Is Your CV Safe? Our Policy on Data Privacy and Data Submission

Is your CV safe? One of the biggest concerns job seekers have when working with a recruitment agency is confidentiality. Many people worry that their details will be shared indiscriminately, potentially alerting their current employer that they are looking for a new role.

At Pineapple Recruitment we operate under a strict policy: we will never send your CV to any company without your explicit permission.

We pride ourselves on a completely ethical and transparent process. Your privacy and your current employment status are our top priorities.

How Our Process Works

We do not believe in mass-mailing CVs to employers. Instead, we follow a clear, candidate-first process to protect your data and your reputation:

  1. The Initial Discussion: When a vacancy arises that matches your skillset, your consultant will contact you directly.
  2. The Role Briefing: We will discuss the specific job requirements, the salary, and the name of the company with you to gauge your interest.
  3. Your Consent: Only after you have given us your explicit consent will your CV be presented to the potential employer.

This approach ensures you remain in complete control of where your personal information goes and which companies see your career history.

Why This Matters for Your Job Search

Protecting your data is not just about privacy; it is also about your professional credibility.

When an agency sends a CV without permission, it can lead to awkward situations, such as your details landing on the desk of your current manager or a company you have already applied to independently. By ensuring every submission is authorised, we protect your current job security and ensure you are only put forward for roles you actually want.

Work with a Trusted Partner

Looking for a new job requires trust. If you want to work with an agency that respects your confidentiality and values an ethical process, we are here to help.
