We’ve talked before about How an Apprentice Could Benefit Your Business , but now we will cover Hiring An Apprentice with the B2W Group. 

78% of employers that hired an apprentice say that productivity improved and 74% reported that apprenticeships improved the quality of their product or service (source: www.gov.uk).

The B2W Group makes the process of hiring an apprentice as smooth as possible, with a free recruitment process which we handle from start to finish.

Our process is tried and tested and has helped us to find suitable placements for employers that have undoubtedly resulted in loyal employees that bring lots of value to the business

How does our process work? We will begin with an initial call to understand your requirements and organise everything right up to the interviews which are all done remotely.

Initial Call

We will set up a call for you to speak with one of our Business Advisors who will provide you with further information and will complete a fact find to gain a better understanding of your personal requirements. This will give you the opportunity to express your needs and expectations of your new apprentice.

Advertising the Role

Once we have a great understanding of the type of candidate you are searching for, we will advertise the job description and person specification online using various job boards, social media platforms and the National Apprenticeship Service. 

The Candidates

We will review applications and filter the candidates by screening and vetting them to ensure they are the right fit for your role. This will initially be done over the telephone where we will ask them qualifying questions and ensure that they meet the minimum requirements and criteria before inviting them in for a registration day.

Employer Submission

The B2W Group will submit the final CVs of any suitable candidates for the employer to decide whether they would like to interview the candidate. If the employer is happy to move forward with the candidates, we will arrange the interviews and ensure all candidates are confirmed.

Interview

We will send a range of relevant candidates for the employer to interview and ensure that we prep all candidates prior to them attending the interview. This includes interview techniques, knowledge of the role and ensuring they complete their own research.

Once the interview stage is completed, we will provide and give any feedback as to whether they are successful or unsuccessful. If they are successful, we will send them an offer letter, confirm the start date for their new role and book in a date to get them signed on to the qualification.

Once the candidate is placed, we will continue to support the apprentice and employer throughout the apprenticeship. They will receive visits from their Skills Coach and classroom training sessions to improve their skills and knowledge.
