Our Testimonials

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.

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!

Mike was a huge help and resource for me throughout the turbulent process of securing a graduate job post my Masters’ degree. Beginning with providing advice on my CV content and structure and helping with finding job opportunities and then progressing on to helping research specific companies I applied for and aiding with interview practice by thinking of possible questions, Mike helped me to feel prepared and ready to face the entire application process. Crucially, his supportive and personalised approach meant that I always felt able to talk to Mike about any issues I was having with applications, and this helped to give me the confidence to succeed and secure my graduate role and I wish to thank Mike again for his invaluable support.

Candidate: Head of Major Donor Fundraising – RDA

It was a pleasure meeting with Mike and talking through this new opportunity throughout the recruitment process.  His communication style is clear and direct and I greatly appreciated his timely feedback and encouragement along the way.  I would absolutely recommend Mike to any HR teams looking for support with their recruitment.

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.

I found that the sessions being interactive was very useful, as it allowed questions to be answered as we went making it relatable to everyone despite having different career paths. It really helped with understanding about becoming the 1% to stand out when applying for jobs, and how to prepare properly for interviews. Thanks
