Second opinion recruitment at Unik Resurs
A second opinion is used at the final stage of a recruitment process, whether for internal or external recruitment, to ensure a well-informed decision. We help you evaluate whether your final candidates truly meet the expectations and requirements of the role, reducing the risk of recruitment mistakes.
Expert insights to strengthen your recruitment
When you want to be confident in your hiring decision, a second opinion adds valuable, professional support. Through tests, in-depth interviews, reference and background checks, we provide you with an objective assessment that helps minimize the risk of a wrong hire and maximize the success of your recruitment.
This service is particularly useful for organisations seeking an unbiased, modern recruitment approach. By adding an external expert perspective, we contribute new insights that enhance the overall quality and accuracy of your recruitment process.
When is second opinion recruitment helpful?
A second opinion offers crucial support when you are uncertain about final candidates or want to ensure that the chosen person truly fits the role. It is also beneficial when recruiting internally, where decisions are often influenced by existing relationships. Our service delivers objective analysis, increases precision, and introduces a fresh viewpoint that helps you feel confident in your choice.
Supporting your own recruitment
If you manage most of the recruitment process yourself, a second opinion helps you assess one or more final candidates with professional tools and insights. It’s often difficult to fully evaluate candidates without specialized resources, and emotional factors can sometimes cloud judgment. With our experience and data-driven approach, we give you solid decision support. While you handle most of the recruitment, we provide the clarity needed to make a secure, long-term choice.
You will carry out most of the recruitment work yourself, but will use our experience and knowledge to assess one or more final candidates.

Internal recruitment challenges
Internal recruitment is an excellent way to retain talent—when done correctly. However, statistics show that 4 out of 10 internal recruitments are unsuccessful, often because decisions are based on the belief that “we know each other.” These missteps are costly, as they can result in the loss of employees in both the new and previous roles. We help you navigate these challenges by providing an objective view, highlighting development potential, and giving you a foundation for successful management and support of the candidate.
