a business and we now have a clear vision of what we want to achieve as business and how we can make a difference. “As a business we want to continue to show that we can compete with the bigger agencies out there and show that being bigger doesn’t always mean you are better.” CONTACT DETAILS Contact: Matt Williams Address: 12-14 Robert Street, Manchester, M3 1EY Telephone: 0161 244 9222 Web Address: www.wundertalent.co.uk
