Conor at Vanrath was very helpful and supportive in securing a new job. The funding for my previous job was becoming less secure and Conor helped me make the leap into a new permanent role. It was a quick process and a bit of luck with timing. I have spoke to other staff and Vanrath and have always found them helpful as well.

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!
