Testimonial

“ "From the moment I contacted Penny she has done an exceptional job. I was in a difficult situation having lost an upcoming job due to Covid-19, but due to Penny's hard work, commitment and efficiency I was able to secure a new role in under 4 weeks in a very difficult market. I cannot thank Penny enough who has been fantastic to deal with throughout". ”

“ I wanted to pass on to you again my thanks and heartful gratitude for all your hard work in helping me secure my new role. Your sheer determination and patience has helped me secure a partnership role with a firm I have pursued for some time. You encouraged me to persevere and not be afraid to showcase to the firm the great fit we shared, and I am so grateful you kept that up across many difficult months when the health crisis hit. You have been tenacious and thought outside the box, and made suggestions which I know from the firms' feedback have helped get me an offer I am delighted with. Without your grit and determination, and a keen eye to see when a once-in-a-career fit comes along, I wouldn't be starting my new role in 2021. Thank you; I cannot put into words how grateful I am. ”

Testimonial

“ Penny was really helpful throughout the whole recruitment process. She guided me through the interview through to offer stage as it was my first experience of legal recruitment since my TC and I wasn’t sure of the process. Penny pulled out all the stops at the end of the process to help me get my offer and was brilliant at managing my nerves. Penny was always willing to take my calls and answer all of my questions no matter how small they were. She was friendly and gave good advice without being pushy which I appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a recruiter to anyone considering a move. ”
