Our Recruitment Process

My experience with Hourglass is quite special as it began several years ago. I was ready for my next teaching role, and the team was able to give me the guidance, confidence, support and information I needed.

If there were questions that they did not have the answers to, they would go out of their way to research and get back to me. What stood out the most was that they were able to keep communication open and they did that with a smile.

They always had my best interests at heart and ensured that they found the school that was right for me. I stayed at this school for four years and I was able to grow and develop over that time. They stayed in touch with me years after my successful placement and I enjoyed those check-ins.

A few months ago I reached again, ready to take on a different role and advance my career. Once again they ensured that I was focused on the opportunities that would be a great fit.

The team at Hourglass will help you with the right placement wherever you are in your career and they will do it flawlessly and effortlessly. Hourglass consultants will always be thoughtful, professional and unbiased. They are a great team that will treat you as a priority and like family.

I want to sincerely thank you for everything you have done for me. I know you might see your work as just your job, but take it from someone who has been navigating the education arena for over 20 years- what you do is truly life-changing.

In no time, you secured me a placement at my current school and followed up with well-informed advice.

Hourglass has a bunch of really friendly and helpful and professional staff, who cared about my progress in each step of the journey.

I would recommend them to anyone who wants someone who will guide and provide needed reassurance, help, and explain when parts of the process aren’t going as well as you expect it to. Thanks for your guidance Hourglass!

I was placed at a school, which was not the right fit for me. My Hourglass consultant was very selective for my next placement because he wanted me to shine.

The only jobs I have truly been successful in have been found for me by Hourglass.

I have kept in touch with Hourglass for the past 3-4 years and they have only found me the best Schools. I no longer apply directly to Schools,  I just leave it in Hourglass’ hands.

I am truly grateful for the support that I have received from Hourglass.

It was great to have people believing in my potential and treating me with kindness and respect this whole time. I can’t believe they found a suitable role for me in such short time and helped me find a place at a great school. Hourglass’ actions and advice were always in my best interest.

Although I have almost a decade’s worth of experience in education this was the first time I approached an agency based on it being highly recommended by another teacher and I have to say I was incredibly impressed.

I can see why so many good schools are connected with Hourglass – and with permanent positions. They clearly are providing schools with high quality staff in a way that is far more efficient for both schools and teachers. I would recommend them to any colleague or friend in teaching.

Hourglass is the best teaching agency I’ve worked with. They’ve kept me in work, in schools I want to work in, and taken the hassle out of the application rigmarole. The team have taken the time to understand what I’m looking for in a role and are incredibly diligent at finding relevant opportunities. I’m certain they wouldn’t send me to a school unless they really thought I’d get on well there. 

My consultant deserves a special mention for his frequent check-ins. He calls when he says he will, and is always knowledgeable and professional in his manner, but not without a sense of humour. It’s really reassuring to know that someone is looking out for me, and he advice always feels like he’s considering my best interests. I’d recommend Hourglass to any teachers looking for work.

I had an excellent experience with Hourglass. 

No question was too much. They went out of their way to make sure that I was clear about everything from start to finish. 

My experience with Hourglass was excellent. It all started with my consultant who responded to my emails in a timely and professional manner. Overall, I must say that Hourglass is an outstanding recruiting agency.

 

Excellent service overall.

My consultants ensured I was kept informed about everything. It is obviously a team effort at Hourglass. Many agents contacted me at different phases to get specific things done – whether interviews, documents verification, visa details, and even relocation guidance. It was just an amazing experience to work with the Hourglass team, and I have already recommended the company to other people like me. 

I highly recommend Hourglass. 

The staff at Hourglass is great and they guide you through every step of the process. I commend the entire team  for everything they have done to assist me.

Great service – attentive, informed, honest and efficient.

Lots of supportive and nurturing advice which differentiates from other companies and makes a huge difference to the recruitment process.
