With the team’s filtering we shortlisted 26 strong candidates, interviewed 12, and chose one exceptional person. From our first conversation to filling the position, they were professional, responsive and supportive throughout.”

  • “Since beginning our collaboration with TCSN at the end of 2025, we’ve seen significant improvement across multiple areas. Both my team and our Registered Manager have noticed a clear increase in recruitment, alongside a much more streamlined administrative process — improving our response times and the overall experience for candidates

They filter out unsuitable applicants and screen applications so we have a manageable starting point. Without doubt they’ve made a positive difference to our hiring rate and made Indeed a viable source of candidates again."

  • “Whilst working with The Care Social Network we can already see a difference in the number of applicants and hires. In our first month we hired 12 care professionals across the group — the team can see we’re already making progress. Stephen and his team are always available to assist, and anything we need changed is completed promptly. I’d 100% recommend working with them."

    Adam Griffin, Multi Franchise Recruiter

    Home Instead Doncaster Group

  • “Since partnering with The Care Social Network we’ve had a positive experience expanding our base of Care Professionals. The process is smooth and easy to follow, letting our recruitment team focus less on initial screening and more on high-quality conversations. In our first three months we offered 32 candidates a Care Professional role across three offices — giving continuity of care to clients and taking stress off operational teams. "

    Rebecca Bradley, Group Operations Manager

    Home Instead, Wirral, Chester and Liverpool South

  • “Our enterprise group has 100% benefited from working with The Care Social Network. Not only have we grown our capacity in all offices, the quality of the applications has noticeably improved as well. Stephen and his team are extremely responsive and understand the needs of a growing domiciliary business."

    Jenny Kyle, Head of People

    Home Instead, Wirral, Chester and Liverpool South

  • “Stephen and his team attended one of our Care Homes to conduct a full recruitment health check. In the first four months we hired 23 staff across two homes — a mix of nurses, carers, head and deputy chefs, kitchen assistants and domestics. The biggest difference is consistency: agency use has dropped considerably, giving continuity of care to our residents. We’re now saving circa £10,000 per month at one of our care homes."
