Key Start /

Start recruiting the easy way.

Why Key Start?

With Key Start, you pay a fixed fee for your recruitment campaign, regardless of how many vacancies you have for the same role.

We’ve put together different packages depending on your individual requirement.

Our Key Start packages provide a cost effective alternative to using a traditional recruitment agency service, where you may be charged a percentage fee of the salary.

In effect, Key Start bridges the gap between managing your recruitment internally and using the services of a recruitment consultancy.

Instead of working on a per hire fee, you pay a fixed fee to make it easier for you to budget for recruitment.

Everything is covered with one flat fee.

  • No additional charges

  • No percentage fees

  • No long term contract

  • No job board costs.

Delivering Results

"We have worked with Key Appointments for a while now and it has always been a pleasure. We currently have the Key Start 1 Package and as a HR Team, this has saved us a lot of time as it allows us to reach a wide range of candidates via a number of recruitment platforms.  

Pippa Wilson, HR Business Partner


"Under the Key Start 3 package, Key Appointments conduct initial telephone interviews, ensuring I would only be interviewing candidates that met our brief, saving hours of valuable time. The whole process was seamless"

Lisa Nicholson, Director


"At The Little Green Frog Nursery we have been working with Key Appointments for over 7 years and they have helped us to recruit many times. We use the Key Start packages - the team design an advert to our spec and advertise it quickly, then we can see the CVs as they arrive. It's so easy to manage!"  

Ruth Johnson, Nursery Owner

Getting Started

Once we have the details of your vacancy, you'll receive a web optimised job advert to approve.

Your vacancy will be advertised on major UK job recruitment sites for 6 weeks to help you reach a wide candidate pool. We use social media to promote your vacancy and maximise exposure.

You’ll be able to view every application in our Applicant Tracking Portal but to save you time we’ll screen CVs and highlight suitable applicants for you.

To save more time, you can outsource initial telephone interviews to us along with the organisation of interviews and managing feedback and rejections.

To target specific skills and experience, you can also utilise our CV databases to take a proactive approach to finding the ideal candidate.
