“I just wanted to say a final thanks with the CV and covering letter advice, the change in response has been amazing. Two interviews, another three possible this week and next, plus a job offer to be negotiated on.”
Testimonial
“Thank you so much for today I did find it very beneficial, lots of helpful tips so thank you. It was great to communicate on a professional level with someone about my career.”
Testimonial
“In December 2009, I was referred to REC4 by my local job centre. As I was already receiving outplacement support from a leading firm I was sceptical about receiving more advice.
In the hour that I spent with Colin I was able to really sharpen my focus on what to look for and then to get recruitment consultants to focus on me.
He explained in great detail the how consultants worked and how to be 'front of mind'.
I worked throughout Christmas! and by week 1 in January the phone started ring from the consultants. By the end of January 4/5 the interviews started coming, at one stage averaging 2 a week! And top corporate names too.
I was offered a job on my second interview.”
Testimonial
“I wanted to let you know that I found a job as an administrative receptionist in school, I start soon after the Christmas holidays. I cannot thank you enough for all advice especially the interview techniques, I followed your advice and the manager said I gave a great interview.
I am definitely over my phobia of interviews now. Thank you again.”
