If I could give 10 stars, I would! I've had the best experience with this company, in particular Dan. He has helped me every step of the way with finding me a permanent role within a well established company. He is an absolute credit to your team and I could not thank him enough. Thank you!

Report
I've had the best experience with Goldhawk. With Daniel + Megan in particular! They introduced me to a temporary role, and Daniel even called me the day before I started to see how I was feeling and made sure I was prepared. I've never had this kind of genuine treatment from a recruiter before, nor did I experience any time wasting or getting messed around like other recruiters I've experienced in Kent. Thank you guys
