Totally lack of competence. First they send me to the wrong place, then didn't send me the details for the second meeting. No one can answer how they count your hours. Changed my pay rate after i start working.

I've applied for a job with them, went to the interview but never got a response back. They are very unprofessional.
Update : now they are claiming to try to call me back a few times (that's a lie) so basically the agend never heard about sending a bloody email (he had my email address because we have exchanged emails)
A senior position, a job vacancy that was paying over 35.000 per year, but they can't send a email
So rk with them,

Having been made redundant following a Covid reorg at my company, Gareth from E3R contacted me through LinkedIn with a job opportunity. He supported me throughout the application and interview process and I subsequently secured the position. Communication from Gareth throughout the process was excellent and I would highly recommend E3R to other job-seekers - he is clearly a dedicated recruitment specialist at the very top of his game! Thank you Gareth for all that you have done to help me back into work!!

Wasted my time never got back to me on a job told me to wait until Friday. So I lost other job offers and they still haven't rang me. I suggest people take the business else where one star is too much.
