I've been with this agency for one week and suffice to say,I'll be looking for work elsewhere. There's little to no communication. They'll say you have work but when you try to contact them, you wont hear from them about the job they had you lined up for.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dom, who has always kept me updated with suitable roles. He has a fantastic understanding of peoples requirements and delivered promptly and professionally. I cant praise Dom enough; extremely warm and persistent in getting things done; whilst also keeping me up-to-date with the entire process, displaying he had my best interests in mind. I would highly recommend.

I had Dominic as my recruitment consultant he was great helping me land my first graduate job during the covid pandemic mayhem! He helped me with pre-interview training and gave useful advice on how to stand out from the crowd. The company he introduced me to was a great fit for me and I'm excited to start my career in Sales! He was always willing to chat and check in with me during the process so thankyou Dom for helping a very worried graduate begin her career!

Where do I start....... Marcus and his team are very professional and very helpful, they certainly made me feel comfortable when I visited their offices . I also cannot thank Marcus enough for placing me with a Construction Company that is very close to home and with people who are great, I really had given up after being made redundant and wasn't expecting to find a job so soon but did and that's thanks to Marcus!! Keep up the good work Premier.
