Practical assessment on the line with the employer. In Johannesburg, Manila or a partner centre, before anyone travels. You get the score sheet.

How the test is run

2. The paperwork

Certificate of Sponsorship, visa application, right to work checks, with you at every step. No licence yet? We walk you through the application.

3. The landing

Flights, accommodation, NI number, bank account and phone sorted, and someone checking in with them after they start, so they stay.

4. The fee

A fixed fee per placement, invoiced when they start. No retainer, no startup fee, and nothing is ever charged to the candidate.
