Our Testimonials

Candidate: Head of HR – Blippar

I could not speak any higher of my interactions with you. From the beginning, you built trust by always doing what you said you would do. If you said you would ask a question, or get back to me, you always did. And in a timely way too.

When I spoke to you, I felt heard.

I do believe that you understood the brief that you were working to well, and you were able to convey it very openly and accurately with me – as became more and more evident through the process.

Having interacted with many recruitment agencies, I will say without a doubt that you have been the most professional recruiter that I have had the pleasure of working with as a candidate.

I would not hesitate in recommending you to other candidates, neither  would I hesitate to you consider engaging you from a company perspective.

I think the discussion around interviews was particularly good, in terms of practical tips that might seem obvious having interviewed a lot of people but definitely aren’t obvious coming straight out of school or university! I thought the ability to draw on real examples from both your and Helen’s experience made it feel a lot more tangible and relatable. A good overview of the process of applying to jobs and helped reduce some of the uncertainty that can be involved. Thanks

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.

Mike has been a great asset to our son over many months while he worked out what he wanted to do after graduating. Not only was Mike consistently available as a sounding board and source of ideas but he also helped with interview practice and planning and preparation for Assessment Centres. It makes a huge difference having a non-family member for a young job seeker to talk to, an external perspective is very valuable (even if expressing the same opinion as a parent!)

Candidate: Marketing Communications Manager – RDA

I had a fantastic experience working with Mike at Best Talent Solutions during my job search for a marketing role. He was incredibly supportive, encouraging, and professional, taking the time to understand my skills and career goals. Unlike previous recruiters I’ve worked with, Mike provided personalised support throughout the process. The communication was prompt and clear, making me feel valued and well-informed every step of the way. Overall, I highly recommend Mike and Best Talent Solutions for anyone seeking a dedicated and effective recruitment service.

Mike was recommended to us with a glowing reference.  Working with our daughter he built up her confidence and helped her broaden her job search.  He was always available when she needed him for support even at weekends . He helped her prepare for interviews and  kept the journey of job searching positive even when there were knocks.  We would definitely recommend him for career coaching as he has a good affinity and understanding of the younger generation.
