Manage your IR35 Process

The IR35 reform deadline date of 6th April 2021 has long passed and the new rules have been well cemented in.&nbsp;GSA Techsource has partnered with Kingsbridge to provide an award winning comprehensive IR35 solution that manages the entire process, from status assessment to process consultation, so you can confidently and compliantly maintain your flexible workforce outside IR35 where applicable.WHAT CAN THE KINGSBRIDGE IR35 STATUS TOOL DO FOR YOU?The Kingsbridge Status Tool provides:<ul><li>Fast, efficient and accurate IR35 assessments</li><li>Access to real time reporting</li><li>IR35 specialists on-hand to assess indeterminate status result</li><li>Interaction with the whole supply chain, including unique circumstances</li><li>The ability to request a manual review irrespective of the result produced by the tool</li></ul>&nbsp;SHOW DOES THE KINGSBRIDGE IR35 STATUS TOOL WORK?The Kingsbridge IR35 Status Tool takes a best-of-both approach, allying a custom-designed automated process - developed by&nbsp;<a data-cke-saved-href="https://go.kingsbridge.co.uk/AndyVessey" href="https://go.kingsbridge.co.uk/AndyVessey" title="Andy Vessey ATT" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Andy Vessey ATT</a>, ex-HMRC, tax advisor, and a leading IR35 specialist who has defended over 500 investigations, most of which he has won - with in-house expert consultancy to provide the quickest, most accurate IR35 status result available.&nbsp;If it&rsquo;s a clear-cut case, the tool then generates an instant determination, as well as a comprehensive report that pulls through the notable positives or negatives of a given engagement, as well as an official Status Determination Statement (SDS) that you can supply to the contractor. If it&rsquo;s a borderline result, the answers given are passed over to one of Kingsbridge&rsquo;s in-house IR35 specialists for further manual review.Kingsbridge is currently the only IR35 status provider on the market to offer a hybrid solution, and we firmly believe that it&rsquo;s the best one-stop-shop to meet all your IR35 business requirements&nbsp;IR35 PROTECT OFFERS ADAPTABLE TRIBUNAL COVER FOR CONTRACTORSIf a role is successfully outside of IR35, it is important to back the assessment with IR35 insurance.Kingsbridge offer a market leading, Zurich underwritten IR35 insurance policy that protects the whole supply chain for up to &pound;100k legal defence costs and &pound;100k tax liability, as well as providing a legal expenses policy.Not only does this insurance protect the contractor in the run up to April 2021, it's also designed to flex come the reform deadline to cover the fee-payer as well. This means that the entire supply chain is protected against the potentially crippling costs of an IR35 enquiry and any tax debts found owing - peace of mind for the contractor, and a safe bet for the fee payer.Find out more about&nbsp;<a data-cke-saved-href="https://go.kingsbridge.co.uk/ir35protectinsurance" href="https://go.kingsbridge.co.uk/ir35protectinsurance" title="IR35 protect here" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IR35 protect here</a>, or speak with one of our consultants to discuss further.<a href="\cm\employers\contract-recruitment-services">Contract Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\managed-recruitment-services">Managed Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\permanent-recruitment-services">Permanent Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\public-sector-clients">Public Sector Clients</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\upload-vacancy">Submit A Vacancy</a>

“GSA Techsource have managed numerable searches across a variety of roles. They clearly grasp our requirements and ensure only worthy CVs are sent for consideration. They are very responsive and deliver great results.” Head of QA, Northgate

