Recruitment Satisfaction not guaranteed


How satisfied are you at work? It’s time to have your say.


P


roperty recruitment specialist Deverell Smith Recruitment has launched its second Key Attraction Survey as it bids to pull together a comprehensive guide to recruitment trends, staff motivation, salary levels and job satisfaction.


To have your say in shaping your next job package complete the


questionnaire at www.deverellsmith.com/survey. All entrants will automatically be placed in a prize draw to win one of three new iPads! The information provided will be kept strictly confidential and only be used for the purpose of the survey. According to Managing Director, Andrew Deverell Smith, his


team is “keen to understand what motivates people when they are looking for a new job as well as identify the industry standards with regards to salary, bonuses, training and career progression.


The information will help employers structure their reward packages.’


“We will take all the data, analyse the trends according to


industry sector and use the information to advise employers on how to structure reward packages and people policies to fit with what is important with current and future staff members to help attract and retain the best talent. It will also help job hunters know what they can expect from their next career move. The market has become more buoyant and there are more and more jobs coming available, so now is a the perfect time to be having another look at what is important to those who make the property industry tick.” Last year’s ground breaking survey found that, “Seventy-five per


cent of London’s property professionals were indifferent or dissatisfied with their job,” and acted as a wake-up call for many UK property agencies, who subsequently called on Deverell Smith Recruitment to assist with revamping their talent retention and recruitment strategies. Results from the 2011 survey showed that, whilst an important


factor, basic salary was not the be all and end all when it comes to attractive employment packages, with components such as a company’s reputation, training programmes and brand identity all playing a key part.
