On the 19th January 2015 The Times featured an article about Milton Keynes “4 roundabouts per square mile, 20 million trees and one of the largest shopping malls in the world. The Enigma Code was cracked there, it has 17 ponds containing the rare great crested newt and 6 famous concrete cows in its centre” ….but that’s not all….Milton Keynes is famous for something else this week! One of the highest spurts in recruitment in the country!

Now that’s something to celebrate – that recruitment is on the up – a significant and very welcomed change in our marketplace!

With our B2P office based in Milton Keynes we’re delighted to hear the news and have seen an increase in our clients contacting us for support with their recruitment projects, working together we can ensure their recruitment practices are such that they can attract and retain the right people needed to support their planned and future business growth. 

It is estimated that the average cost of making a poor recruitment decision is between £9,000 and £15,000 – that’s a lot of 000’s!  Not to mention reduced productivity costs and losing good will from the team left behind trying to cover the gap…

At B2P we’re committed to helping our customers make the rights decisions – first time, every time by offering support with the full recruitment cycle from:-  

  • Job Descriptions
  • Job Adverts and Campaigns – designed to target your specific audience
  • CV Review, short-listing and screening candidates

  • Competency based interviews (these can be tailored to your own in-house competencies)
  • Introducing ability tests, case studies, role plays and psychometrics to measure skills, behaviours and experience against your job needs
