For candidates

Your next move, handled in confidence.

We’re specialist matchmakers. If you are an experienced datacenter professional, or consider yourself a highly talented individual, then we should know you, even if you’re not looking today.

Our candidate promise

The standard of service you have a right to expect.

When you engage with Datacenter People, we will always strive for these nine things, from the first call to your first month in the new role.

Confidentiality

When you become a candidate you put yourself at a certain amount of risk with your current employer. We will obtain your authorisation before presenting your CV to a client organisation, we will not discuss your candidacy with anyone, and we will caution a client to also safeguard your confidentiality.

Full information

In order to make the right decision, you need to know as much as possible about the position and client organisation. That means full and open disclosure regarding the nature and requirements of the position.

Preparation

You can expect to be provided with all relevant information about the organisation and the hiring manager in order to best prepare you for success during the interview process.

Respect

We understand that your current position demands your full time and attention. When scheduling appointments and interviews we will demonstrate the utmost respect for your time, your position and your responsibilities to your employer.

Timely communication

Once you become an active candidate, we will communicate with you in a timely manner at each and every step of the process.

Feedback

We will give you an honest appraisal of how you seem to fit the opportunity and where you do not. If the client decides not to proceed, we will provide as complete an explanation of the decision as possible.

Professional treatment

A clear understanding of the position, an organised interview, doing what we say we are going to do when we say we are going to do it, and answering all your questions in an honest and forthright manner.

No pressure

The best placements happen when you have the time to make a measured, well-thought out decision. We will never try to hurry your decision or put pressure on you to accept an offer, but we will keep you informed of any client deadlines.

Concluding recruitment

We play a crucial role as intermediary during the negotiation of your contract. When you have signed on the dotted line, we will stay in touch to make sure that your transition into the new position is a success.

Candidates on the experience.

“Steve is definitely the best headhunter I have ever worked with. His rich experience in the data center industry enables him to quickly identify his candidate's strengths. He can also find the shining points of his candidates by a 30 minute conversation which he then bridges to the business needs of his clients. He only asked necessary questions during the interview, briefing and follow up with both candidate & client. Very professional.”

Tiger ZhaoDirector of Operations, Chayora

“Datacenter People came to me with an opportunity that was suited to my experiences and interests. It is rare to receive such an accurate opportunity, they did a great job at analysing my profile and my expectations. The first call was pretty straightforward and I had a good understanding of the role. Despite 2020 being a difficult year, Adam arranged everything so I could have video calls with the manager. After every call, Adam came to me to get my feedback, to find out how it went and to answer my questions. Never did I feel under any pressure and we continued the interview process. At the end, I signed for a new exciting opportunity in the DC sector. I am happy that everything went smoothly and I keep a good memory from this experience.”

Gil PecheuxSenior Critical Services Technician, CBRE

“From the very start, I found Sean to be very competent at his job and efficient in communicating information to me at the right time throughout the process. Including answering my many questions! I particularly appreciated his empathy and reassurance when there was a delay (through no-one’s fault) and it was mainly for that reason that I turned down another role for this one.”

Ibrahim MohammedApplication Engineer AC Power, Vertiv

“I was initially contacted by Sean regarding a Data Center Engineer position that was opening close to where I lived in Copenhagen, Denmark. Sean was very encouraging about my skills and previous background. We spoke back and forth many times before I had my initial interview, so I was feeling confident that I was ready. The interview went well, and I was invited for a face to face interview to meet with the other employees, which went well, and I was offered the position. I've now been a Data Center Engineer for 9 months now, and I'm enjoying the role. Sean was great in helping me make this step. The whole process from the initial email to the final phone call was extremely easy.”

Adam ReevesData Center Engineer, Penta Infra

“If you want to get into the data center industry, Adam is the guy to contact. Whether its in technology or as an engineer or electrician to name a few, Adam will work to find you your dream job. Adam can even open doors, that would normally be closed. Do not hesitate to reach out to Adam.”

Anders Blok MichelsonCritical Facilities Technician, CBRE

“I strongly recommend working with Julia! She's supported me in the whole recruiting process professionally and paying particular attention to my business.”
