How will I be kept informed of suitable
job opportunities?
When you register with Anderson Knight, your
consultant will spend time establishing your
key priorities and the type of permanent or
temporary role you're looking for. They will
discuss suitable open vacancies with you at
this time and thereafter call or e-mail you
(according to your preference ) with additional
opportunities.
We'll explore every avenue available to us to
find you a suitable position within your timescales.
As we'll be working actively on your behalf,
it's important that you stay in regular contact
to inform us if your circumstances, availability
or priorities have changed.
Can I register with more than one Anderson

We're happy to network from office to office
of our recruitment agency on your behalf. This
will reduce the time you have to spend travelling
back and forth to different offices, which also
means you'll always have the same consultant
working on your behalf. You'll need to inform
your consultant of the different areas you would
like to work in, so that they can keep in regular
contact with the relevant offices.
If you're looking to relocate to a different
area we can transfer all your information, including
all payroll details to the nearest office.
What happens when I go for an interview?
Once we've arranged an interview with a company
for you to attend, we'll usually ask you to
come into our offices so that we can help you
prepare for the interview. We'll provide you
with as much information as possible about the
job and the company. You can also refer to our
Interview Tips.
Following an interview, call your consultant
to let them know how you got on. We'll then
speak to the company to gather their feedback.
This information will help us to either modify
and continue our search for work for you or
to secure the role on your behalf.
