Hammond
Resources was established in 1997 and through our extensive contacts
and high profile in the Professional Office Scottish marketplace we
have built an excellent database of candidates at all levels and in
most sectors. We can recruit the following types of candidates for
legal practices:
* Qualified solicitors
* Newly-qualified solicitors
* Paralegals
* Legal secretaries
* Cash room assistants
* Receptionists
* Various levels within Finance, HR, IT and Office Support.
We recruit permanent, temporary and fixed-term staff.
Our philosophy is straightforward: we aim to build long-term business
relationships with our clients by providing a high-quality recruitment
service. Hammond Resources approach is thorough and ethical. We like
to meet all our clients so we can understand their business culture
and their preferred method of working. Only by doing so can we then
provide our clients with candidates who are a suitable match. Likewise,
we aim to interview face-to-face all local candidates we intend submitting
to a client. We see this as an essential part of the recruitment process.
We do not see our role as being simply a provider of CVs rather, as
a reputable recruitment company, our role is to understand our clients'
and candidates' needs, then to supply only those candidates who meet
the requirements of our clients. By acting professionally and ethically
at all times we help to ensure that our clients' recruitment process
proceeds smoothly and they are able to source high quality staff for
their organisations. We understand the particular demands of firms
operating in a close knit sector and above all we understand the need
for confidentiality at all times in our dealings with our clients
and candidates.
