“Cohesion were initially appointed on a trial basis and were allocated our “hard to recruit” areas. In a short time they were able to deliver a steady stream of good quality candidates. They took candidates through to telephone interview and organised face to face interviews with our managers and then rapidly progressed Pre-Employment checks, and handed over candidates ready to start work. The results were very impressive. The effort that Cohesion make to keep candidates engaged and move them efficiently through the recruitment process was key to helping us achieve a high attendance rate at interview and very low drop out post interview. I have worked closely with Cohesion throughout the trial and have been impressed with how responsive they have been to any issues raised and their ability to deliver candidates in a difficult recruitment market and as a result we have now extended their work to all our services.”

I would definitely recommend Cohesion as a recruitment partner. Working with them has taken the pain out of the recruitment process – I haven’t had to worry so much about the schedule or where everyone needs to be.

“Today, we have a healthy recruitment pipeline in most locations, our vacant hours are drastically reduced which has a huge impact on agency costs and quality of care. The average time to offer has reduced considerably and more encouraging is the quality of our new colleagues who are recruited for their ‘values’ in most cases, which are at the heart of everything the Trust does. As our partnership with Cohesion strengthens, their knowledge of what we need just keeps on growing and they are now thought of as an extension of the HR team and are referred to as our ‘recruitment team’, rather than ‘the agency that supports us with recruitment.'”

“The results speak volumes regarding the service that Cohesion provide us here at Nutricia. They are an extension of us and really live our values. They never fail to deliver on promise and work hard to deliver a high quality candidate experience and service to us here at Nutricia. We have complete faith that with Cohesion’s unique expertise they will continue to help build a strong talent pipeline for our Nursing Service.”

“Cohesion became a trusted recruitment partner for Turning Point. The sourcing of sound, relevant candidates and the excellent candidate experience they offered really enhanced our employer brand. I was greatly impressed by and appreciative of their proficiency in managing our resourcing needs effectively in a testing marketplace for talent and the warm, enthusiastic manner in which relationships were built and managed effectively at all levels. I would have no hesitation in recommending them as an RPO of choice.”
