Why recruitment in Wimbledon?

Wimbledon is of course most well-known for tennis, however there is much more to the area. One of the many selling points of Wimbledon is the vast amount of green space. It can be easy to forget you are in the UK’s capital and one of the world’s busiest cities. Both the areas surrounding and within Wimbledon encompass rent prices that are affordable and manageable for graduates just starting their career. Having a tube and train station and being situated on the district line means transport is very convenient with Earl’s Court 17 minutes away and Waterloo only 16 minutes. A big plus for most of our employees is the commute! Going against the traffic means that you’ll often have multiple seats available. For those worrying about late night transport convenience there are two night buses that run back and forth to the city centre throughout the night!

Maybe being out of the main hustle and bustle of the city has rubbed off on our leadership team too. Graduates interviewing with us often mention how much more chilled out we are compared to our competitors. You’ll also be encouraged to leave on time two nights a week – so no more excuses for missing footie or netball practice!

What we look for in our graduate recruitment consultants

Recruitment is an exceptionally rewarding career both in terms of career progression and money incentives. Therefore we are in search of exceptional talent to grow our team and indulge in all of the benefits our current recruitment consultants receive. To compete with the best, we look for drive, enthusiasm, resilience and strong motivations as we believe these are the key skills to becoming a successful recruitment consultant.
