Helping you to hit the ground running: our commitment to you

22 September 2016

As a Researcher or Consultant, it’s Hydrogen’s day one mission to guide you through understanding the recruitment lifecycle. We know that recruitment can seem a daunting industry at the beginning. That’s why we’ve developed our ‘Ignite’ programme, a four-week training course designed to make sure you’ve got everything you need to excel in your role.


You’ll learn about our client markets and our candidates, helping you to build effective networks and relationships within this fast paced, competitive industry. You’ll also hear from some of our highest and most experienced performers in the business so you can learn from the best. We teach you all about the basic sales process, how to manage the candidate process, how to sell a job, handle objections and much more.


​Expanding upon these sessions, you’ll be set a series of activities to put what you’ve learned into practice, culminating in four presentations. These will be presented to your peers on the starter training programme. You’ll be provided with constructive feedback and development tips throughout.


​This will prepare you for the end of the programme, where you’ll take place in role play assessments and a test, to make sure you’re fully prepared to thrive.


​We want you to succeed which is why your wider team and line manager are there to support you. You’ll meet on a regular basis to address your progress and attend refresher courses every few months so you’re constantly learning and developing.

​By completing these refresher courses, as well as meeting your targets and demonstrating the right behaviours, you ‘ll be eligible for promotion, putting you on the fast track to both leadership and top sales roles.

​We’ll be talking more about our promotion scheme next week, so make sure to follow us on FacebookTwitter and LinkedIn to keep up to date.


​Hopefully we’ve calmed any reservations you might have had about recruitment; and whilst it still takes a special type of individual, it’s our commitment to do all we can to help you become the best you can be.

​If you’re interested in pursuing a career in recruitment, check out our Facebook page or email us for both part-time and full-time positions.
