What Charle had to say
To date Candi have supported us to make several contract hires as well as a key permanent hire.
Charle was founded In 2018, the business has been growing steadily over the last 18 months and at key stages I have required designers, marketers and content professionals to support a range ecommerce projects.
Candi has provided an efficient recruitment process for my contractors who are exceptional within their fields. Candi understood Charles hiring needs and ethos, they knew that as a successful start-up every hire was key, as the new team members would need to keep up with a fast-moving dynamic agency environment.
The permanent hire was for a “New Business Manager” and a key position for Charles next stage of growth, this hire had to be right!
Candi offered advise with regards to the structure of campaign and reassured us that we had best practise for the interview process.
With their support the process of hiring was efficient and well managed, the talent portal that they created was personalised to us and held all essential information regarding each candidate.
The shortlisting was a one click process, the feedback was easy to present and the offer and onboarding was straight forward for all parties. I highly recommend Candi for any digital freelance or permanent hires.
