What our applicants say about us
I normally receive CV’s as soon as I raise a vacancy, so I am confident that The OPRA Group starts to source candidates as soon as they receive the job specifications.
We have learnt that generally the pre-vetting services means less time wasted on people attending interviews when they aren’t that interested in the position or don’t have the right qualifications.
Due to the Industry we work in, background checks form an essential part of our recruitment process. For a number of years now we have used The OPRA Group to carry out these background screening checks and have always found them to be very thorough and with a quick turnaround. Once the screening process is complete, a full report is then produced and sent to us which provides an audit trail and proof that we are being compliant.
I have found that the applicants OPRA have sent us have been high quality, with all the relative qualifications and experience required to fulfil the role and they have a good understanding of the job requirements before they attend an interview.
Overall, I think that the service we receive is of a top-quality standard, feedback from the candidates who have attended interviews have fed back that their dealings with The OPRA Group have always been very positive as well.
