To deliver a quality service, we need to attain a certain quality of relationship with you...and you with us. A relationship founded on mutual trust and respect from start to finish. So here, in black and white, is what you can expect from us...and what we, in return, expect from you.

Our Commitment to You.

We will act as your HR recruitment consultants and provide professional, confidential advice and guidance on your HR career path and choices.

We will always aim to use our in depth knowledge and experience of the HR sector to fulfill your career aspirations.

We will utilise our extensive network of relationships both with the UK’s leading companies and with our smaller, more specialised clients, to help ensure you achieve your career goals.

We will take a consultative approach throughout, taking time to listen to you and understand your motivations and personal situation.

We will provide practical help and suggestions to develop your interview skills and Assessment Centre performance.

We will always represent you in a fair and professional manner.

Our Expectations of You.

We ask that you be open, honest and frank in all your dealings with us - in the answers you give, in discussion, feedback and general comment - in order that we may better serve your interests and offer you the best possible advice and guidance.

We ask that you prepare yourself as much as possible for the recruitment process. This includes such things as updating your CV, being punctual, dressing appropriately and preparing yourself fully for interviews – which can all help achieve a positive outcome.

We ask that, as a McCarthyHR candidate, you understand that you are a representative of our brand and that you are respectful of the partnerships that we have established with our clients.

We ask that you openly discuss with your dedicated consultant if you no longer want to go through the recruitment process with one of our clients. We have great relationships with our clients and it is important to us that they are maintained, and our relationship with you is a critical part of this.

Careers Advice Centre.

You can always rely on your McCarthyHR consultant to give you good advice and practical help when it comes to putting your best foot forward at every stage of the recruitment process. It’s all part of the consultative approach we provide - and so too is Careers Advice Centre.

It contains a wealth of information about every aspect of the recruitment process, from how to update your CV and what to expect from an Assessment Centre, to how best to move your career forward.

Each section of the Careers Advice Centre has been prepared by our experienced consultants to help you gain a deeper insight into what your potential new employer is looking for in an ideal candidate - and to help you prepare to make the very best impression at every stage of the recruitment process.

Spending just a few minutes reading through could make all the difference to your career direction, choices and success - and making the difference is what McCarthyHR is all about.

Whilst looking through the sections below will certainly help you to get ready to make a start on looking for a new role, the best way to begin is by picking up the phone to a McCarthyHR consultant. We’ll explain how the McCarthy process works, and what you can expect from our service. In addition, we’ll give you some initial consultative guidance on how buoyant the market is in the sector you’re looking at, as well as what types of roles best fit your current experience.

McCarthyHR is all about the personal touch, and there is no better first step then having an in depth one to one chat that will really help start your career search. Call our Head Office on 0161 828 8726, where we’ll put you in touch with a member of the HR team.
