Our process and philosophy
At Lee & Nightingale we believe that the right employee for a given role isn’t just somebody who can do the job. Rather, we strive to find that special person who can do the job and fit perfectly into your organisation. Placing somebody with you whose ideas, aims or even personality are at odds with your company’s culture is not an option for us, and that’s why we leave no stone unturned to fully understand your business now and in the future.
Achieving all this is a rolling process. The factors affecting your business are changing all the time, and that means your HR and Corporate strategy should be constantly changing too. In terms of recruitment, we can help you formulate these strategies, agreeing their aims and the budget needed to achieve them, before delivering customised solutions to make it all happen. Then we’ll constantly evaluate and monitor the work we’ve done for you, adjusting, re-planning and, eventually, going right back to stage one when your situation inevitably changes again.
Philosophy
The purpose of recruitment is to provide your organisation with the skills it requires, in the form of people who fit your culture and are eager to perform. However, the culture and skills requirements of your organisation do not remain the same. They evolve, and part of that evolution is driven by the last round of recruitment you performed. All of this means that what we did last time, may not automatically work for you this time. And we never make the assumption it will.
Before this strikes the fear of endless rounds of pointless meetings into you, let us assure you that we don’t want to go round in circles. We just want to make sure that we complete a feedback loop that twists back on its self like the Mobius strip in our process model. A clever little half twist turns a simple circle of paper into a whole new single-sided object with mind bending properties. Try and cut a Mobuis strip all the way round in parallel between the edges, and you may expect it to fall into two bits. But it does not; it just forms a larger loop. This is the same as our process. Running along side your development, it is both sides of the same thing and they only work together.
