A CV can tell you where someone has been. A good conversation can show you where they could go next.
When someone doesn’t have experience in the exact role you’re recruiting for, it can be easy to focus on the gap.
Piotr took a different approach. He looked at the experience and skills already there, what could transfer into the role and what could be developed with the right training and support.
We know the impact that had because the candidate took the time to tell us:
“When I explained that I had not previously worked in this exact type of role, I really appreciated that you recognised the experience and skills I could bring to the role, rather than simply focusing on what I had not done before.
I found your approach extremely professional and welcoming, and I hope you continue giving candidates that same confidence and opportunity. It made a genuine difference to my experience of the recruitment process.”
Sometimes, giving someone confidence starts with seeing what they can bring, not just what they haven’t done yet.
Fantastic feedback for Piotr. 👏
