Testimonials

Mike has provided an excellent calibre of staff for reasonable agency fees. He has always been able to find people with a good personality fit as well as the right technical skills, even when our technical skills have been hard to find. He doesn't pester with calls or unsolicited CVs when you don't have a requirement and when you do need staff, you only get good quality, relevant CVs to consider. All of this has resulted in him becoming our preferred supplier for recruitment & I can't recommend him highly enough!

Tim is a very experienced recruitment consultant. He has a great ability to know what is happening in the market place and find very specialist skills. He is very personable and produces great results.

Mike has provided IT Recruitment services to me at my last three employers, and has delivered results every time. What really makes Mike stand out though is the honest way he does business. I have never had any issues with the way he operates; he has been a true professional in every way, even in difficult circumstances. I would (and do) recommend Mike's services to anyone.

Working in HR, in Software Development, I get inundated with requests from IT Recruiters. I am very selective about who I use and it is therefore testament to Tim's abilities, service, personal skills and expertise that I have continued to use him on all our vacancies for the last 5 years. I would recommend Tim to anyone who has IT roles to fill. Our roles are often beyond niche and Tim has found us some perfect candidates. I particularly like that he is not a pushy sales-driven recruiter, which is very rare in this industry and one of the reasons I always give him my business.

I have worked with Mike on both sides of the recruitment fence. What made me first invite Mike to recruit for us was my experience with him when I was looking to change jobs many years ago. Out of the 4 or 5 agencies I was talking to I found them all to be unreliable at communicating with me, some had pretty questionable integrity in roles that they put me forward for and none were particularly pleasant to deal with. The contrast to Mike could not have been greater; his integrity and honesty are absolutely unquestionable and he is unusually knowledgeable in dealing with the roles that he recruits. I reasoned that if he worked so effectively with candidates he would also do an excellent job for the companies he recruits for; I have always found this to be true. I have retained Mike now in every company that I have subsequently moved to and I can recommend him without reservation as an exceptional and talented recruiter.

While I was Support manager for Freeway Commerce, a number of new positions became available. We used Tim (Applause IT) to recruit numerous new staff members who have all integrated well into the team. The people who were provided are all still employed by Freeway Commerce and are great assets to the business. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim (Applause IT) for future recruitment opportunities.