What Do Our Clients Say

<blockquote>"I have worked with Lauren and the team at GSA now for 18 months and it truly has been one of the most collaborative recruitment agencies I've worked with. The team are responsive, approachable and honest, which are qualities both me and my managers find important.&nbsp; They have a wealth of knowledge in the sector and I always appreciate their input on the recruitment market. Not only that but they are a great bunch to work with personally so thanks team!" Charlotte Bliss, People Partner, Inspired Gaming Group&nbsp;&ldquo;GSA Techsource have managed numerable searches across a variety of roles. They clearly grasp our requirements and ensure only worthy CVs are sent for consideration. They are very responsive and deliver great results.&rdquo;&nbsp;Head of QA, Software Services Company</blockquote>&ldquo;After 16 years, GSA Techsource continues to be our key supplier for contract and permanent IT resource and I would estimate that they successfully fill 4 out of every 5 requirements within the business. They understand the IT market and have a high degree of expertise within the technologies that we deploy.&nbsp;We receive small numbers of relevant CVs and in the majority of cases hire from the original short-list, which is what matters most to me, managing a team within a pressured, high transaction environment.&rdquo;&nbsp;UK Development Manager, Global Stationery Supplier<blockquote>GSA Techsource have been our preferred recruitment provider for the last 6 years. During this time they have successfully filled the majority of contract and permanent positions for iTradeNetwork. They have gained a good understanding of our business needs, and are able to take a high level brief and use this in order to present us with good candidates. They are ethical and easy to work with. They remain flexible, being prepared to engage on our projects in ways that suit our business.&nbsp;IT Director, Supply Chain solutions developer&nbsp;</blockquote>I have experienced GSA Techsource as an NHS Manager looking to recruit technical staff within the NHS, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. It was clear that they knew the type of staff that we were looking for and had access to an excellent pool of those staff. At every stage of the recruitment process GSA Techsource were professional, courteous and exercised due diligence in selecting potential contractor staff. They never needed chasing and made all the necessary arrangement for vetting checks and interviews. I always felt that they truly understood the unique requirements of the NHS. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other NHS Trusts.&nbsp;Service Desk Manager, NHS Foundation Trust, London<blockquote>In the 12 months we have worked with GSA I have been very happy with the service provided by the company. The service is very responsive and the quality of the contractor we currently use from GSA has been exceptional.&nbsp; What has impressed me most about GSA is the professional way in which they have supported us and deal quickly with our requests but without the constant barrage of emails and calls which other agencies seem to employ. I actually feel they listen to what we really want.&nbsp;Head of Business Intelligence, Community NHS Trust</blockquote>We had been using other agencies for a number of years, and had managed to recruit a permanent team but needed a couple of months&rsquo; cover during the transition period.&nbsp;Tom introduced us to 2 candidates, both of whom I considered to be of the standard required. Tom arranged for them to come in for tests and this went very smoothly and the person we recruited has proved a good team player and an excellent coder. I was also favourably impressed by the daily rate.&rdquo;&nbsp;​Clinical Coding Team Leader, NHS Foundation Trust, London<blockquote>We contacted Tom and GSA Techsource when we needed some Clinical Coding support to our Clinical Coding department while trying to recruit on a permanent basis. Upon Tom taking a detailed job description of what we were looking for as well as a good description of the team environment that we have within the department, Tom immediately came back with 2 candidates that both matched the specification we were looking for as they both had extensive Clinical Coding experience and equally as important they were both available at short notice and where at extremely competitive prices.&nbsp;We decided to recruit both the candidates, one starting just three days after we approached Tom with the need to bring in additional support. Both candidates provided us with the support we needed within the Clinical Coding department and also fitted in extremely well within the department.&nbsp;I would have no hesitation recommending Tom and GSA Techsource for providing staff into Clinical Coding departments as they quickly developed an understanding of what we were looking for and provided an excellent solution.&nbsp;Clinical Coding Team Manager, NHS Foundation Trust, Birmingham<a href="\cm\employers\manage-your-ir35-process">Manage Your IR35 Process</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\contract-recruitment-services">Contract Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\managed-recruitment-services">Managed Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\permanent-recruitment-services">Permanent Recruitment Services</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\public-sector-clients">Public Sector Clients</a> / <a href="\cm\employers\upload-vacancy">Submit A Vacancy</a></blockquote>

Your CV is an extremely important document. It is your first opportunity to ‘sell’ yourself to a prospective employer – it needs to be accurate, clear, concise and professional. 

