The client service from my consultant, Ricky, has been great—so quick to respond and incredibly helpful during the interview process and in the lead-up to my start date for any questions I had.

I had a great experience with the recruiter Aaron. He did a wonderful job in following up with me and making sure I was always updated. Even when the company took a few days to give feedback, he was frequently pinging his contacts from the company and keeping me posted. Aaron is one of the most empathetic recruiters I've ever met in my career. I had the best recruiting experience ever.

Theo helped me get my first job as a contractor. He explained to me in detail every step of how to be a contractor and sorted all bureaucracy processes. Even after I got the job, he was always responsive to my questions. I really recommend Theo if you are chasing your next job.

Ich hatte eine großartige Erfahrung mit dem Personalvermittler Aaron. Er hat sich sehr gut um mich gekümmert und dafür gesorgt, dass ich immer auf dem Laufenden war. Selbst als das Unternehmen einige Tage brauchte, um eine Rückmeldung zu geben, hat er häufig seine Kontakte im Unternehmen kontaktiert und mich auf dem Laufenden gehalten. Aaron ist einer der einfühlsamsten Personalvermittler, die ich in meiner Karriere je getroffen habe. Ich hatte die beste Recruiting-Erfahrung überhaupt.
