Our approach to the recruitment process is flexible, adaptable and entirely tailored to the needs of your business. We provide expert advice and consider when you would like to recruit, what type of graduate you are looking for, role duration, how you would like to shape the assessment process and your involvement.
We work hard to understand your business culture and operating dynamics so we can ensure we put forward candidates that will provide a good cultural fit. Personality and mind-set have equal value to technical skills and expertise. We can find you the right candidate with the suitable attributes and values you’re looking for.
We offer marketing and PR opportunities (testimonials, website case studies, industry feature articles and CCR graduate features.) to raise your business profile and awareness within the Cardiff Capital Region.
Our scheme has the full support of our Economic and Regional Development teams within the 10 local authorities and key business support organisations (Business Wales, SW Chamber of Commerce, FSB, CCR Skills Partnership) which means we can maximise the support we provide to you and secure additional coverage for your opportunities.
We are officially partnered with the four universities in the Cardiff Capital Region (The University of South Wales / Cardiff Metropolitan University / Cardiff University / The Open University in Wales) who support and champion the scheme and give us unrivalled access to their high-calibre graduates.
Personal and professional development isn’t just for graduates. We work with Global Welsh to partner growing and aspiring businesses with experienced mentors around the world who want to provide their expertise and advice to help businesses grow/ succeed. We will make this “MyMentor” facility available FREE for 12 months to all businesses who appoint a graduate.
