Fika Recruitment was born out of the necessity to bring something new and fresh to the Recruitment Industry during the world changing events of 2020. There is absolutely no doubt that the world has changed forever. Now is the ideal time to bring a new concept to the Recruitment Market: Fika Recruitment - A Swedish Philosophy with a Mancunian Ideal Our Swedish Philosophy: Fika is a concept, a state of mind, an attitude and an important part of Swedish culture. Many Swedes consider that it is almost essential to make time for Fika every day. It means making the time for friends and colleagues to share a cup of coffee (or tea) and a little something to eat. Fika is proven to increase productivity, happiness in the workplace, it promotes free thinking, it promotes the sharing of ideas and it is also scientifically proven to be massively beneficial for mental health. Fika is a ritual. Even the mighty Volvo plant stops for Fika, all Swedes consider it important to make time to stop and socialize: to take a pause. It refreshes the brain and it strengthens relationships. And it makes good business sense: firms have better teams and are more productive where Fika is institutionalized. Psychologist Ron Friedman states that human evolution has built or brains for short bursts of concentrated activity, not for day-long marathons. He recommends two fifteen minute daily breaks, one being “FIKA!” Our Mancunian Ideal: We are based in Failsworth, Manchester. Manchester is a city of massive Industrial heritage and the Mancunian work ethic has been a point of pride since the Industrial Revolution, when the hard working men and women in the factories that lined the city were coined “Worker Bees”. It’s since this time that Manchester has adopted the Bee as its motif and so have we! We here at Fika Recruitment embody both: a hard working company with a more relaxed and considered approach.
