How does the application process work?Stage 1: Firstly, we receive the applicants CV and our team evaluates the profile. If the CV looks like it might be a match for one of our positions, we’ll ask the individual for a telephone interview in order to better understand their experience and preferences. ​ Stage 2: If the profile matches one of the job roles, we will invite them for our second stage, which is a Skype video interview with another of our colleagues. The second stage will be fairly similar to the first, just with another one of us, so more of us can get to know the candidate! ​ Stage 3: If the applicant passes to the second stage and we still believe they are a good match for one of our roles, we will format their application and send it to the client. Stage 4: If the client agrees it is a match, they will ask to arrange an interview. Depending on the role, we will offer candidates some interview tips and preparation. Once the applicant has confirmed their attendance, we send them a confirmation email; details such as location, time and name of the client will be included. Candidates: Please do remember that you are not only representing yourself, but also Ideaboxes. ​ Stage 5 The employer may invite you for a follow-up interview or, if all has gone well, the employer may think that you are the perfect person for their vacancy and offer you a contract. ​ Stage 6 You can then accept their offer and prepare to start your new job.

Can you help me get a visa or do you have any jobs that can supply a T2 working visa?Unfortunately we are not qualified to help with visa issues. If you would like to apply for a visa, we recommend speaking directly with an immigration solicitor. Some of the companies we work with can indeed provide a T2 visa and this will always be included in the job listing. Candidates should meet the job requirements in order to be considered.
-
I am holding the tourist visa, can I still apply for a Job in UK?"No. In line with the requirements of the Asylum & Immigration Act 1996, all applicants must be eligible to live and work in the UK. Documented evidence of eligibility will be required from candidates as part of the recruitment process. Please prepare your BRP card or Passport for eligibility check. Your ID copy will only be used to confirm your eligibility to work.

If you have not received a reply and wish to see where you are in the application process, please email us and we will endeavour to respond.
