“I would like to add my thanks and appreciation to you and your team, who assisted in providing this resource – and the honest and helpful manner in which changes during the project were handled. This project was very important to us with regards to the onward development of the Stafford site and I had no hesitation in requesting assistance from Bauhaus to meet this challenge. I look forward to working with you and your team in the future.”

“Myself and my company have been using Bauhaus for over 10 years for the supply of contract labour to our projects across the country. They have always been extremely accommodating, delivered quickly and with high quality. They have been instrumental to our success and I would highly recommend their services”

“We recently contacted Bauhaus to fill a role for a Project Manager based on a recommendation from a colleague. We were extremely satisfied by the candidates we were sent. They were all well prepared for their interviews and well suited to our specific needs. We will definitely contact Bauhaus again should we have any further vacancies.”

“Bauhaus Recruitment have supplied several of our London jobs with Data Engineers. We have been very happy with the engineers work rate and professionalism. We will continue to use Bauhaus if we have any more requirements for engineers.”

“I have been using Ben and his team at Bauhaus for the past few years for our supply of contractors. I have always been impressed with their professional approach and the speed and skill in which they react even when I can’t give them much notice. They have sent me large and small groups of engineers and have never let me down.”

In light of current social distancing measures in place to prevent the spread of Covid-19, Openreach have announced a change in operations. If a home visit is involved, they are no longer willing to install new broadband connections. There's no doubt that this is a sensible decision for a country working together to stave off a rising death toll, but what impact will this have on the UK’s Wi-Fi accessibility?

With the vast majority of people now working from home, efficient broadband connections have never been so imperative, nor so heavily relied on. The government now classes Telecom engineers as key workers, with Openreach stating that priority will be assigned to "key national infrastructure such as the NHS, pharmacies and food retailers and distributors”. Ensuring these critical sites are running smoothly is paramount in the pandemic and is obviously far more important than residential incidents. However, there are hundreds of qualified engineers no doubt eager to work in these financially troubling times. Perhaps they could be utilised on a short-term basis for residential call outs, providing social distancing and hygiene rules can still be adhered to. This would allow for the majority of residential faults to be fixed during this critical time.

Interestingly, Virgin Media have taken a different stance, stating that technicians are still making home visits. This is on the proviso that before a visit, customers confirm via text whether they are self-isolating or exhibiting flu-like symptoms. However, Openreach are continuing to work on street side cabinets, where many problems occur. Therefore, many home Wi-Fi issues can still be resolved. For those who lack access to a broadband or telephone connection, Openreach may still be able to provide solutions.

“The team at Bauhaus listen to their customers and take that extra time to understand exactly what we require in order to meet our customers’ expectations. Through past experience there aren’t many other recruitment agencies out there who will take the time to understand your business in order to get it right first time around. We are happy to recommend Bauhaus Recruitment to other companies.”

“Bauhaus have been supplying permanent & contract staff to me for over 15 years. I have an extremely good relationship with the employees due to their open and honest approach to recruitment. However, the most important factor is delivery. I have always found the staff they supply to be great additions.”

“Bauhaus has proven to be an excellent business partner. Very well organised and offering a great flexibility and understanding of the requirements of the industry, Bauhaus was able to set a process in place for us which has proved to be a great advantage in fulfilling both long-term and short-term resource requirements for our business. We were impressed by their innovative approach to problem-solving and issue-resolution. Not only were they able to supply us with fantastic data engineers, but they were also able to supply fire & security and electrical personnel which helped us significantly on one our key projects.”

“I have been working worked with Bauhaus for over 10 years and they have always provided me with a fantastic service. Bauhaus have ensured the requirements are detailed and have offered candidates that are suitable for the role identified. This has meant a great deal of success in delivering projects utilising the resource Bauhaus have provided. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bauhaus and I shall be utilising their services on forthcoming projects.”
