LAUREN – HIRING MANAGER
I had a great experience with Sandy during my interview process. our first interaction was professional, supportive, and genuinely interested in helping me succeed. Her communication was clear and timely, and she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciated her friendly approach and the helpful insights shared along the way. Thank you, Sandy for making this such a positive experience!
MISHKAH – FINANCIAL CONTROLLER
Sandy was so supportive during our process of hiring. The role we were looking for was more of a generalist role and therefore not specific to our industry, however she still took the time to get to understand our culture as a business and to understand our very specific need. No matter the budget constraints and challenges we faced along the way with candidates, Sandy never gave up to secure us a candidate and was very transparent with candidates and the challenges along the way.
NICOLE – HIRING MANAGER
Katharina Thieme-Schiess is an exceptional agent who goes above and beyond to find her clients "UNICORNS". Her deep knowledge and expertise shine through in every interaction, making complex matters feel effortless. Most importantly, her thorough communication and dedication to her clients and candidates make her standout in her field. Katharina isn't just great she's extraordinary!
SHARON – HEAD OF FINANCE AND HR
Brigitte is great in finding the correct and suitable candidates, it is up to the candidate proof them self's and perform to the specific requirements set out by the employer. In the case of Lerato that was great in her interview and presented herself well, unfortunately the candidate is not performing to the standards required, we are busy with additional training and mentoring to lift Lerato to the standards required.
JOHAN – HIRING MANAGER
I had the pleasure of working with Angelique Beck during a critical phase of my job seeking, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Angelique is an exceptional recruitment specialist—professional, proactive, and genuinely committed to finding the right fit for both the company and the candidate. What sets Angelique apart is her ability to understand not only the technical requirements of a role but also the nuances of team dynamics and company culture. She communicates clearly and consistently, keeping all stakeholders informed and engaged throughout the process. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and strategic approach to talent acquisition made a significant impact on our hiring success.
