Will you take my 7 question survey?

The title says it all really.

I am hoping to begin a business by July and I was hoping to do a little research before then.

Here it is:

I would mention that this is only for companies with current employees or intend to take on employees in the future. Doesn't apply to me.

done also

I should add that my idea is to save small and medium sized organisations time when recruiting. The owners already have a lot of time constraints so I thought it might be a good service to offer.

 

[Tabbie]

This is a service we offer as a recruitment agency and is not something many companies have chosen to use. WE were doing this at a very minimal fee but no takers

 

[Mister B]

All done. FWIW unless the whole recruitment process was being contracted out, I'm not sure if you would get many takers.

All the businesses I have been involved with have avoided the overheads of employees and used self employed people which we develop a relationship with. I always check references and ideally a sample of their work.

I wouldn't outsource referencing because few people will diss someone outright, but a discussion may result in something coming out to influence your decision...

Am I making sense this morning

ps Survey done!

All done, only takes a minute

 

[KateCB]

Done

FWIW we wouldn't use this service - I put in the survey that due to current legislation no employer can give a 'bad' reference -(read 'honest') so they are worthless....we rarely ask for references, but prefer to judge at interview and our 1/2 day 'this is what we do - watch/learn/listen' - we find that we can tell more about people from their interaction with us/staff and how they handle situations that arise!

 

[JackieC]

Done. Although I always lay little importance to references - the competencies the applicant can bring to the Company are far more important to me.

 

[Burdett]

I have fully researched this idea and there aren't any legal issues with it. You could be mistaken or I could. If you are thinking of the Data Protection Act then I have already written to the Information Commissioner who said there is no law against it. I can provide you with the exact letter if you like.

Done, nice to see someone doing proper research, partic at this time.
Would be added value if it incorporated a police check.

Thanks for everyones help. If you have yet to take part I would appreciate you doing so.
