What people say about Victoria

  • ​Just a quick one to say that Victoria was instrumental in helping me get my current role. She was brilliant in guiding me through the recruitment process, helped me prepare for every stage of the interview and took a genuine interest in how I was getting on at all stages of the process. She regularly asked for updates and showed true dedicated and professionalism throughout. Her attention to detail and follow up are both exceptional and I am extremely grateful for the assistance she gave me.

    Michael

  • ​Victoria was kind, friendly and ensured I was taking the right steps and gave me advice regarding any subject which I asked about, which helped guide me into the right role. After she recommended my current workplace, I am very happy in comparison to my former, and I'm extremely grateful of the hard work Victoria put in for me.

    Zak

  • ​I can fully recommend Victoria as recruiter. she was always listening and finding the best option for me. Even if I didn't like the job which she found with the week she was able to find me better position. Victoria is the best recruiter which I ever worked with.

    Kamila

  • ​Victoria is the best recruiter I have ever met, she has found me a perfect position within 3 days and was there for me every time I had a questions or needed any other help.

    Anna

  • ​Victoria was brilliant, I got a job from my first interview. I also recommended a colleague who had been made redundant and she quickly secured him a role too. I also passed her information to another colleague but I believe he found a job through other avenues. I can’t recommend Victoria highly enough.

    Suzanne

  • ​Victoria was incredibly helpful, patient and ultimately successful in helping me find a new role. I won’t lie I generally have a poor view of recruitment staff, as more often than not they just want to shoehorn people into roles they don’t ultimately want or understand just for their fee. Victoria however was a delight and I can’t thank her enough for all she did for me.
