Why do clients choose to work with us?
Arras People provides a refreshingly different approach
to recruitment, the recruitment consultants at Arras were all project management practitioners
in their past careers - hardened recruitment consultant sales people we're
not! All our rates and agreements are provided upfront leaving you
to decide your next step, without feeling pushed, coerced or hounded!
Please contact us to ask about
our terms.
 What Arras People is good at, is providing you with a shortlist
of screened candidates that fit your project management requirements
- this means you won't receive a mountain of CV's scanned for keywords but thoroughly screened candidates. We do this by;
- Working collaboratively with you to understand
the programme and project objectives within your organisation
and the subsequent role specification you have
- Learn about your organisations project culture
- Understand the structures, processes and tools
you use
- Gather information about your organisations ethos
and culture and the people you attract
- Attracting and maintaining a good selection of
qualified and skilled project management professionals
What
do our candidates think of us?
It's important at Arras People that we have two sets of clients to take care of. We treat people
the way we would want to be treated and we know job hunting can
often be a miserable business - that's why we take the time to chat
to candidates.
By holding regular project management careers clinics we are able to offer
free advice out of the hours of work in areas such as project management skills development.
We keep people informed of their
applications (we acknowledge and respond to every single person!)
and keep in regular contact through our project management newsletter
- Tipoffs.
We don't want to be like other recruitment agencies and luckily our candidates agree:
'Most other recruitment agencies I have dealt with do not
have a firm grasp on what the client is looking for and instead
just churn out the job description word-for-word. The recruitment consultant
had a good idea of the role and was in a position to judge my suitability
for it rather than just acting as a middleman for CVs''The recruitment consultant
is the most informed consultant I have dealt with.'
'I have to admit that my previous experience of
recruitment agencies has been disappointing. This said, your help
and cooperation in providing information promptly and giving helpful
feedback has been outstanding and is greatly appreciated.'

Why choose Arras People - The Project Management Recruitment Specialists?
You may have some questions in your mind about Arras People - or about the recruitment industry in general. To give you total peace of mind about working with us, here are some frequently asked questions:
 Isn’t it more cost effective for us to do our own recruitment?
You may save money on agency fees, but without the vast database of contacts that we have, you’ll spend a considerable amount of time and effort in placing ads. Assuming you’ve chosen the right places to advertise and that this generates the desired response (which it may not) you’ll have to sift through reams of unsuitable applications - and then waste more time in replying to them all.
Arras People can save you the time and effort of going through first and second stage interviews – and if your project gets delayed because of a difficulty in recruiting the right people, it will have been a false economy not to use Arras People. We are told by clients that our pricing reflects true value for money.
Why should I use Arras People if I’ve never heard of you and you’re not on our PSL?
The purpose of a preferred supplier list is to guarantee quality, service and value. By delivering consistently on all of these, we have been added to PSLs supposedly closed to new companies. Our clients include many well known organisations who appreciate our higher levels of service and by giving us their business, they are helping us to compete with larger recruitment agencies.
Why should I use Arras People if you don’t specialise in my area of the UK?
Being internet-based we cover any area in the UK, across a broad range of industries, for permanent, contract and temporary staff at all levels from PM Directors to project admin staff. Our area of specialisation lies in proramme management and project management only. The team at Arras People all have a PM background guaranteed to provide you with a high level of expertise in our specialised field. We are not sales people driven by commission.
What other services does Arras People provide?
To guarantee that we provide you with the right candidates, we add value by providing you with expert Project Management consultancy, detailed job descriptions, recruitment plans, targetted marketing to project management staff and well briefed and suitable candidates
Why do we need to have a recruitment plan?
We are often under pressure to rush through CVs, only to find out that no interview dates have been planned, or the hiring manager is not around - which may affect the availability of candidates for you - good people will always get job offers and we want to make sure it's your offer they accept. To aid your professionalism and efficiency, one of Arras People’s expert consultants helps you to create a recruitment plan.
What do you do for candidates that other agencies don’t?
Today’s candidate is tomorrow’s employer. We guarantee to provide regular feedback on interviews, recommend only appropriate roles, always provide a detailed job spec, promise to pay fair rates which are paid on time. We provide careers advice, manage salary expectations, and guarantee the same level of service to candidates as to employers.
