Dear Rob,
I am writing to thank you for your recent assistance in securing two job offers from two very reputable accounting firms.
From the moment I made first contact you have worked hard to help me secure a position that fulfils my goals. I was particularly impressed with the effort you made to both secure interviews for me swiftly and maintain strong contact to keep me informed during the process. This has not always been my experience with recruitment agencies, but I have felt that Trial Balance Consulting have had both your client’s and my best interests in mind at all times.
I would not hesitate to recommend your services and should I ever need your services in the future, I will not look beyond contacting yourselves.
I wish you every future success.
Great service from Steve, really pleased with the help and support he provided to us in filling our role. He got to understand us and what we were looking for and sent us some great candidates that matched exactly what we wanted. This is the first time we have used Trial Balance, we would definitely use them again and recommend them to other businesses.
The quality of candidates introduced by Trial Balance has been excellent and we’re so pleased to have recruited two of them to join our growing client services team. Working with Trial Balance has been a painless and positive experience. We enjoy working with professional service providers that respond to our questions and requests efficiently and Trial Balance definitely meet our high expectations. And to make things even better, their fees are very competitive too.
I have already expressed, not only to my current employer, how efficient your company is. Your constant contact (Steve and David), updates and willingness to talk and advise me during my term of unemployment was excellent. Trial Balance in my opinion are the best Financial Recruitment Agency in South West and Steve and David are a credit to you.
The team at Trial Balance acted really quickly upon instruction, I had a really good standard of suitable candidates CV’s across my desk within a couple of days and had interviews set up within a week. Elle was great to deal with, she understood what we wanted and made sure we had the right level of contact and the right number of CV’s across my desk, great after sales service as well.
We have been very impressed with the fast and professional service that Trial Balance Consulting have provided us.
This is the first time that we have used their services, they understood our requirements, sent us a small number of suitable candidates CV’s, which enabled us to fill the position within one week.
We used Trial Balance Consulting for the first time in 2018. We were very pleased with their understanding of our needs and their dedication to finding us the right person for our organisation. They got on the case quickly and were very professional to deal with. We will definitely be back to Trial Balance in the future.
Darnells are happy to endorse Trial Balance an excellent recruitment consultancy. Rob Emsley has sourced us many excellent candidates and is always approachable and dependable, giving advice where needed. I would have no hesitation in recommending Rob or Trial Balance.
