Feedback from some of our Recruitment clients

 I have worked with Chris Reid since 2010 and come to know him well over that time both as a professional and a person. My trust in him is implicit and I highly recommend engaging with Chris to either source your next great talent hire or to work with him to support your own career progression.

Chris comes at things from a different angle making him unique in my professional experience. His focus on the person, their values and culture fit - as well as their inherent skills and experience - goes deeper and adds additional valuable layers to his recruitment process compared with your garden variety recruiter who simply plays the numbers game. I have successfully recruited over twenty staff through him over the years.

As a recruit myself Chris has supported me into career changing roles, and is helping me in my current search for my next leadership role. His insight into the recruiter mindset and his professional coaching on my messaging and approach to the market has provided me with new tools regarding a structured recruitment process and systems approach. Chris has also fine tuned my mental approach to candidacy and how best to qualify and respond to potential new roles. Essentially he has become my personal coach and mentor which is proving invaluable.

If you want to take a differentiated, best fit, value driven approach to either recruiting or being recruited - I highly recommend working with Chris. 

 Chris is an exceptional recruiter and easily one of the best I’ve worked with. What I admire about Chris’s approach is that he prioritises finding good matches. He gains a deep understanding of a candidate’s skills and aspirations, and will only approach them with opportunities where there is the potential for strong alignment and mutual benefit.

Chris also goes out of his way to help candidates prepare, provide them with feedback, and keep them informed throughout the process. In addition to his prompt communication and responsiveness, he demonstrates a level of diligence and professionalism that is uncommon in his field.

I approached Chris a few weeks back looking for a job in the market and I was immediately blown away with his interaction skills and the way he handled the call to the extent that I was absolutely sure I was heading in the right track with the right recruiter.
