Client Testimonials

Matthew Baxter
Resourcing Business Partner
“We engaged BuildMyTalent to fill 5 engineering roles in Scotland, an area where we’ve historically faced challenges in sourcing quality candidates.
Previously, we had little success using well-known platforms. However, BuildMyTalent provided us with 43 screened candidates. We interviewed 5 of these candidates and successfully hired 1. The diversity of BuildMyTalent’s database was evident in the hire we made.
Throughout the campaign, BuildMyTalent maintained close communication with us and collected candidate feedback. This included a mid-campaign meeting and a closing meeting, during which they presented a detailed candidate report.
The comprehensive report offered valuable insights such as the sources of candidates, job ad views, and clicks, along with the percentage of screened candidates who progressed. Given the success we’ve experienced with BuildMyTalent team, we have decided to continue with this partnership providing more of our vacancies across the UK.”

Jay Morris
Talent Acquisition Coordinator
“BuildMyTalent’s platform was really easy and intuitive to use. I was able to create 5 roles onto the platform without any previous experience. The rating system allowed us to share our feedback about the candidates throughout the campaign, allowing BuildMyTalent to improve their screening of the candidates that came in. At the end of the campaign they provided a detailed report about the 5 roles which has been useful for our own data.”
