Providing candidate information is purely voluntary on your part. While it is generally the case that the more information you share with us, the better we will be able to assess you and/or your potential suitability for or within a managerial or similar management position, we recommend that you do not provide us with any candidate information that is little or not relevant to the relevant services we offer.
