Recruitment for care agencies, from application to hire

A careers site with your name on it

Every plan includes a branded careers site, on a carerhr.com address or your own domain (for example careers.youragency.co.uk). It carries your logo, colours, photos and wording, and works on a phone, which is where most care applicants apply from.

An application form that asks what care recruitment needs

• Full employment history, so gaps can be explained, as CQC expects for every person employed.
• Employer and character referees, collected as part of the application rather than chased afterwards.
• Your own questions on top: Growth and Scale include a form builder to change and add to the form.

References that chase themselves

Reference requests go to the referees the candidate gave. Each referee gets a link to a short online form, and anyone who hasn't replied is reminded automatically: after 2 days and again after 5 by default, and you can change both. The applications list shows how many references are back for each candidate and which ones are overdue or need checking.

Every applicant, at every stage

Applicants move through New, Shortlist, References, Hired and Rejected. Work from a table or a board, filter and search, and export the list when you need it elsewhere.

From hired to ready to work

Once someone is hired they become an employee with their own record and their own portal, where they complete their onboarding and upload their documents. Their right to work, DBS and other documents then sit in the document tracker, with expiry dates watched from day one.
