Corecom Partnerships
What is Corecom Partnerships?
Corecom Partnerships was developed to address and overcome the recurrent issues and frustrations faced by hiring companies in the IT sector. Designed to revolutionise the contracting and hiring process, Corecom Partnerships adopts a collaborative approach to recruitment with the focus firmly on candidate quality and fit. This model sees us partner with you to:
- Conceptualise and deliver a sleek, bespoke and employer brand that reflects your business
- Guarantee a positive candidate journey thanks to our world class recruitment processes
- Ensure ROI through the introduction and retention of the right talent for your organisation
Why develop a new recruitment model?
We knew that the typical recruitment model wasn’t working for the IT sector and we wanted to get down to the root cause of the problem so, in 2020, we commissioned the UK Technology Recruitment Survey. The results were staggering with three quarters (76%) of hiring managers receiving poor quality CVS. Recruitment companies were failing at the very first stage of the recruitment process.
Other problems identified by the survey included:
A speed over quality culture with your recruitment suppliers
Lack of consistency in the employer brand and candidate journey
Duplication of effort and wasted resource due to the traditional multiple agency approach to recruitment
Poor relations between hiring company and recruitment consultancy due to no guarantee of contract / reward
Multiple agency approach equates to broad brush, generic service as opposed to tailored, bespoke campaigns
Tension and conflict about candidate ownership with consultants overlooking candidate needs and wants
The root cause: The traditional multiple agency, contingency engagement model

What we did
We have a long and fruitful relationship with Tunstall, having worked alongside them on recruitment campaigns for 8 years. However, the team needed to recruit twenty hard to fill technology roles in South Yorkshire and asked us to lead on the campaign. The combination of location and specialism had seen Tunstall historically struggle to attract talent and convert potential candidates from offer to hire.
We launched our recruitment campaign by conceptualising and launching a bespoke employer brand solution for Tunstall Healthcare. This incorporated a slick Employer Hub showcasing available roles and a cocktail of exciting digital content including a suite of professionally filmed and edited Meet the Team, Company Intro and Meet the Manager footage, for prospective candidates.
Tunstall were assigned a dedicated delivery team who were tasked with and succeeded in filling over twenty permanent vacancies across Software Development, Business Analysis & Product, Data, Architecture and Testing, in less than four months.
Bespoke recruitment tools tailored to Tunstall’s needs, were utilised with fantastic results to include:
- the delivery of multiple interview effectiveness workshops with Tunstall hiring managers, leading to an uptake in offer to-placement ratio of under 50% to over 90%.
- CV-to-interview ratio improved to 3:2
- Interview-to-offer ratios increased to 2:1, a significant improvement on Tunstall’s prior experience.
What They Said
“Ultimately, what I wanted from this partnership was to be able to take a step back and free me up to focus on my other responsibilities in addition to recruitment. Working with Corecom alone made everything so straight forward. I wasn’t having to chase up several agencies and there was no duplication of candidates. Tunstall was their no.1 focus and I trusted them to deliver, which they did. There was noticeable improvements in CV-to-interview and interview-to-placement ratios which was a real pain point before changing the model one how we worked together.
Working on a retained basis gave me confidence that extra effort and resource would be put into filling the roles. They successfully managed to deliver 15-20 hard-to-fill, technical roles across Software Development and Testing.”
