By final round, a candidate is interviewing you back — and nothing signals "we run things properly" like a driver at the station holding a discreet board, a quiet car to compose in, and never a payment moment or an expense claim to file afterwards. Book on behalf, exactly as for a client: driver details to the recruiter, live tracking so reception is warned, transfers held between interview rounds, and the fare coded to the search, requisition or cost centre.
Why it wins offers
A retained search costs tens of thousands; the candidate's car costs less than the interview lunch. Yet the car is what they remember at the decision moment — because it's the only part of the process that treated them like the executive you're asking them to become. For candidates weighing two offers, professionalism at the kerb is a genuine tiebreaker, and every recruiter who's lost a close one knows it.
Candidates are usually employed elsewhere, so the meet is quiet by design: a first-name-only or company-free board (or no board — a message with the driver's position), no employer names spoken aloud, and drivers signed to confidentiality like all our corporate work.
A candidate who navigated a strange city, rain and a taxi queue interviews worse than the same candidate delivered calmly to the door. The quiet cabin before final round is prep time you're gifting them — and it shows in the room.
The car is the candidate's first sample of how the company treats people. Firms that send one consistently report it back in acceptance conversations: "even the interview logistics were handled properly."
The booking
Candidate's first name, train or flight details, and the interview address — from the TA coordinator, the search firm's researcher or the hiring PA. We track the service and time the meet to actual arrival.
Discreet board with first name only, your company name if the search is open, or boardless — the driver messages the candidate directly if you share their number, or coordinates through you if you don't.
Multi-stage days — office to psychometrics to partner dinner — run with the driver holding between rounds, so a 40-minute overrun in round two never strands round three. Overnight candidates get the hotel legs in the same reference.
No payment moment for the candidate, no expense claim, no awkwardness — the fare lands coded to the search, requisition or cost centre on your account invoice, one line per candidate day.
Who books this
Shortlist logistics as part of the service you charge for: candidates moved between client interviews across London, coded per search, with the firm's polish attached to every mile. Pairs with our airport meet service for flown-in shortlists.
Final-round and assessment-day transport booked against requisition numbers — including multi-candidate days where several arrivals converge on one assessment centre without meeting each other in the lobby.
Chair and NED processes run under full discretion — unbranded cars and need-to-know handling from our discreet service, because a recognisable name entering your building is itself information.
FAQ
Send the candidate's first name, their train or flight details and the interview address — by phone, WhatsApp or online. We track the arrival, meet them with a discreet board (or boardless), transfer them between rounds with the driver holding, and bill the fare to your search, requisition or cost centre. The candidate never pays or expenses anything.
Yes — that's the default posture: a first-name-only board or no board at all, no company names spoken on the concourse, and confidentiality-signed drivers. For board-level searches, our discreet service adds unbranded cars and need-to-know booking records.
Yes — on multi-stage days the driver holds between rounds and absorbs overruns, so a long second interview never strands the third. Waiting is part of the booking, not a meter anxiety.
You do, invisibly — there is no payment moment in the car and nothing for the candidate to expense. The fare appears coded to the search or requisition on your account invoice, one clean line per candidate day.
Yes — flight-tracked meets at Heathrow, Gatwick and all London airports with the same discreet handling, plus hotel legs and the return to departures held in one reference for overnight processes.
Yes — multi-candidate days run as coordinated pickups converging on the venue, timed so candidates don't overlap awkwardly in the lobby, each journey coded separately for the requisition file.
