I have sent a copy of my CV to Sigma and I can see some vacancies on your website that I think I am suitable for. Why have you not called me?

This could be for any number of reasons, sometimes clients are specific about industry sector experience, for example they might have told us that they only want to see candidates with automotive industry experience. It could also be that based on the information that we hold on you we don’t think that you would be interested for example, if you told us that you were looking for a minimum of £25K and the vacancy is paying £22K. If in doubt then please call and we can double check.

Should I be concerned that Sigma Recruitment has my contact details on file?

  • NO, we take our IT security very seriously. We have robust systems in place to prevent both external and internal threats to the data we hold falling into the wrong hands.  We will never sell your data to any third party.
