Starting your career with Communisis - what to expect from the recruitment process We understand brand interactions – it’s what we do, so we try and make our process of interacting with us as easy as possible and as mutually beneficial as it can be. Read more here.
Whilst our process will vary by role, we always aim to make things as simple, rewarding and painless as possible.
The recruitment process is just as much your chance to get to know us and see whether Communisis as the right place for you, as it is for us to ensure you are the right person for Communisis.
Typically, you will experience some of the steps ion the following pages.
CONVERSATION WITH OUR RECRUITMENT TEAM
Dependant on how you come into consideration for the role, you’ll probably speak with one of our friendly recruitment team. This is a chance for us to tell you more about the role and get across more than an advertisement or job spec can, and for you to bring your CV to life. Hopefully after that, we’ll both be keen and will move forward. Meet that team here.
MEET US - A FIRST FACE TO FACE INTERVIEW (In person or on a screen)
The only way to really get to know us, is to meet us. That might be face to face and a chance to see the office, maybe meet some of the rest of the team. Alternately we might to do that online digitally if that’s easier or suits better. We’ll use this time to really get to know you too and get under the skin of your skills, experience and attitude.
PSYCHOMETRIC ASSESSMENT
On some roles, we will use psychometric assessments to help us ensure either personality fit, or technical capability. We partner with CEB Global and use the SHL range of assessments. Typically, we would use the OPQ personality profile, or Verbal and Numerical reasoning – but this will vary by role and our recruitment team will explain what to expect.
A FINAL INTERVIEW
If we think we need to, we’ll meet again to go over any final checks and balances. Again, this is your chance to really be sure that Communisis is the right place for you – so ask us anything. If there is something you’d like to see or do before you feel able to make a decision, just ask! This stage might include meeting other senior people in the business or maybe even a presentation - but again, your recruitment contact will walk you through everything you need to know, so you can be prepped!
OFFER AND PAPERWORK
Great news! We’d love you to join the team. The Recruitment team will partner up with HR to get the relevant paperwork out to you as soon as possible. Have a read, ask us questions, be sure it all makes sense to you.
Between your new line manager and the HR team, we’ll take you through the new starter processes and begin prepping for the start of your career with Communisis.
BEFORE YOU START
As well as spending time making sure you have what you need to get going, we'll also need to complete some pre-start security vetting. But please don't worry, most of the time its really straight forward, and we are here to walk you through it. We'll just need to you to provide some fairly standard information, such as 'Right to work' in the country where we are going to employ you, proof of ID, proof of address, that sort of thing.
