Couldn’t recommend JH Recruitment enough! Was struggling to find a job for about 3 weeks and then got a call from JHR where I spoke to the lovely Ellisha. Had a meeting the day after and within a week I had and an interview and got the job!

I would 100% recommend JHR. Everyone was welcoming and helpful. I felt a lot of effort was made for me and a lot of one to one time was spent with me. No other recruitment agency has given me an experience as personal as this.....
Sophie
A very professional approach by all Consultants but also extremely down to earth and friendly at the same time..... The right kind of support provided before the interview as to how to answer questions and obtain the desirable results.....
Mohammed
A very good service and the level of communication was very good. I was treated as an individual rather than a number!

Whether I had got the role or not I feel Jenn has been excellent to deal with and I will recommend that my current employer uses JHR to fill my role once I’m gone!
