Frequently Asked Questions

Should you have any other query, don't hesitate to contact us.

Why should I use a recruitment agency to hire staff?

Engaging a recruitment agency gives you access to talent networks you won’t find on job boards.

At Six Degrees Executive, our consultants are specialists in their fields and work closely with candidates every day. We move quickly, reduce time-to-hire, and help you find the right fit—not just on paper, but culturally and commercially.

How do I choose the right recruitment agency?

When choosing a recruitment agency, it's important to consider factors such as industry and functional expertise, client and candidates testimonials and track record of success. You should also consider your connection with the consultants you meet and their ability to quickly understand your business and talent requirements. Additional service offerings, commercial terms, and a commitment to community initiatives such as CSR and diversity and inclusion may also be part of your selection criteria.

At Six Degrees Executive, we’ve built long-standing partnerships because we combine market insight with a high-touch, collaborative approach. We’re not generalists—we’re specialists in the markets we serve.

What are the benefits of using a specialist recruitment agency?

Using a reputable, established specialist recruitment agency like Six Degrees is beneficial for both candidates and employers.

Specialists know the market, the candidates, and the challenges you’re facing—often before you brief us. We act as trusted advisors who will offer insights and provide support throughout the hiring process.

What’s the difference between contingent and retained recruitment?

Contingent recruitment means you only pay a fee once a hire is made. Retained recruitment is a more consultative, structured process—often used for executive or business-critical roles—where we work exclusively with you and commit dedicated resources from start to finish. We offer both models depending on the level and urgency of the role.

What is the process for engaging with Six Degrees Executive?

For a client, the process for engaging with Six Degrees Executive typically involves an initial consultation to discuss your needs and requirements. We will then determine the best search methodology to match an appropriate talent pool with your needs. Depending on the level and complexity of the role, this may include market mapping, confidential search, advertising and utilisation of networks and referrals.

We act as a strategic partner—learning about your business, understanding the role, and managing the end-to-end recruitment process. This would typically include advertising, screening, presentation of candidates, management of the interview process, offer management and on-boarding support.

Six Degrees and our teams will go the extra mile to provide expert advice and guidance throughout the hiring process.
