Our Testimonials

I’ve known Mike for many years in a professional capacity so jumped at the chance to engage him when my son graduated and started to look for his first step on the career ladder.

Mike very quickly gained the confidence of my son by empathising with his goals and aspirations whilst also dishing out the cold realities of the employment market. He never sugar coated anything and always left my son motivated and enthusiastic to follow his guidance and recommendations. However, Mike was at his most effective when the inevitable knock-backs and rejections occurred. He re-installs confidence and determination and is equally effective when helping to prepare for interviews and assessment centres.

Mike also has a sharp understanding of how young executives get hired and what employers look for in CV’s and covering letters whilst having a manner which connects well with young people.

Overall, Best Talent is a go coaching business which is truly effective and very reasonably priced.

Thank you Mike.

Candidate: Sales & Marketing Director – Burbidge

Overall I felt the service was very, very good, with Mike going the extra mile to keep me informed of progress, however small, throughout the process and during my lengthy notice period from my previous employer.

Mike helped me finesse my CV so that it really highlighted my career achievements and would stand out from the crowd. Having been in a job for 5 years since school, I was pretty nervous about an interview. We went through the job description, Mike asked potential questions and we discussed the answers and examples I could give. It was hugely beneficial, I walked into the interview prepared and as confident as I could be. 1 interview, 1 job offer… Thank you so much!

Candidate: Director of CMI – Cargotec

Mike’s approach was more intelligent, open-minded and inquisitive than other search professionals. I felt much less of a commodity, and much more of a partner in a collaborative and trusted relationship. All of this he reinforced with transparent, discrete and timely communication. An excellent service.

Hi Mike hope you are well? Just wanted to let you know today I got an offer for a Digital Marketing role starting in a few weeks!! The contract isn’t going to come through for a couple of weeks. I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all the work you’ve done for me over the past few months, I wouldn’t have got to this stage without you 🙂

Candidate: Junior Account Executive – The Media People

Mike always made sure that I was never left wondering where I stood. And was always there for me whenever I had questions, whether he could answer them right away, or take them to the hiring company. Mike really gave off the impression that he’d always go the extra mile. I think that Mike was very unbiased, and fair sat between his client and myself. But speaking from a candidate perspective, I could tell that he was going the extra mile to secure the perfect position for me. Fantastic service! I had quite a few experiences with recruitment consultants during my job search, and no one really gave off the impression that they wanted the best proposition possible for me quite like Mike did. I can’t really think of any improvements really! Mike was amazing at helping me secure such an amazing position.
