Report
Best recruitment company I have ever dealt with, joined the agency on a Friday and was in work on the Monday, everyone at the factory I went to had only positive and good things to say about them, and the majority of the people had been in the job for years and also on the agency. Excellent rate of pay too, wages paid on time and no hassle. Thank you hayley for getting me back into work. Highly recommended

Just like 99% of agencies not worth the time wasted signing up. Mind you JGR is another exception beyond the norm they are more useless than the other 95% which I didn't think was possible until I contacted them. Do yourselves a big favor ignore all the agencies who cream off the top and try contacting firms directly.

Not really sure what the other reviewer is on about. I have been registered with Jennifer Griffiths Recruitment several times in the last five years and they have always found me work. The staff are always friendly and really helpful.
