Nancy was asked to help a client in Australia hire people for his business. The result was the process she developed and honed that now achieves a success rate of over 88% (compared with the average success rate of 25 – 30%). It was developed to work remotely so was ideal for the Covid situation.

As a result Vinehouse offers a 12 month guarantee on their candidates and will replace them free of charge, if they don’t work out (for any reason) during that time. This includes if they are run over by a bus.
