Charlotte made my job hunt easy, efficient and fast. Excellent service, communication and timing. I had four interviews and four job offers within a week! They had an amazing range of job positions available and I was given a specific selection catered to what I was looking for, all of which offered competitive salaries. Couldn't recommend them more, and hopefully you'll be lucky enough to get Charlotte, if I'm ever in the position of looking for a job again I will be using them and asking for her

Cannot speak highly enough of Anthony and Property Personnel. Anthony listened to what I wanted, made suggestions and recommendations and put me in touch with a company he was working with and a few chats later I have the role of my dreams. Not the role I saw advertised or originally applied for, but a role that Anthony thought I would be interested and a good fit for, and he gave me the support to go for it. Boom!
They don't bombard you with calls about opportunities that are not relevant either. Not all recruitment agencies are the same, I would come back to property personnel before going anywhere else. I look forward to recruiting my new team with his help in the future.

I've just landed my new job through property personnel. Charlotte was amazing at helping me through the process. She guided me so well and checked up on how everything went. Second interview and I got the job in estate agency thanks to her. Everything was very quick as I only was with them for two weeks. Will definitely be recommending them to friends in the future!

I am extremely impressed with Charlotte O'Hanlon at Property Personal. She is professional, efficient, and thought about what I wanted out of a new career in the property market. Charlotte offers a good service and has now secured a job for me with Savills Reading which is an excellent fit for my skill set.
