I highly recommend Greenwich Partners and James Heath. James helped me secure an offer for an Equity Research role at a leading sell-side firm.
James has strong relationships with numerous leading institutions; this was made clear from the high calibre roles that were shared with me as soon as I was in contact with James. When I was invited for interview, the process was smooth and efficient, with numerous interviews being organised over a few weeks. James provided invaluable tailored guidance in advance of the interview process and checked in after each stage of the process.
