Q: How are locums screened – what qualifications do they have?

A: Our recruitment process involves all locums being thoroughly screened before being registered. We always obtain two professional references and get proof of ID/residence plus a copy of a practising certificate before arranging an assignment for a locum. Sometimes we do introduce locums who are available at short notice and then try and get the above documents over as quickly as possible. The skills sets of our locums vary so please let us know if you require any specific qualifications or accreditations and we’ll make sure that we find a locum who matches your requirements.

Long term locum placement

Can I say that I have enjoyed working with Interim Lawyers and Ten Percent Legal over the last couple of years, your no nonsense, keep it simple approach is such a refreshing change from other agencies I have used.

No Nonsense Recruitment

I have recommended you and said you were the agent to approach. I hope that was the correct procedure. Somebody has to say how valued you are by small firms.

Recommendation

Thank you for your assistance and I will use you again when the need arises, I find you a very efficient and friendly company.

For locums we use Jonathan Fagan at Interim Lawyers. He’s a nice, helpful guy and his fees aren’t too bad (for an agent!)

I was a bit apprehensive at first when you initially emailed me as I thought this would be another generic email and I have unfortunately previously had some poor experiences with recruiters. That is not to say that all recruiters out there are the same but I can honestly say WITHOUT A DOUBT you have been the most pleasant recruiter I have dealt with; very efficient and found me the ideal role very quickly. This is testament to your capabilities and I am deeply grateful for this opportunity. Thank you so much once again for your efforts Emma.
