The count is not spectacular and does not need to be: it shows an employer that uses the permit route as one normal channel among several, year after year.
How to approach them
Time it to the rhythm
This year Link Healthcare Limited's permits peaked in August. Hiring rounds tend to repeat, so an application a couple of months ahead of that lands when the decision is being made.
