ABOUT MINT R2R

The Mint R2R Story...

Pete and Frank met in 1999 working for one of the biggest recruitment companies in the UK. They were based in the Manchester office, so didn't necessarily have the same swagger as their London counterparts, but that didn't stop them rocking the fat ties and shiny cufflinks. Pete was on the Permanent Side of the office, and Frank was on the Contract side. They were actively encouraged to dislike each other. Over 20 years later, and after 10 years of working together, they finally started to like each other. It's quite a lovely story.

  • Mint R2R: The Rec2Rec who'll actually listen to what you want, and don’t want..
    Mint Guarantee No1: We’ll actually listen to what you want, and don’t want...

    Sounds like an obvious statement to make, but we know that our competitors sometimes don’t really dig deep enough beneath the surface to work out what is really important to you. And even if they do listen, for some reason, they very quickly discard what they’ve just heard, and carry on as if they haven’t heard a word you’ve said.

  • Mint R2R: The Rec to Rec who’ll always consult with you...
    Mint Guarantee No2: We’ll always consult with you...

    So what we mean here is: Once we’ve listened closely to your “wants” and “don’t wants”, we’ll go away, put our thinking hats on, use our market knowledge, and come back to you and let you know what we believe are some of the best options for you in the marketplace.

  • Mint R2R: This Rec-to-Rec will always get your permission...
    Mint Guarantee No3: We’ll always get your permission...

    Once we’ve got your absolute consent to move forward, we’ll move forward. But we won’t do that until we’ve got the full green light from you. We’ll never lose sight of the fact that this is your career, your job hunt, and you own the process.

  • Mint R2R: We’ll actually talk to our Clients about you, and not just spray your CV around town!
    Mint Guarantee No4: We’ll actually talk to our Clients about you!

    ​We won’t just spray your CV out there and wait to see what happens. We’ll actually pick up the phone and discuss with our Clients everything that you told us about yourself when we met you face to face. After all, there’s only so much “selling” an email can achieve!

  • Mint R2R: We’ll move very fast! (or very slow!) However fast or slow you want your Rec2Rec to operate, we can do!
    Mint Guarantee No5: We’ll move very fast! (or very slow!)

    Even though we’re thorough, we’re incredibly fast. Because we have such strong relationships with our Clients, we can generally get through to whoever we need to instantaneously. Even if it means calling them on holiday. (Just kidding!)

  • Mint R2R: We’ll make sure you go into every interview match fit! No Rec to Rec prepares their Candidates for interview like Mint R2R.
    Mint Guarantee No6: We’ll make sure you go into every interview match fit!

    That first interview is crucial for kick-starting a positive process, and we understand how important it is. We’ll make sure you know everything you need to know, and more!

  • Mint R2R: We'll always be honest with you. You won't get any Rec2Rec BS from us.
    Mint Guarantee No7: We’ll always be honest!

    ​Regrettably, sometimes interviews don’t always go well. It’s our job to make sure you get full feedback, as well as good feedback. That way, you can fix whatever went wrong, and make sure you don’t fall into the same trap.

  • Mint R2R: We’ll communicate every step of the way!
    Mint Guarantee No8: We’ll communicate every step of the way!

    ​We won’t just cut you loose once you’ve got a couple of decent interviews under your belt. We’ll stick by your side, every step of the way, until that job is safely in the bag, and the ink is dry on the contract!

    Mint Guarantee No9: We’ll work really, really, really hard on your behalf!

    ​If we’ve committed to you, and you’ve committed to us, then we will do everything in our power to get a positive result. We will not fall at the first hurdle, and we won’t drop the ball. We are not about “quick wins” at Mint Recruitment. We’re all about getting the right result.
