Looking to recruit your next high flyer?

Whether you want permanent or contract people, we’ll be your go-to partner, not just another recruitment agency. We’ll save you time, stress and money by finding you the right people not just for your vacancies, but also your company culture. We like to think outside the box, and by doing so, we’ll talk you through any hesitations on candidates we send. A lot of agencies pitch their candidates as if they’re perfect in every way, when the reality is they’ll have different skills and experiences perhaps you haven’t considered, but that could potentially really work for you. We lead with honesty, rather than a sales pitch and that’s what our existing clients like about us.

Getting to know all about your business

The personality of your business is one we’d like to get to know. It’s just as important, if not more so, than the vacancy you’re recruiting for. So we’d like to come and meet you to get a real feel for your company culture, the role and explore exactly the type of person you’re looking for. We think this is the only way to ensure the candidates we send you are the ones you’ll want to employ and who will fit into your business. We create a partnership and become the recruitment agency in Bournemouth that you can rely on, not just for your recruitment needs, but anything HR related.

How we find the right candidates for you

It all starts with us listening and understanding. We want to know everything about your ideal person, so don’t leave anything out. It helps us build a picture so we can send people who perfectly fit the profile in addition to putting out a great advert! Everyone who knocks on your door will have been thoroughly interviewed by us to ensure they’re a good fit for your role and business. Throughout, we’ll advise and give clear, honest feedback to both you and the candidate. And we’ll make the whole process stress-free and as easy as possible.

Testimonials

We have worked with Dovetail on a recent recruitment drive. We successfully appointed two excellent sales candidates who have proved to be a great fit for our organisation. As a fast growing business, it is great to be able to work with an agency who really understands our business and culture.

Director

I’ve worked with Dovetail for the last few years.. They really take the time to understand our business, and the qualities I’m looking for in a candidate.They take the time to match these criteria; so I know I can rely on them to give me several really strong contenders for a role. They just know who’s going to be a great fit for us. Plus, they’re all a real pleasure to work with.

I am very happy to give Dovetail Recruitment a full 5 star review. I have used them over the past few years to recruit for my team.They pre-screen candidates and I can be confident the CVs they pass over to me are relevant… Many of their candidates have been successful in the recruitment process and have gone on to become key contributors in the business.

~ Liz
Head of UK (FMCG)

I worked closely with the agency for 12 months and found them to be resilient and self reflective throughout a challenging recruitment drive, always taking on board feedback to improve our ways of working together. I would recommend working with Dovetail as they give a great service and they do an excellent job when representing a brand to candidates.
