Hiring with Confidence
Recruit the Right People — Without the Legal Headaches
Hiring Someone New? Let’s Make Sure You Get It Right
Hiring is exciting — but it’s also risky. The wrong hire can cost your business time, money, and energy. And making a mistake in the recruitment process can even leave you open to legal claims.
That’s why it pays to do it properly — right from the start.
Hiring with Confidence is our step-by-step service for UK small business owners who want to recruit fairly, legally, and with confidence. We help you attract the right candidates, avoid common compliance traps, and set your new hire up for success from day one.
You’ll get everything you need to carry out the process yourself — from job ad to signed contract. And if you’d like a little more support? We can step in at key stages too (see Step 3).
Why Getting Hiring Right Matters
Most small business owners don’t realise that hiring isn’t just about finding the right person — it’s also a legal process.
Even before someone joins your team, you’re bound by UK employment law:
-
Job adverts must avoid discriminatory language
-
Interviews must be fair and structured
-
Interview notes must be kept and may be legally requested
-
Every decision must be based on objective, documented criteria
Failing to meet these obligations can lead to claims — even from candidates you don’t hire.
We make sure you stay compliant at every step, while still hiring someone who’s a great fit for your business.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s included in the Hiring with Confidence service?
You’ll get a complete roadmap to run a compliant recruitment process — from writing a job ad to onboarding your new hire. That includes templates, checklists, interview tools, and contract documents.
Can I use this for any type of role?
Yes. We tailor the documents and guidance to suit the level and nature of the role you’re hiring for — whether it’s your first employee or an experienced team lead.
Will you write the job ad for me?
We’ll give you a legally compliant advert template that includes all the required wording and structure. You just drop in your business-specific details like role description, duties, and experience required — and we can review it before you post.
Can you help me with interview questions?
Absolutely. We’ll provide you with behaviour-based and role-based question banks, plus an interview scoring sheet to help you stay fair and focused. You’ll know exactly what to ask and how to document your decisions.
Do I really need to keep interview notes?
Yes — candidates are legally entitled to request their interview notes. Having accurate, consistent notes protects you from discrimination claims and shows that your decision was based on fair and objective criteria.
What if I don’t know how to write a contract?
No problem — we provide you with a compliant offer letter and employment contract template. It’s written in plain English and covers everything you’re legally required to include.
Do you offer onboarding support too?
Yes. We include a first-day checklist, induction template, and guidance to help you onboard your new hire smoothly and professionally.
Can you help if I get stuck partway through?
Definitely. We offer ad-hoc support if you need help at any stage — whether it’s reviewing applications, preparing for interviews, or double-checking your contract before you send it.
