London sees the launch of first-ever "ethical hiring platform", Network14

An entrepreneur based out of London has recently debuted the global premiere of a socially-responsible, ethical hiring platform.

In return for a charitable donation, Network-14 (founded by Elan Diamond, former Worldpay Talent Acquisition Partner and previously Founding Partner of REC Award Winner, Concilium Finance) connects employers with a community of experienced professionals, providing referrals for open assignments.

Employers posting assignments are able to uniquely review details of both the ‘Nominee’ (the job-seeker) and their ‘Sponsor’ (the referral-provider) as part of their consideration process.

Crucially, employers can engage directly with a Sponsor to obtain a professional reference regarding technical, behavioural and leadership competencies, as well as testimony regarding previous performance and achievements. This allows businesses to capitalise on the knowledge and understanding unique to those who genuinely know the Nominee on a professional level, affording credible insight-led hiring.

Significantly, employers posting assignments onto the job board offer a sum for Sponsors to donate to a charity of their choosing for successful introductions. This not only elicits insightful recommendations, it allows those involved to contribute directly to their CSR objective at the same time. This all whilst creating an infinitely more ethical approach to hiring overall.
