What our candidates say about us
Rosie Collins - Digital Planner
Sarah and her team are brilliant! They really took a genuine interest in my career, paid close attention to my requirements and matched my experience perfectly to every job they sent my CV too. I really appreciated their prompt feedback on the progression of my applications and their willingness to get the best job going for me. They are a recruitment agency that you can really trust. I feel as though they really understand where I am in my career and where I want to go so I will definitely be using them again in the future.
Graham Ellor - Planning Director
I'm not usually a fan of recruitment agencies but I'm a big fan of Direct Recruitment. They're quite simply the best. Apart from being extremely professional and on the ball, they consistently take a genuine interest in you as an individual and in your career. I always recommend them to people I know.
Ashley Patterson - Chief Strategy Officer
I have worked with Sarah and the team for almost 20 years both as a candidate and recruiter and in both cases I am always hugely impressed at the depth of understanding and insight they bring to the process. They are immersed in our industry and are fantastic at building and maintaining relationships with both candidates and employers. This means they really focus on fit between the two parties before offering opportunities and candidates.
Mark Thomas - Senior Marketing Manager
I didn't expect them to work so proactively and tirelessly on my behalf. I was most impressed by their genuine interest in wanting to understand more about me, and identifying new roles and organisations that would balance my personality and interests with my career aspirations. Each of the briefs that Direct Recruitment presented to me were genuinely appealing, rewarding and offered the career opportunities I was looking for.
Sarah Sullivan - DM Manager
I was really impressed with Direct Recruitment when I was job hunting due to redundancy last year. They were encouraging about my skills and experience during this difficult time and constantly kept me updated about opportunities. I really appreciated their proactive approach. They also gave me honest and constructive feedback after interviews. I was signed up with a number of agencies but Direct Recruitment were by far the best and secured me a 3 month temporary contract which led to a permanent position. I have recommended them to a number of colleagues and friends.
Daniel Roylance - Campaign Manager
I have had the pleasure of being in touch with Direct Recruitment for a number of years now, so I can confidently state that they are a fantastic recruitment agency to work with. My current role was organised by Direct Recruitment and the whole experience from that first phone call introducing me to the role, to the final call outlining my job offer was very well organised and most importantly a pleasurable experience. If ever I decide to move on I know Direct Recruitment will be at the top of my list of consultants to contact, for the reasons outlined above and for their fantastic client list!
Kirsten Sluggett - Data Planner
Looking for a job in a time where there has been quite a bit of uncertainty, Direct Recruitment were great as reassuring me on jobs in my industry and giving me the confidence to start looking. A very seamless and quick process, Direct Recruitment had a good range of suitable roles and were very professional at organising and preparing me for the interviews. The end result was fantastic, leaving me in a great position of having a choice on where I wanted to go, allowing me to choose a company I am now very happy at. Now 6 months later the role is very fulfilling and I'm learning lots through working on new projects and clients.
