Not sure why Claire Tyler reaches out and then I respond to her politely to then ignore my email? Are we running a call centre then? To see how many candidates to harass and meet a target of bothering candidates? Ok then... I dealt with this agency years ago to have done the same thing instead asking me how old I am. Still lacking work ethic and integrity? DONT USE THESE CLOWN! Still haven't learnt a thing or two from this covid situation..

I dealt with Liza and she was brilliant! I emailed one day, she responded the next day, interview the following day and had the job that evening. She was so helpful and lovely! Would highly recommend :)

This is by far the best agency I have dealt with, everyone I have spoken with is so lovely and helpful. Claire Tyler certainly deserves a special mention - she has been fantastic from start to finish. I have also spoken with Carly and Candace who have been equally great. I really cant recommend them enough!
