Roll up, roll up…it’s our 2019 Recruitment Service Brochure!

Date: 04 June 2019

Yes, we thought it was about time we finally summed up our wonderful recruitment services in a nice shiny PDF format. Surprisingly, I (Kate here – hello!) hadn’t managed to do this over the past 7 years…too busy with all that recruitment malarkey! But, as Team Horizon has changed shape again at the start of […]

Date: 17 January 2019

  So, I’ve recently reached a bit of a career milestone… I have been working in the recruitment industry 18 Years.  Not sure exactly how it’s been 18 years!  When I start thinking about this period of time, so much has happened and so much has changed too… I have been very lucky on my […]

It’s World Mental Health Day which got us thinking…

Date: 10 October 2018

As you might know, it’s world Mental Health Day today which got us thinking about a few things… Our  brains  are  weird  aren’t  they? Clever, mysterious and mischievous. They’ll often do things we don’t want them to do and act in ways we can’t always control. Mental Health issues stem from one place; the spongey […]

Covering Letter Magic!

Date: 05 September 2018

  Most candidates will at some point have the “do I need to write a covering letter for this?” dilemma. Especially if it’s the 20th job you’ve applied for that day and you just don’t have the energy, words or enthusiasm to get something half-decent across to a potential employer. Or perhaps you’re worried about […]

We recently had a super-quick turnaround when a client’s vacancy and a candidate’s search just happened to coincide at the perfect time! From our candidate sadly being made redundant on the Monday, to us taking the vacancy on Tuesday afternoon, and then an interview and offer by the Friday morning… all within the same week. […]

Keep your robots and your algorithms…good recruitment should be about people connecting!

Date: 11 July 2018

A lot of recruitment is quite heavily automated these days, which we think is a bit silly. Recruitment is all about PEOPLE so, how is a computer algorithm going to appreciate the transferable skills each candidate has, or their unique career and life journeys that make YOU the person YOU are… At Horizon we get […]
