The recruitment world has realised a hidden potential (profit) in the recruitment of Veterinary staff.
I had the unfortunate meeting with one such company, claiming to be the "new" revolution to Veterinary recruitment, masses of support and "real" veterinary pre-selection.
Beware, this company is no-more than a get-rich-quick scheme by the managers - who want to drive off into the sunset in their BD9s in 2 years (and don't care about how they get there - as the MD told me).
They advertise pre-selection by vets and veterinary trained staff - but in reality - they are no more than a small company of ordinary recruiters, who are having training from a vet - so that they know a few "buzz words". Admittedly they have used a vet to pre-select some of their CVs (although this is only one vet, and because they are a new company with no experience of veterinary recruitment).
As for the masses of support they say they have - there is none.
It is unfortunate that anyone can now set up in a grubby serviced office and proclaim themselves to be the "best" in whatever they are trying to sell. The reality is - unless you check them out fully - you may be better off doing it yourself...or at least working with a company that is not trying to con its way into winnning 70% of the market share.
