      Pros

      Supportive and encouraging colleagues, Senior Managers very engaged with the team, flexible working, dedicated and hardworking team.

      Cons

      A small team that is very driven with big ambitions often means we have lots of work and with few people to manage the workload. However, we do work hard to prioritise and plan to ensure work is well distributed.

        Pros

        I absolutely love working at Helpforce. The team environment is incredibly supportive, and ideas are always warmly welcomed. It is an inspiring workplace where every employee's voice matters. From day one, I felt a sense of belonging as I was warmly welcomed and supported by a very well-planned induction. The atmosphere here makes every workday enjoyable. My ideas have been embraced and implemented, making me feel valued. The support at Helpforce is outstanding. From our CEO to the line managers, the leadership team is genuinely interested in employee development, providing and valuing ongoing training, mentorship, and feedback. Moreover, the company culture is inclusive and respectful. Diversity is celebrated, and everyone is treated with fairness and equality. I feel comfortable expressing myself, knowing my voice will be heard and respected. In summary, Helpforce offers a supportive and inspiring work environment. I highly recommend Helpforce to anyone seeking a nurturing and supportive workplace. Pros: Supportive team environment Welcoming ideas and input Commitment to personal growth Inclusive and respectful culture

        Cons

        None that I can think of

          Cons

          As a small team the reality is that there is not much opportunity to progress to new roles within the organisation but this is recongnised and there is a good emphasis on training and development

              Great variety of work all with a social purpose. We're a small team so have a great opportunity to influence the work that we do as a whole organisation not just the project I work on. We work well and effectively as a small team. Flexible home working allows me to have great work, life, balance.

              Cons

              As a small team there's a lot to do and sometimes things just need to be done even if not a main part of your role.

                Pros

                Friendly, ambitious, courageous, fair - this is how I would describe Helpforce. Working with talented colleagues on a variety of projects is great for personal development and our focus on continuous improvement is great for our partners and stakeholders. We are a small, tightly-knit team and we embrace new ways of doing things alongside old-fashioned values.

                Cons

                The only downside is not wanting to work anywhere else.

                Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Helpforce. We are proud of our people and work really hard to ensure their work-life is enjoyable and that they feel their work really means something.

                  Pros

                  Working in a small charity you get weird combo of doing a variety of respsonsibilities, but also getting great access to leaders and snr customers Great team with broad range of backgrounds but aligned on our passion to fufil the potential of volunteering to change health & care Real respect for work life balance and genuinely care about you & your family

                  Cons

                  Not having the support bubble and extra resources you get in a large company

                  Thank you for your feedback. As a small charity we are always looking for input from our team to ensure we are effective in our practices. We've recently undergone a review of our HR processes and we are now more aligned with our competitors and have a more strategic approach to how we attract, develop and retain our talent. We will continue to improve on our offering to our employees.

                      I have a 5 year gap in my work history due to an illness. How do I explain this? I can't lie, SSD is on my background check as a previous employer. I am on it and looking to re-enter the job market and get off of it, but I understand it is a reason for employers to pause in hiring me.

                      Senior Associate

                      How do you interview for a position when you are under-qualified based on seniority but not based on skills? I currently serve as a senior associate for a reputable consulting firm, and I have an interview for an associate director position. However, I am just shy of the minimum YOE requirement included on the job application and relatively young (though I meet all of the other requirements). Any advice on convincing the hiring manager I am ready for a mid-level role?

                      EY

                      Had 4 behavioral interviews for a position last week. Last Friday (which was the last of the four interviews), the interviewer spent most of the interview selling me on the job and didn't ask me any questions. She ended the interview by saying she thinks I am confident and would be a great fit for the role. I took this as a good sign but giving it's 2023 you never truly know. Has anyone ever had an interviewer do something similar and not gotten the job?
