"John's professional approach in the process and his vast knowledge in international placements was refreshing, rewarding and indeed amazing. I truly think that Built Recruitment is one of the top construction recruitment agencies out there." "John is a very seasoned recruiter and I can recommend him to any company that is looking to match job requirements and employee skills." "John is a hands on manager/consultant with an eye for detail. He will stick doggedly to a task until it is completed. When it comes to giving customer satisfaction he is a perfectionist." Quentin Robinson, BCom, MBA "I have dealt with a few recruiters before, John Clutten is definitely by far the best of the lot, he helped me from start to finish by getting me a job in the UK, really helpful and goes the extra mile! He even booked and paid for everything on my behalf, he makes sure that you are well updated and prepared for all the administration. He even takes your calls after hours and on weekends. Recruiters like these are hard to find and I will definitely recommend him to all out there!"

Do you offer career advice?We offer it only in terms of how we see things as recruiters. We continuously speak to employers and job seekers and know what each are looking for and how they interact with each other. It's all about making a connection between these two parties and we're always in the middle of the conversation. You'll also find on this site blogs and guides on things like CV writing, interview preparation, etc.

Will you charge me if you place me?Absolutely not! The companies that we recruit for pay our fees. We do not charge individual job seekers.
Do you place students and fresh graduates?This is a tricky one and we're inclined to say "No". Our clients pay us to find exceptional people that they normally can't find themselves. A graduate or student is still an unknown entity in the workplace and there's no guarantee that a brilliant student will become an exceptional employee. Furthermore it's really quite easy to find a graduate (just visit the university) and we normally suggest to clients that they do this. Having said that we're always available to offer career advice to young people and share with them what we've picked up in many years of workplace experience.

Can you find me a job overseas?The two considerations here are a work permit and the cost of international relocation. Governments normally only issue work permits to foreigners where skill shortages exist and a hiring company will only assist you in getting a work permit if they can't find someone suitable locally. They will also only pay to relocate you when they have no other choice. You'll increase your chances dramatically if you get your own work permit and do your own relocation. If you get that out of the way we have associates in 6 continents who can help you to find a job on the other side.
Working For YouWe select our clients carefully and never take on more work than we can handle. This allows us space to be thorough and make sure that nothing falls through the cracks.
When the pressure heats up, like on recruitment campaigns with multiple vacancies, we have a very tight network of fellow recruiters and sourcing specialists around the world that we can call on. These associates are also there to help out when we have to search for people in foreign countries.
We have regular clients in South Africa, sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East and work with associate partners in Europe and the USA.
Why Work With Us? We are specialist construction recruiters and we know the industry inside-out. We've worked in the industry and continuously keep up to date with developments in the construction sector.We understand our clients' needs and save them valuable time by only sending through exactly what they need. We've interviewed thousands of construction professionals over the years and know what separates the wheat from the chaff.In a technology- driven world we all have access to the names of the candidates. Companies are seeing that the prize goes to the agency who can penetrate that candidate, deliver them closed and ready to move.Superior engineers seldom respond to job adverts and these are precisely the kind of people we network with and speak to on a regular basis. We can pick up the phone and speak to people who are outside of the normal reach of hiring managers.
Retain Our Services When we work on retainer we think with your company's hat on. This gives us the freedom to be critical and pass on additional information that would not normally be made available.We can't guarantee filling every position (sometimes the right people just aren't out there) but we can guarantee that we'll use every trick in the book to maximize the chances of success.When we work on retainer we agree on a process upfront with clear deliverables giving regular feedback as the assignment progresses. Just what you would expect of normal employees.
