Streamlining Recruitment with Bambu’s S.E.E.D.S. Process

At Bambu, we like to keep it simple. That’s why we’ve created the 'S.E.E.D.S.' process. A straightforward way to explain our thorough search methods and ensure clarity at every step.

S - Setting Up for Success

The journey begins with an in-depth collaboration to fully understand your organisation's needs. Together, we create a detailed position brief that outlines the role requirements, desired skills, and key personality traits. We also establish a clear timeline and schedule regular update meetings to ensure alignment throughout the process.

E - Evaluating the Market

The first week is dedicated to rigorous market analysis. Our research goes beyond the surface to identify potential candidates from a wide range of sources. By focusing on direct competitors, adjacent industries, and niche markets, we ensure no stone is left unturned. Using targeted searches, industry networking, and professional platforms, we uncover candidates who may not be actively seeking new roles but possess the ideal skills and expertise for your vacancy.

E - Engaging with Candidates

From Weeks 2 to 4, we actively reach out to potential candidates—often 100 to 150 individuals—to present your opportunity. This phase is more than a numbers game; it’s about creating meaningful connections. Through detailed conversations, we assess each candidate’s experience, motivations, and cultural alignment with your organisation. Only those who meet your criteria and share your values advance in the process.

D - Delivering the Shortlist

By Day 20, we deliver a carefully curated shortlist of 3 to 5 top-tier candidates. Each profile includes a detailed summary of their background, skills, and compensation expectations. Alongside these profiles, we provide valuable insights into the market and a transparent overview of the search process. A follow-up debrief meeting allows us to refine the final selection and address any outstanding questions.

S - Starting Strong

Our commitment doesn’t end with the shortlist. We provide end-to-end support during the interview process, from preparation to debriefing, offer negotiations, and handling counter-offers. Once the ideal candidate is selected, we assist with onboarding to ensure a seamless transition into your organisation.
