Dont just take our word for it ...see what our clients and candidates have to say about us.

Benchmark,
Just thought I’d drop you a quick line to tell you how things are going here. I’ve just come out of a 30 min massage session paid for by the company and taken during office hours - all in the name of employee satisfaction! On Friday at 4pm we all downed tools and had a couple of beers, bought for us by the Directors. I can’t help but wonder if maybe this role isn’t salaried, as no-one could ever get paid for this kind of job…..it’s a dream come true! All in all, I wanted to thank you all for your help and support during a very difficult period for me, but you resurrected my self confidence and made me realize that I am worthy of working in a company as great as this.
I wish you all the success in the world, but you don’t really need any help with that
Love to you all xxx

Dear Louisa
Thank you so much for helping us to appoint our new Fundraising and Events Organiser.
After having fought shy of recruitment agencies for many years, I found the whole experience a revelation. Not only was the way that you worked with us really positive in drawing out what I was looking for and what the job entailed, but also the rest of the process seemed to go very smoothly and at every step pf the way both you and Amy were incredibly responsive, friendly and helpful.
Last of all, the standard of candidates you found for me to interview was very high and I am confident that we have appointed and absolute cracker! Thank you very much indeed and good luck with your business in the future.
Yours Sincerely
Bridget Evans

Dear Louisa,
Just thought I'd drop you a quick note to thank you again for your assistance in providing excellent candidates for both our Administrator and Business Development roles.
I have to say that my past knowledge of recruitment companies was not very favourable untill I used your service.
I am used to being swamped with CV's of candidates who simply do not fit the bill but it seems that other agencies think along the lines of 'If i give loads of CV's then one is bound to fit'
The approach you adopt where you gain a knowledge of a company and its culture then only provide CV's of candidates who not only can do the bill but fit the culture too saves me valuable time and effort. For that I cannot thank you enough.
As you know I usually do 2 interviews where the first is an informal chat and the second is more structured with some tough questions thrown in, I didn't even need a second interview because your candidate was perfect for the position.
Many thanks for your help and I wish you every success for the future
Best regards
Paul Wright

Friendly, professional, astute, experienced, dedicated, helpful & easy on the eyes - the list goes on & on! They got me a cracking job after just TWO WEEKS!
I had signed up to virtually every recruitment agency in
Their job descriptions are invaluable, as are the 'helpful tips & information' sheets that they provide, particularly if you are new or inexperienced to this job hunting lark.
The girls are cheerful, willing to help & a pleasure to work with. They are most certainly set for great things, especially if they keep on pushing those benchmarks!
Cheers guys!

Dear Louisa/Amy
Thank you both for a consistently attentive service, Phil and I have really enjoyed working with you and we have found you both professional and personable.
Recruiting the right person for our Business Development role was imperative at this stage in our growth and with the caliber of candidates you gave us, we found two employees who were perfect.
The services you offer are above and beyond any agency we have come across, firstly with the 8 weeks 100% refund (which instills in us that you have great belief in yourselves), and secondly being able to use your interview facilities and out of hours rooms made the interview process so much easier, you had set the room up with refreshments, profiled all the candidates and laid out the schedules and CV's on our arrival - this was above and beyond our expectations and reflective of the extra effort you put in for your clients
I wish you every success and look forward to working together in the future
Regards

Dear Louisa and Amy
I wanted to wish you both a wonderful weekend and to thank you both for all your hard work, support, encouragement and enthusiasm. You found the best opportunity for me and I really appreciate it. Out of the various agencies I have approached in my job search you have been by far the best and most reliable. You not only found me a great opportunity but you also helped keep my spirits up at a very challenging time.
Thanks and warm wishes,
Suzanne.

We have been extremely happy with the service and candidates provided to us by Louisa and Amy at Benchmark Recruit.
When recruiting for my own maternity leave it was essential to ensure a replacement that would perform to the same high standard, and allow me to have a break confident in the knowledge that things would be looked after in my absence.
Louisa and Amy handpicked me a selection of candidates with relevant experience and the right personality and demeanor for the organisation. The two candidates we interviewed were of a very high caliber and I had no hesitation that they had been fully briefed regarding the company ethos and responsibilities of the post.
The whole recruitment process has been smooth and fast flowing. I have no hesitation in recommending their services and have found their approach refreshing and effective.
Thanks again for your assistance, look forward to working with you in the future.

Dear Louisa & Amy
I just wanted to let you know I've been very happy with efficient service provided by Benchmark - from first contact to arrangement of interviews, feedback from candidates and help with selection.
I am confident that Benchmark understand our Business and I know that only the candidates with the correct experience, personality and work ethos will be sent to me for consideration - it's such a relief to know that I don't have to spend valuable time going through unsuitable CV's or interviewing unsuitable candidates!
The service from Benchmark has been professional but friendly and it's nice
to know that they you there when I need you without being constantly reminded with emails and phone calls!
Thanks again for all you assistance this year look forward to working with you in 2008

We appreciated the fact that Benchmark's consultants took the time to visit our company when we contacted them with our vacancy. This enabled Benchmark to understand not only our requirements, but also get a good feel for how our company operates. This was valuable to be able to find a candidate that would fit it into the sales team.
Within days of this initial consultation, we had 3 interviews booked in. One of these candidates was selected. It was clear each of the candidates had been carefully vetted prior to the interviews being booked.
We would like to thank Louisa and Amy for taking the time to fully understand our needs and responding in a friendly and personable way. Our faith in recruitment consultancies has been restored.
