Collection of information

The personal details we will collect from your application includes information such as email address, name, telephone number, education, employment history, skills as well as your resume. This list, however, is not conclusive and is open to change. For example in the course of identifying suitable employment opportunities for you we may make enquiries of referees whose names you have provided to us. This information will be added to that which we already hold on you. We will always provide a copy of all personal information we hold on you should you request it. If you request us to delete all information we hold on you from our database, we will do so.

Use and disclosure of personal information

In some circumstances we may collect personal and sensitive information. This personal and sensitive information will be used in connection with your actual or possible work placement as well as our assessment of your ongoing performance and prospects. As mentioned above, this information could be in the form of:

  • Results of inquiries that we might make of your former employers, work colleagues, professional associations or registration body;

  • Results of any competency or medical tests;

  • Performance feedback (whether positive or negative);

  • Additional information about you which you have provided to us.

Your personal information may be disclosed to:

  • Potential and actual employers and clients of Charterhouse;

  • Other consultants at Charterhouse in connection with possible employment opportunities;

  • Any person or body with a lawful entitlement to obtain information.

If you do not provide Charterhouse with the information we seek we may be limited in our ability to locate suitable employment for you.

Your details will not be disclosed to any person, body or organisation for any purpose other than the primary purpose of us holding your information, that being the securing of employment for you.
