Trainee Recruitment Academy

Connect Group Consulting works with its strategic partner to identify and develop the best possible new recruitment talent.

The Academy Programme commences during the initial assessment centres and open days.  The process is two way and completely transparent; The Academy team enhances the knowledge of the Trainees with regards to the recruitment industry and Connect Group Consulting’s practices during the recruitment process.  This is achieved through an exchange of information and activities.

This approach is a refreshing alternative to traditional recruitment industry methods; often superficial hiring and hoping, resulting in high attrition rates.

We select and train the best future recruitment talent for our business.  Our successful hires are hand picked through the rigorous, two way assessment processes that identify the elite few who possess the right qualities to be successful in recruitment with us, qualities such as: 

         Drive and Determination
         Charisma
         Street smart
         Evidence of achievement
         Relevant experience
         Sales
         High income needs

Connect Group Consulting’s unique development programme includes a bespoke recruitment training programme to enhance candidates’ successful integration in to our business.  This widely recognised leading programme trains best practice recruitment processes to ensure a solid skills foundation from which to develop.  The Trainees receive seven days of classroom training in their first four months coupled with at desk, telephone coaching and a full Connect Group Consulting induction programme to ensure they become the best recruiter they can. 

Training at Connect Group Consulting doesn’t stop there, we run regular programmes at all levels to develop recruitment skills, account management methods, leadership and management abilities.  We support our high performing staff every step of the way.

So if you think you have what it takes then contact Rachel Green on 020 8973 3333 or email rachel.green@cgc-ltd.co.uk

We want to hear from confident, motivated, intelligent and determined sales people looking for the best possible start to their recruitment career.


Trainee Academy Testimonials:

“The assessment day held by the Academy and Connect Group Consulting was by far the best I have attended. The tasks given gave you a good insight into the job of a Recruitment Consultant and what to expect. The feedback was excellent and helped massively in terms of development.

The initial training course was very informative; I learnt techniques that will help me greatly during my day to day work and also in the future.

The amount of support given by the management team is massive, these people know what they are talking about and I have found already that listening to them really does help!

I feel that I am being developed into a strong Consultant and because of this I am excited about what the future holds for me within the company.”
