Syl · HR Business Partner
Thanks. I graded everyone who fits against your brief. Two strong matches and one close.

The maths
One agency hire, or a whole year of Syl.
A typical agency fee is a percentage of first-year salary. On Sylpen you pay a monthly plan and hire as many people as you like.
Illustration only. Agency fees vary. Standard is £249 a month, or £199 a month on a 1-year plan.
Questions
What companies ask about hiring for HR.
Is CIPD membership checked?
CIPD has no public member directory, so membership is always shown as self-declared. Syl never uses it as a hard filter unless you make it a must-have, and you can ask to see the certificate.
How does Syl grade a match?
Line by line, against the must-haves and nice-to-haves in your brief. A green line needs evidence from the person's CV, profile or answers, and each line says where it came from. Casework, headcount and change figures are what the person told us unless Sylpen looked them up, and the profile says which. Syl recommends; you decide who to meet.
What will Syl never ask a candidate?
About their own health, union membership or past claims, or anything about who they are, such as age or family. Syl asks about the work: the casework, the change and the people they supported.
Can I hire for commission-heavy roles?
Yes. Put the base salary and any commission or bonus in your brief. Candidates see the salary before they say yes, so the conversation starts from facts.
What does it cost?
Start on Free: one UK role with every match in full, and your first 3 meetings, no card needed. Post one job free too. To meet more people and make offers, Standard is £249 a month, or £199 a month on a 1-year plan. No hiring fee, however many you hire. Monthly plans cancel any time and run to the end of the month you've paid for.
How do you keep hiring fair?
Only UK companies Sylpen has verified can see candidates, and a candidate can hide their profile from their current employer. Syl refuses criteria that would discriminate, such as age or nationality, and suggests the lawful version. Every hiring decision is made by people.
