Our Testimonials

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 gave me so much help and support whilst looking for a job after my apprenticeship. We had multiple video calls together where he took me over how to write a good CV, how to prepare for interviews, through to the aceing the interviews and asking all the right questions. The support didn’t stop there, Mike suggested new ways to find roles and how to build a network. He also took the time to learn about any companies I was applying for to ensure he could provide tailored advice – he really went above and beyond. My confidence whilst working with Mike increased massively and, with his help, I managed to secure a job that I love in a great company!

Lincoln Clarke – CEO, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard

Without exception each new member of the team has made an excellent contribution to our organisation thus far, and that can be put down, in no small part, to Mike’s efforts. I’d have no hesitation in recommending him.

When I got put in touch with Mike, I had already been searching for a job for 7 months. I was feeling frustrated and very down about how little luck I had in that time. Mike gave me my confidence back in myself. With his expertise, he helped me prepare for interviews, made sure my CV showcased my experience, and reassured me during my applications. After only a few months of working with Mike, I got an offer! The guidance and mock interviews we did together were so helpful, they kept me in a calm and positive mindset walking into that final interview panel. Now I get to go back to working in a job I am passionate about. Thank you again Mike!

Candidate: Head of Operations & Commercial – Portsmouth Historic Dockyard

This has been my first experience of working with a recruitment consultant. I have been extremely impressed with Mike’s communication, flexibility and determination to fulfil a difficult brief

Liz Hawkins – Director, Hawkinsport

This was a new role within the business and Mike did extensive initial questioning with regards to the role including understanding personalities involved – more than we had experienced with any other recruitment company.  We felt very prepared as an interviewer, for each candidate, and also felt that the candidates too were well briefed.   Overall a very good experience and would not hesitate to use again, just that the other candidate who approached via other method was extremely well-skilled – we would certainly hope to work with you again on any future roles within Hawkinsport. Felt service levels exceeded our expectations.
