How Do We Assess Candidates Before Introducing Them?
Every candidate goes through a structured assessment process before we make an introduction. We look beyond a CV to understand their experience, communication style, motivation and suitability for your business.

- Review of relevant experience and career achievements
- Assessment of communication style, motivation and working preferences
- Right-to-work verification
- Reference checks

Software Skills Testing & Training for Candidates
At Love Success we partner with leading online assessment provider Skillsarena to offer a comprehensive range of industry-recognised skills, aptitudeand psychometric tests.
Used by employers across the UK, these assessments help verify technical ability, benchmark performance and provide objective insight into a candidate's suitability for a role, giving both clients and candidates confidence throughout the recruitment process.
How Does Love Success Find Candidates Other Employers May Miss?
The strongest shortlist rarely comes from one source. We combine advertising with proactive search, referrals, trusted relationships, social networks and a candidate database developed over more than 15 years.
- Established relationships with Office & Business Support professionals across London and the UK
- Proactive LinkedIn and market search
- Candidate and client referrals
- Direct approaches to passive professionals
- Targeted job advertising
- Specialist consultant networks built over many years
- Ongoing conversations with candidates about career goals, working preferences and availability
Why Use a Specialist Recruitment Agency to Hire Staff?
Advertising a vacancy can generate applications, but it does not always reach the right people. A specialist recruitment agency brings market knowledge, an established network and the time to search proactively, particularly valuable when your internal team is already stretched.
Reach candidates who are not actively applying
Many experienced professionals are not searching job boards every day. LinkedIn Talent Solutions has previously estimated that around 70% of the global workforce is passive talent, while a high proportion of both active and passive professionals are open to hearing about the right opportunity. Our consultants can approach these candidates confidentially and discuss what would genuinely motivate them to move. Source
Save management time
Recruitment requires advertising, searching, screening, interviewing, feedback, negotiation and candidate care. We manage the time-consuming stages and present a focused shortlist, allowing hiring managers to spend their time with candidates who have already been assessed.
Understand the market before you hire
Our consultants speak to employers and candidates every day. We can advise on salary expectations, notice periods, hybrid working, benefits, candidate availability and where a brief may need to change to compete effectively.
Reduce hiring risk
We assess experience, motivation, communication style and cultural fit before making an introduction. References, right-to-work checks and additional screening can also be completed where required.
Protect your employer brand
Every conversation with a candidate shapes their view of your business. We represent your opportunity accurately, keep candidates informed and manage feedback professionally, helping you create a positive experience whether or not someone is ultimately appointed.
60%+ Client Retention
Why Have More Than 60% of Our Clients Stayed With Us for Over 10 Years?
Long-term client relationships are not built by filling one vacancy.
They are built by understanding a business well enough to give useful
advice, deliver consistently and be honest when a brief needs to change.
Many clients work with the same Love Success consultants for years.
That continuity means we understand their culture, leadership style,
hiring history and the reasons previous appointments have succeeded.
We can move faster without losing the personal attention that good
recruitment requires.
We do not measure a relationship by the number of CVs sent.
We measure it by the quality of the people appointed, the experience
of the hiring team and candidate, and whether our client would trust
us with their next vacancy.

How much does it cost to use a recruitment agency?
Costs depend on the type of recruitment, seniority of the role and level of service required. Temporary charges usually include the worker's pay, employer costs and the agency margin. Permanent fees are generally based on the successful candidate's salary. We provide clear terms and pricing before work begins.
