Leeds College of Building have explored alternative recruitment methods to fill ‘hard to recruit’ roles such as their Estates Assistant/Catering Assistant roles (salary ranges from £15,402 to £16,204 per annum).  Previously, the College had advertised both vacancies 13 times in total from 2017 to 2019 with no success, but through the 3 hour ‘speed interviewing’ events, the College managed to fill 2 Estates Assistant posts and 4 Catering Assistant posts with a £4,500 saving in recruitment costs.
