Frequently Asked Questions
It's an age-old myth that recruitment agencies charge candidates. Our services to candidates are completely free of charge. We offer CV writing, career advice, interview preparation (and more), and we don't charge you a penny!
Yes, absolutely, and we recommend you do so to ensure you're getting your name out there. What we do ask is that you're honest with both parties. Keep everyone informed of all your job activities, and there should be no issues in doing this.
Juice Personnel is a reputable recruitment agency with over 60 years of combined professional experience among our consultants. Our in-depth market knowledge is second to none, and our links with local businesses cover the whole of West Yorkshire, giving us access to hundreds of available opportunities. We will fully manage your application and can offer advice, guidance, or a friendly chat should you need us to!
No, no and no! We pride ourselves on meeting every single candidate we work with. Any recruiters worth their salt will do the same! It's our professional duty to ensure that we match the right people to the right business, and there is no way we can do this without meeting you first. We also NEVER send your details anywhere without getting your consent first.
We receive hundreds of CVs daily, so it's physically impossible to reply to every candidate. We reach out to as many people as possible, but we state in our adverts that if we haven't contacted you within 48 hours, you can assume your CV wasn't shortlisted. If in doubt - pick up the phone. We're always happy to talk about recruitment.
