What sets us apart
Recruitment with
technical expertise.
Leie Folk combines recruitment with real technical expertise. Candidates are not assessed only on their CV and a general recruitment interview – where needed, their technical skills are also assessed by a professional with experience from the IT industry. The technical part of the selection is handled by Michael Jacobsen, who has a solid professional background and experience in IT.
As a small company, we can also offer close and personal follow-up. We want to understand the actual need and present a few relevant candidates rather than send a large number of CVs.
Norway is our main market. If you are open to expertise from other countries, we search for candidates both in Norway and internationally.
What we stand for
Values
Four principles in everything we do – for companies and candidates alike.
Quality
We would rather present a few relevant candidates than a large number of CVs.
Transparency
We value honest, clear and professional communication with both clients and candidates.
People
Behind every CV and every position there is a person. That is why respect and a human approach are an important part of how we work.
