How we work

We are proud to be members of the REC – the Recruitment and Employment Confederation, and as such follow the best practises laid down by them for the Recruitment Industry.

Unfortunately we cannot disclose precise details of our vacancies until you have registered with us.

When you register with Polytec by submitting your CV or resume to us, you will be assigned a dedicated consultant. Whether you are seeking a permanent career opportunity, or a temporary role, you can be sure that your consultant will be seeking out the most suitable position for you.

In doing so:

1. We will not submit your CV to any company without first discussing the position with you.

2. We will not alter your CV (apart from correcting typo’s) without discussing with you our reasons.

3. Occasionally we may refuse to submit your CV to a company. Clients use agencies to save time by filtering the applications they receive, if we feel that your application will not be welcomed, we will be honest and tell you why.

Once we have submitted your CV for a position, we will keep you up-to-date throughout the interview process. Because of our close working relationships with our clients, we are able to provide you with a level of insight and background otherwise unobtainable. With this information you will be well prepared prior to your interview.

Established in Cambridge in 1984, Polytec’s reputation means that many of our advertised positions are exclusive to us. You will not find them advertised elsewhere.
