Amiqus

We recently had the pleasure of speaking with Carole-Anne Mccann, Group Recruitment Manager at Arnold Clark, about how the organisation enhanced their hiring process using Amiqus' automated employment reference checks. Facing the challenges of a manual, time-consuming process, Arnold Clark needed a solution that could keep up with their high-volume hiring needs. Here's what they've achieved by using Amiqus: - Immediate dispatch of reference requests (down from 3-5 days) - Processed over 320 references in just one week - Hundreds of hours saved on admin work - Faster onboarding and improved hiring timelines Curious to learn more about how automation made a difference?

How will you stand up? It wasn't long ago that I sat in the Scottish Refugee Council offices in Glasgow to talk about the partnership with Amiqus. We have committed £100k of funding to support the fantastic work delivered by the charity. This was at a time when Rwanda flights were still on the table, amongst a range of other Government-backed policies to step up the so-called 'hostile environment'. I was really inspired when Dr Sabir Zazai (OBE, FRSE) talked about how Amiqus' financial contribution was important but really the value was in having an organisation stand up against the prevailing anti-asylum rhetoric and publicly declare their support. Looking at the violence across the UK over the past weeks, it is perhaps unsurprising that we have gotten to this place. My hope is that out of the horror and hate, perhaps some small good might emerge in the form of individuals and organisations understanding the urgent need to also take a stand. At Amiqus, our next effort is to 'Zip Slide the Clyde'. This will see the team brave a 100ft zip line across the Clyde. If you're disgusted by recent events, you can counter-protest by making a donation to our Just Giving page. https://lnkd.in/eJ4F-D7P Better yet, reach out to the team at the Scottish Refugee Council and see if your organisation could help for the longer term. All of us are just a set of bad circumstances away from being asylum seekers or refugees. Your support is needed now more than ever 💙 #scottishrefugeecouncil #zipslidetheclyde #refugeeswelcome #purposeledbusiness #supportrefugees #humanrights

As part of our team learning and development programme, we were delighted to welcome client and friend of Pike + Bambridge, Callum Murray from Amiqus, to our Edinburgh office last week to share insights about his and Amiqus' growth journey, and what he's learned along the way. A big thank you to Callum for his time.

For Conveyancers in England and Wales: you must be familiar with the term "Safe Harbour". By following specific digital identity check protocols, you meet your duty under Safe Harbour, ensuring HM Land Registry won't pursue recourse claims against you for inadequate identity checks in fraudulent transactions. Using a UK government-accredited Identity Service Provider (IDSP) like Amiqus can help you fulfil the obligations stated in the HM Land Registry Practice Guide 81. Take a look at our blog to find out how to achieve Safe Harbour: https://bit.ly/3tVArIo #Conveyancers #LawFirms #Legal #DigitalIdentity #Compliance
