FAQs: Employers
Is registration Free?
Yes - and you are encouraged to explore the website, search for CVs and read as many of them as you like. You can even post job ads free of charge 24/7.

What's the catch?
There isn't one! Our aim is to give employers free and easy access to quality CVs. You don't pay a penny until you find CVs you really like and want to pursue.

Are job ads really free?
Advertising your position through us incurs no charge - you get to see all the CVs submitted in response, but then only need to pay for the contact details of the CVs you wish to pursue. You lose absolutely nothing by trying this approach and you could find your ideal candidates for several roles for as little as £250, (one month of unlimited usage).

How do I search through your database of CVs - won't it take loads of time?
You will be asked a short series of questions about the kind of person you're looking for - skills, work experience and so on - and our system sifts through our database for you, so that only candidates matching the criteria you set are presented to you. You can then modify your search if you want to - to narrow the results further, or to broaden them by relaxing a 'nice to have' requirement. You will get to the particular CVs you want in just a couple of minutes. You will find it all much easier than sifting through a bunch of CVs arriving in the mail.

Can I print out my favourite CVs to show others in my team?
No problem - CVs can be printed out either before you've purchased them, so without contact details, or after you've bought them, with full contact details. And the CVs are all in a single, consistent format, making them easy to compare with each other.

How do I know my chosen candidates will be interested?
When you basket your CVs and 'check out', each candidate you've chosen gets an email from us asking them to confirm that they are interested in the position you are trying to fill. The moment they confirm their interest we release their contact details to you, so you can contact them directly and get on with your normal interviewing process. It's very fast - you could be talking to your ideal candidates within hours of a vacancy occurring.

How do I buy CVs?
We sell one month's worth of unlimited 'credits' for £250 or £500 for 12 months unlimited* use. Your account will open with 20 'credits, (1 bought CV = 1 credit used) but we will add further credits free to your account during your period of usage, on request. A stock of credits makes recruiting quick and easy when returning in a hurry to find a CV to fill that important vacancy.
*Terms and conditions apply.

What happens If I basket and pay for a CV and the candidate isn't interested?
Your credit is returned to your account for future use - but we will happily provide you with further credits at no extra charge during the period of usage you have paid for.

Do you interview candidates and check their references and qualifications?
No - doing that is very time consuming and, though agencies charge large fees for such a service, it is not always reliable. Our market research shows that employers would rather find quality CVs at an affordable rate and pursue the candidate directly, so that is our focus - a pick and pay service for quality CVs at a very reasonable price, fast.
