" I have been liaising with Kate and she has been excellent. I have got my last two jobs through Kate at Hewett. Kate is a good listener and always keeps in touch when she is arranging an interview and following through the process afterwards. 10 all round and I would recommend Hewett Recruitment to others."

"My first contact was with Lisa by telephone. She was happy, friendly, helpful and very positive. I then spoke to Millie who was very kind, understanding, she listened and was interested in me finding the most suitable and comfortable role with my skills. She explained the process and was very helpful, friendly and very nice to speak to. Millie went out of her way to help me and get me a job. Also payroll who emailed me was very helpful. After starting work I received a text from Lisa asking how I was and this made me feel like I’m not alone. It’s been a very positive good experience and I would rate all of it 10 in all areas."

"The communication from Anthony has been excellent. One thing I appreciated from the start was he outlined how he approached dealing with the Employer/Client. It was made clear that the Employer would be contacted every couple of days for an update. From my perspective there is nothing worse than not knowing what is going on, so to hear this was very positive indeed. I would receive either a phone call or an email from Anthony with an update, even if that update were simply to say, “still waiting to hear. We initially had a 15-20 minute phone conversation where I outlined my requirements and salary expectations. Anthony has shown he listened and the vacancies put forward have been roles of interest."

"I would score a 10 out of 10 for service. It was all done nice and easy - very quick also. I would recommend a friend etc. Communication has been good, as well as knowledge around the industry I chose. Been good with my needs as well, as I suffer from anxiety. All has been brilliant. Thankyou!"
"All has been brilliant. Thankyou!"