How to write a professional CV

<h4>Your CV is an extremely important document. It is your first opportunity to &lsquo;sell&rsquo; yourself to a prospective employer &ndash; it needs to be accurate, clear, concise and professional.&nbsp;</h4>If a CV has a poor layout, is full grammatical errors, and riddled with spelling mistakes, it can be enough to turn a reader off, no matter how good your skills are.Keep colours to a minimum (ideally don't use colour), and keep your fonts consistent. It&rsquo;s always a good idea to use mainstream fonts to ensure the reader sees the CV as it was intended to look.Let&rsquo;s start with the basic structure. The length of a CV is always a contentious point and 2 pages is often stated as the ideal. However, job mobility over recent years means CVs often contain details of several roles and even if only briefly described, 2 pages are soon filled. It is perhaps sensible to aim for 3-4 pages max - much more than this and the reader is very unlikely to read the document in its entirety.There is no right or wrong layout, but the following is a good place to start:In the&nbsp;CV heading&nbsp;you can write your general information:&bull; Name&bull; Surname&bull; Local address&bull; E-mail address&bull; Phone number(s)CV Skills Summary (not summery!) This is the place to catch the readers' attention with your primary skills &ndash; you don&rsquo;t need to go into great length about each. The skills summary is also often referred to as a personal (not personnel!) profile.CV Objective&nbsp;If you have a specific aim in your job move, it is worth adding this under your objectives ie "What is the next step in my career?" This should be a short, concise statement that informs the employer what kind of position you are looking for. The type of position, the role (managerial, supervisor, contractor) should be included as well.Professional or Work Experience description on your CV&nbsp;This section includes any work experience that you have in the field you are applying for. Even if the post was unpaid, voluntary, summer job, internship, co-op experience or extracurricular activity it is worth including - always try to explain any gaps in your CV and state whether your roles were permanent, contract, part time etc Each job detail should include this basic information:&bull; Name of organization.&bull; Title of position&bull; Length you held the post (dates)&bull; ResponsibilitiesAlso include languages (spoken/written/understood).Education on your CV&nbsp;List all of your qualifications in this section. Include certifications from non-academic institutions, especially those that are related to the job vacancy.The Activities and Interests Section in your CV&nbsp;Views differ regarding the inclusion of hobbies and interests as it is possible to both interest and alienate a reader. Any activities that you do in your free time, can be related to your job or give the reader a feeling of team work or motivation. Participating in student activities, professional associations or enthusiast clubs shows leadership qualities. Leave out any activities related to politics, religion or controversial topics as these can easily alienate the reader.CV References&nbsp;If you have references that you are willing to provide you can either include them in the end of the CV or state &lsquo;References Available Upon Request&rsquo;Finally, check, check and check again. Don't just rely on spell checker - for example,&nbsp;a homonym won't always be picked up as it maybe spelled correctly but is the wrong word being used, as in the example above - summery vs summary!<a href="\cm\candidates\contracting-through-gsa-techsource">Contracting Through GSA</a> /&nbsp;<a href="\cm\candidates\how-to-succeed-at-interview">How to Succeed at Interview</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/a-guide-to-competency-based-interviews">Competency Based Interviews</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/guide-to-self-bill-invoicing">Self Bill Invoicing</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/public-sector-opportunities">Public Sector Opportunities</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/off-payroll-in-the-public-and-private-sectors-ir35">Off-Payroll Guide</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/submit-cv">Submit CV</a>

You’ve bagged an interview for your dream job, and you’re the best candidate by a mile.

How to succeed at interview

You&rsquo;ve bagged an interview for your dream job, and you&rsquo;re the best candidate by a mile. But forget any ideas you might have about your abilities shining through of their own accord. Interviewing well is a skill like any other, and it takes knowledge, commitment and hard work to come out on top. Remember, every employer is going to ask themselves two things about you: Are you qualified for the job? Are you enthusiastic? Taking the time to prepare a perfect interview will successfully answer both these questions.Dress to impressFace to face or remote, if you look untidy, that&rsquo;s how you&rsquo;ll be remembered. If in doubt, it&rsquo;s always better to be too smart than too laid back. Wearing a suit or a smart dress sounds obvious, but you wouldn&rsquo;t believe the number of candidates who turn up in jeans and t-shirt, either virually or in person. It sounds patronising telling someone to dress smart, but a lot of people coming out of school or university just aren&rsquo;t interview-savvy. Occasionally casual is ok, but check with your recruitment consultant first to see what is expected.Prepare, prepare, prepare!List likely questions in advance. Memorise your answers. Check the time and place of your interview. Find out how to get there - do a dry run if necessary. Research the company you want to work for. Research the person interviewing you - a rudimentary search on the net might throw up some useful information.Get physicalNever underestimate the importance of a firm, confident handshake and positive body language. Employers have been known to turn down a candidate because they slouched in their chair. You have to look keen and engaged, so mirror the body language of the person interviewing you, lean in towards them at times and don&rsquo;t cross your arms. Always accept a glass of water, it can create a useful barrier during an uncomfortable question and buy you a few crucial seconds while you take a sip. But never take a biscuit &mdash; they&rsquo;ll often try to throw you with a difficult question the moment you take a big bite!Use examplesIt&rsquo;s no good just using abstract terms to talk about how organised or efficient you are. Prepare some examples from your past experience to immediately back up your claims. Emphasise what unique talents you&rsquo;ll be bringing to the company. Don&rsquo;t go too far though - pretending you&rsquo;re some kind of superhero will make you hard to relate to. Show humility - talk about an area you&rsquo;ve struggled at, and the way you overcame the problem.Always be positiveWhen you&rsquo;re asked why you&rsquo;re moving on, don&rsquo;t start slagging off your old boss. A lot of industries are very close knit and you may be insulting the interviewer&rsquo;s friend. Think of positive reasons &mdash; make it all about the new company, your new career prospects and your ambition to succeed. Prepare at least 15 questions to ask at the end &ndash; five about the role, five about the company, and five specifically about the interviewer. It seems a lot, but you&rsquo;ll find most of your prepared questions will be answered during the course of the interview, and they&rsquo;re crucial for showing your interest in the role.Ending the interviewAt the end, try asking if they have any reservations about you &ndash; this will give you the perfect opportunity to give an immediate riposte to their concerns and provide you with a clean finish to the interview.<a href="\cm\candidates\contracting-through-gsa-techsource">Contracting Through GSA</a> / <a href="\cm\candidates\how-to-write-a-professional-cv">How to Write a CV</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/a-guide-to-competency-based-interviews">Competency Based Interviews</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/guide-to-self-bill-invoicing">Self Bill Invoicing</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/public-sector-opportunities">Public Sector Opportunities</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/off-payroll-in-the-public-and-private-sectors-ir35">Off-Payroll Guide</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/submit-cv">Submit CV</a>

What is competency based interviewing and what should I expect in the interview?

