Traditional resourcing methods can be frustrating and paper qualifications can often mislead. Simply matching words on CVs without understanding technical and cultural environments can result in countless man-hours spent reading CVs and interviewing unsuitable candidates.

Because technical demarcations continually change, matching skills with roles and not with job titles is paramount.

COAL IT’s TRACTOR programme (Tailored Resource And Client Technologies On Request) is the cornerstone on which our client’s technical vetting and training solutions are built.

Theoretical and practical tests are created in collaboration with our clients and administered utilising our City based lab facility. A COAL IT Technologist will visit your site and in conjunction with your in-house teams create a series of technical challenges that are administered in our lab to benchmark the candidate’s expertise against real world scenarios. This means when it comes to interview stage, technical capability is already assured, you simply need to choose the individual that best fits your working environment.

We can also ensure BS7858 security vetting and ISO9001:2000 compliance, aligned to our ITIL compliant service desk, is maintained by adhering to your pre-defined standards and HR procedures.

The benefits to our customers can be clearly measured by cost savings in terms of time spent evaluating unsuitable candidates as well as the ongoing training and development of your staff, regardless of whether they are permanent employees or contractors.

We understand technology is constantly evolving, therefore your bespoke TRACTOR programme is regularly reviewed and updated in order to ensure you continue to benefit from a hassle free resourcing service and also to drive training sessions and technical clinics that can be delivered at our city based logistics centre.
