Plexus Resource Solutions 2025 graduate opportunities

Company Company profile

We are a hungry, young start-up who have quickly become established as one of the leaders in London’s blockchain and fintech space. Run by two super high achieving recruitment specialists with over 10 years of experience each and unquestionable track records of building and scaling high performance recruitment teams, you will gain experience of working with the very best in the industry. We have been trading since May 2017 and already at 7 employees, with a goal of 13 by the summer. We are a friendly bunch, and care hugely about the family that we have here – this is not an old school recruitment environment! – we are more trainers and jeans, than suits and ties. We have a fun office environment based in Waterloo right opposite the station – a sense of humour is a must.

Description:

What made you apply to Plexus, Brandon?
I liked the sound of Plexus as they are niche and work in an exciting new industry. My Dad had recently spoke to me about Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency, so I was really interested to know more about it. I had been told by a friend not to go into Recruitment after he had a bad experience, but I thought Plexus sounded different to what he had told me.

How did you find the interview process with Shaun and Zeth? Were they terrifying?
They were both so different and not terrifying thankfully. Shaun was the tough one, but still very friendly and told me a lot about Plexus. Zeth was really energetic and again super friendly. He was not hung up on my CV and experience, Zeth was focused on my personality and that I would fit in to the team. Culture is very important to him. My interview turned into a 2-hour chat - I was new to London, as well as the working world, so they wanted to know all about me and tell me everything about Plexus.

Has the role lived up to your expectation so far?
Without a doubt, 100%! More so in fact, it’s been even better than I thought it would be. Shaun and Zeth were very realistic about good days and bad days in Recruitment, but if you put the hard work in and do what you need to do, you will have mostly good days. And the good days feel really good!

How have you found your training? Is there anything you already feel developed in?
The first week was really tough, it took me a couple of days to get my head around everything, but everyone was very patient with me. I have asked a lot of questions and everyone is always there to listen and answer and wanting to help me, as well as giving great advice too. I feel comfortable asking questions whatever they are. Development wise, I am now calling candidates and qualifying them for roles and feeling confident doing this. The first ever business call I made, I was shaking. I have come a long way!

What is the best part of working at Plexus? Is it sitting next to me?
No Claire, unfortunately it’s not. It is the people though, everyone has made me feel very welcome and I feel privileged to be working in the same office as such high achievers and great personalities. I like our intense and hardworking, but fun office environment!

What is your 3 year career plan?
Earn lots of money for the company and myself, save up as much as possible and live a nice comfortable life in London. When the time is right, I would like to climb the Plexus career ladder but only when Shaun and Zeth think I am ready. I want to progress by proving myself and learning as much as possible. I also want to be a better version of myself 3 years ago.

FAQs

Plexus founders Zeth and Shaun met back in 2008 when they worked together in the Tech recruitment field. After years of working together, they decided to collaborate and set up Plexus as a remedy to the growing talent gulf within Blockchain, Cryptocurrency and FinTech. They are genuinely passionate about the tech that they recruit for and the people that work with them.

As a Trainee Graduate working at Plexus, you can expect to be pushed to achieve your highest potential and we invite driven individuals who wish to join a fast paced, fast moving, fast growing, ultra-ambitious organisation to join us.
