Our Testimonials

The most useful aspect of the workshop came through the support given regarding assessments and interview tips. The information regarding questions that I could potentially ask employers at the end or during the interview was extremely helpful and definitely something I would look to incorporate if given an interview somewhere. Furthermore, I also found studies and research that you included very interesting, e.g. the use of standing up while on a telephone interview to increase energy levels. Very insightful, with key information and tips which will no doubt improve my employability chances. Thanks,

Wow, thank you so much for all of that research and for following up with your contacts, it’s extremely kind of you! It’s been a bit of a busy week again, the practice I applied to on Monday morning, invited me for an interview which I had this morning (the last couple of days was me frantically getting the rest of my work into a portfolio for that) and they’ve offered me the job!! Starting next Wednesday! A bit of a whirlwind week!!! Thank you so much for all of your help! Best wishes,

Candidate: Operations Director – VTG

The process from my perspective was excellent and it is one of the best candidate experiences that I have had. You always called when you said you would, and I you really understood the brief of the role, and the culture of the business, which helped me greatly in my preparation. I think the communications were spot on and you kept me in the loop at all times, with regards to the process. Your knowledge of the business and advice/guidance were invaluable. I can honestly say that you are head and shoulders above your competitors, as you add that personal touch, which seems to be lacking these days elsewhere. Far too many recruiters treat the candidates like a commodity, but don’t fully understand that they do so much damage to their credibility. I don’t believe that you need to make any changes, as it’s your attention to detail and personal style that shine through. If I am in a position to recruit in the future, you will certainly be at the top of my list and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to anyone who wants the job done right.

Learning about the power of LinkedIn and networking more broadly. I had always assumed that this was something that naturally came a few years down the line. Two very informative sessions which extensively covered the job application process. A good insight for someone looking to begin their career with some invaluable bits of advice from an experienced recruiter. Thanks,

Lisa Davies – Head of Communication & Insight, RDA

We were under under-resourced, and under pressure to fill several roles in a tough fundraising market. Working with Mike, and Best Talent Solutions, made the whole recruitment process as smooth and effective as possible. Mike supported us throughout, kept the pace up, provided great advice and found us three excellent candidates. On top of that, he’s a genuinely nice person to work with – thank you Mike!

Richard Hyde – CEO of Brian Hyde Limited

Enjoyed working with you, Mike – your efforts were tireless on our behalf and I am sure I was not the easiest of clients!
