Testimonials
Don't just take our word for it. This is what our clients say...
Since tasking Nexo with our dynamic recruitment needs we've found them to be diligent, helpful and professional. Being a specialist construction contractor it's important potential candidates are thoroughly vetted and skillsets qualified before each is put forward. Nexo have been fantastic in doing this and subsequently we've onboarded numerous employees via them. Greatest testament is those who arrive with us often praise the communication and attention to detail Nexo provided throughout their recruitment journey
Tom D
We have used Mike and the team at Nexo for over 5 years now placing over 15 permanent staff for us from trainees through to senior level positions and we couldn't be happier with the service from Nexo.
Jamie T
Mike was professional, friendly and communicated quickly and efficiently. I strongly suspect that I will remain in this current job for the foreseeable future however I will be recommending Nexo to anyone searching for employment.

Nexo Recruitment News

In today’s job market, artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT are empowering candidates to submit polished CVs and convincing cover letters at the click of a button. While this can streamline the application process for job seekers, it presents a new challenge for employers: an influx of generic, overly-optimised applications that may look great on paper but lack the substance or experience required for the role.
That’s where the real value of a specialist recruitment agency comes into play.
The Challenge of AI-Enhanced Applications
AI can help candidates craft more appealing applications, but it can also mask gaps in experience, overstate competencies, or create applications that are too good to be true. For busy employers, sifting through a high volume of nearly identical submissions can be time-consuming, frustrating, and ultimately risky.
Without expert vetting, you risk shortlisting candidates who don’t meet your standards—or worse, making a hire that doesn’t work out.

The last few years have seen huge challenges for companies. The stress of COVID and The Great Resignation, followed by the cost of living crisis coupled with low unemployment. This has made recruiting and retaining staff a real challenge, especially for companies in Hampshire, Berkshire and Surrey.
The 2021 REC survey was commissioned to understand and measure the economic and social impact of the UK recruitment industry.
In the survey businesses said that the quality of their staff and recruitment is the second most important driver of their success behind only the quality of their end product. Hiring the right staff is more important than management expertise, proprietary research or investment in new machinery.
The report highlights a trend towards more flexible working. This approach benefits companies where the vacancies are matched to candidates who seek out and flourish by working more flexibly.
The report also found that, for individuals, there is a strong correlation between finding a good job match, job satisfaction and overall life satisfaction.
Bringing in recruitment experts will make a significant difference to your business, with the REC report's analysis showing that the improved quality of matching companies and applicants increases UK productivity by an estimated £7.7 billion a year.Working with a specialist recruitment agency will save you time, money and stress, both in the short and long term. At Nexo Recruitment we take the time to understand your
company and your culture so that you only interview candidates who are a good
fit for your company.
