Report
Was contacted by Louise about a vacancy and invited in to register. The process was easy from registration with the lovely Denise to my interview with Louise. The process was explained, and I was given ample opportunity to discuss my circumstances and timescales. Louise was patient, helpful and understanding. I felt I was given lots of good information about the agency and how she might be able to help me.
I left in no doubt about next steps and I knew that I could go back at anytime if I had any queries or questions, and I won't feel awkward or be treat in a way that I don't matter. It is such a pleasure to find Louise and this agency. I will definitely be recommending. Thank you.

Report
I submitted my CV for consideration on an advert and was contacted by Louise to explain how the agency worked and also arrange a meeting at the office. Louise has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process and found me work in no time. Regular emails were sent with new job suggestions and Louise would ring me to let me know about new roles she'd like to put me forward for. Having just relocated to Cornwall and not knowing much about the area or work availibilty, I found Louise to be on the ball and super fast!
As I mentioned, I have been placed into work already, and Louise is in constant contact to ensure I am happy within the workplace and to answer any queries I may have! 10/10 service! Although I've not really been dealing any of the other staff in the agency, I found the staff very helpful and friendly.

I am so impressed with this agency. I was contacted and interviewed by Louise. What I loved was she took the time to talk to me, explain everything I needed to know and find out about me. I have been to other agencies that are in such a hurry they don't care about you at all. It was lovely to be able to explain my position and find out what I needed to know and more importantly she was honest. Thank you for that.
I have been contacted several times since my visit and been kept up to date with everything. Thank you Louise for making me feel I have a worthwhile position in society and that am capable to moving forward in this world. You have a special approach so don't ever change. 5***** all the way.

A wonderful experience so far, from my registration confirmation from Denise to my initial interview with Louise. Time and effort were taken to go through things carefully and I never felt rushed or pushed in anyway. Communication has been excellent. I have now been booked in for my first role after being contacted. The role was explained and I was given all the information and never felt like I had to do anything. Time was taken to understand the types of role I wanted, and where I wanted to work. I can't recommend them enough. Louise is so lovely, makes you feel at ease and not awkward at all. A total joy.
