I recently registered with Vanrath and met with their consultant Aisling Bishop to discuss my CV and previous work experiences. I was very impressed at the range of employers that Vanrath works with, the roles that they have on their books and the service that they provide to job seekers. I feel confident that Aisling and the Vanrath team will work to find me a post that fits my interests as well as my experiences.

I would highly recommend Vanrath to anyone looking for a new job.

Hannah, my recruitment specialist was at all times professional, available and extremely knowledgeable. From my initial first phone call to Vanrath, Hannah gave me great advice on my CV, talked me through interview prep, and followed up with feedback. Hannah negotiated a fantastic contact on my behalf and now I am very excited to be starting my new job soon.

Thank you Hannah for all your hard work behind the scenes and making me feel like your only client.

I am currently based on the south coast of England and looking to relocate to Northern Ireland and needed a job to make it possible. It may have appeared to be a tall order but Alannah was amazing. From the initial conversation her calm, honest and reassuring manner was an absolute delight and nothing was too much trouble. 6 weeks on and I now have the job I wanted but never thought I would get and it's all thanks to Alannah - I cannot recommend her, or Vanrath, highly enough.

Thank you to the fantastic people at VANRATH especially Shannon McGrath and Shannon McKinley. They consulted initially with me to determine the best possible roles to offer. Always knowledgeable and professional they offered help and guidance throughout the interview process to securing a brilliant job Both recruitment officers were friendly approachable and encouraging, making the process much easier.
