Recruitment  Process

How it works

The recruitment process is a systematic approach to identifying, attracting, and selecting qualified candidates to fill job vacancies within our organisation. Here is a guide to the key steps involved in the recruitment process:

Submit Your Application

You can apply for roles through our dedicated Careers site, and other designated careers websites.

When you click the “Apply Now” button, you’ll be redirected to our jobs portal, where you’ll upload your CV and any relevant supporting documents (such as a cover letter or certificates). You’ll also review and accept our privacy policy before continuing.

You can choose to complete your application right away or save it and return later at a time that suits you.

After you continue with your application, you’ll be directed to a short diversity monitoring page. Once you’ve completed this step, you can submit your application.

Within 10 minutes of submitting your application, you’ll receive an acknowledgment email confirming we’ve received it. If you don’t see it in your inbox, please check your spam or junk folders.

If you decide not to proceed with your application, simply email us at recruitment@salutemsharedservices.co.uk, and we’ll remove your details from our system. 

Interview Invitation (Successful Candidates)

If your application is successful, you’ll receive an email inviting you to select from the available interview slots. In some cases, your Hiring Manager may also give you a courtesy call to share helpful details about the interview day such as parking arrangements and the name of your interviewer.

Once your interview is confirmed, you’ll receive a follow-up email with the interview address and a reminder to bring along relevant ID documentation for verification.

Interview

Our interview process is designed to be flexible and inclusive, ensuring a positive experience for every candidate. We believe it’s important for you to see the environment you’ll be working in, so interviews are generally conducted face-to-face.

However, depending on the role, your interview may take place online.

We follow a person-centred recruitment approach, which means you may have the opportunity to meet some of the individuals we support during the process. This helps ensure that our values and commitment to delivering exceptional care are reflected throughout your experience.