A Guide to Competency Based Interviews

What is competency based interviewing and what should I expect in the interview?Behavioural or competency based interviews are a style of interviewing used by organisations in order that a candidate can best show how they would demonstrate certain behaviours/skills in the workplace; by answering questions about how you have reacted to and dealt with previous work place situations. The idea being that by looking at past experience a potential employer can predict future behaviour. A competency is something that can be measured and is now commonly used, not only in interviews and through other aspects of the assessment process but also in appraisals and training.<img src="/static/imglib/15a8c37a-ac02-4340-bf11-7ccc4a394bb1.jpeg" height="177" width="345" alt="Competency Based Interviews" title="Competency Based Interviews" />During the interview itself you will be asked to give an example of a situation or task that led you to take a certain course of action.The interview questions maybe slightly different to the style you may be used to. They will tend to focus on past situations and your behaviour in those situations.Questions are likely to start with:"Please give me an example of when. .&rdquo; or "Tell me about an occasion..." etc.In responding to a competency-based question, the most important principle is therefore to:Give a real example that actually happened to you&nbsp;- don't talk in broad terms about how you generally tackle those sorts of situations. Talk about a specific example. Be specific, not general or vague.When answering, remember that the interviewer wants to know what YOU as an individual delivered and achieved, so avoid over-using examples of &lsquo;we&rsquo;.Once you have talked about your example, the interviewer will probably ask you further probing questions to get a deeper understanding of what you did.So, the second key principle is:Be ready to talk about your example in a lot of detail.These probing questions will then be used to determine the course of action you took and what changes were created by those actions and the effects of those actions on others (which is key to remember when discussing your answer).Don't describe how you would behave. Describe how you did actually behave. If you later decided you should have behaved differently, explain this. The employer will see that you learned something from experience. When answering competency style questions it is best to adopt the STAR model, which will allow you to structure your answer in a logical and concise manner.Situation&nbsp;&ndash; Describe the situation/problem you were faced with (try and keep your examples recent)Task&nbsp;&ndash; what did you have to do?Action&nbsp;&ndash; what action did you take and why. Were there any challenges/obstacles and how did you overcome them?Results&nbsp;&ndash; highlight the outcomeDescribe the&nbsp;Situation and the&nbsp;Task briefly. Most of your answers should focus on&nbsp;Action and&nbsp;Results; applying the who (you), what, when, where, why and how model often used in journalism to answer all the relevant questions that will keep you focused and make your description more interesting.Preparing for a competency-based interviewFirst of all reread your CVThe best way to identify what competencies the organisation is likely to require is to review the job description and discuss this further with your Consultant who will be able to advise you.For each competency being measured try to think of specific examples of when you have evidenced those behaviours but do not prepare specific answers prior to your interview as this is likely to mean that you provide answers that do not fully answer the question. A common mistake made is for the candidate/interviewee to prepare so rigidly that they are only prepared for one specific question per competency; the mistake being that the question prepared for is not the question asked.It is obviously important that you listen to the question put to you and answer it rather than one that you guessed might be asked.You may find it helpful to run through some competency examples with a friend or colleague prior to your interview.Examples of competency or behavioral interview questions:&bull; Describe a time when you were faced with problems or stresses at work that tested your coping skills. What did you do?&bull; Give an example of a time when you had to be relatively quick in coming to a decision.&bull; Give me an example of an important goal you had to set and tell me about your progress in reaching that goal.&bull; Describe the most creative work-related project you have completed.&bull; Give me an example of a problem you faced at work, and tell me how you solved it.<a href="\cm\candidates\contracting-through-gsa-techsource">Contracting Through GSA</a> / <a href="\cm\candidates\how-to-write-a-professional-cv">How to Write a CV</a> / <a href="\cm\candidates\how-to-succeed-at-interview">How to Succeed at Interview</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/guide-to-self-bill-invoicing">Self Bill Invoicing</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/public-sector-opportunities">Public Sector Opportunities</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/off-payroll-in-the-public-and-private-sectors-ir35">Off-Payroll Guide</a> / <a href="/cm/candidates/submit-cv">Submit CV</a>
