I had the pleasure of dealing with Patrick recently. Making the decision to look for a new role is daunting however Patrick made the experience so much easier. I would have been lost without his guidance, advice and expertise throughout the entire process. Patrick reached out to me regularly, he kept me updated and has continued to do so following my successful appointment to a new role. I would not hesitate to recommend Patrick, he has been fab!
What can I say about Chanel Gillen, friendly, funny, highly professional and successfully got me the specific role in the specific company I asked for. Stayed in constant communication throughout the whole process and amazingly helpful with preparation for interviews. Easily the best recruitment consultant I have worked with and would highly recommend to others looking to change their employment.
Fantastic service. Chanel was one of the most helpful and communicative people I have ever encountered. I managed to secure a better role and pay increase. I would highly recommend vanrath and their fantastic representatives for anyone looking a new career prospect.
I would recommend everyone who is thinking of a new career to speak to Vanrath and their fantastic team! Instrumental in this process was Emma Hall. Her knowledge of the market, professional advice and swift acting was impressive. From the first contact, through the application process and in employment, Vanrath are encouraging, supportive and very professional. I can not thank Emma and Vanrath enough for enabling my future career in HR!
