Transforming Recruitment: David’s Journey with Hiring Made Easy

“Before Hiring Made Easy, I saw recruitment as a bit of a routine HR task—just something to fill roles. But now, after going through the program, I realise it can actually be a game-changer for our organisation. Recruitment is more than finding someone to fill a role; it’s about bringing in people who genuinely fit our culture and will thrive here. This program showed me how to think strategically about every step, from job descriptions to onboarding, and align it all with who we are as a team. 

What does everyone say?

Hiring Made Easy - “Done for you” model

“It was refreshing to see that this course uses clear language and plain English. The way Leanne breaks this down into easy to follow training is well received for someone that was a complete novice. She takes the time to give an insight into the real world of recruitment with experiences shared. I liked the layout and fonts used on the written material. Using the online system was uncomplicated (after an initial technical glitch, which was quickly rectified). Being able to dip in and out of modules around working tasks is another benefit. Even though I was learning with other people, the information is aimed at all businesses, which makes you think about your own company’s values, needs and processes; therefore the course becomes bespoke to you”

Hiring Made Easy “Screening, Interviewing & Offering Candidates” module

“I had the pleasure of working with Leanne and learning an incredible amount of value from the Hiring Made Easy programme. Leanne provided my team with interview training and guidance which has been very well received and proved very successful in helping them recruit new team members. Throughout the training Leanne was able to target the training at the correct level for each individual, took feedback and supported them as they integrated the methods and practices into their own recruitment tasks which has helped massively with recruitment.”

“I worked with Leanne on creating more appealing job specs as the ones I were using weren’t attracting the right types of candidates. We spent time making sure the adverts spoke the language of candidates I wanted to attract. On Monday 13th March I deployed 3 of the new adverts, which went live around 1600. As of Friday 17th March they had 560 applicants. 1 of the adverts had to be taken down midday Friday as it had hit 390 applicants, 121 of which I’m interviewing for this week.”

Hiring Made Easy - “Employer Branding & Social Media”

“On Thursday 25th and Friday 26th January, Holly, Calum and I welcomed Leanne to our Nottingham office to enhance our skills in all things recruitment! One of our goals in 2024 was to expand our knowledge and work with experts in the game to help with our hiring goals, and it’s fair to say Leanne certainly hit the mark. Her training had lots of great visuals, easy to follow guides, and interactive examples for us to try out over the two days. Leanne catered these sessions to our needs and couldn’t have been more helpful! If any of my connections are looking any recruitment related help, I couldn’t recommend her more!”
