AR came to us highly recommended. They found us a candidate (we later found out that they recruited him from totaljobs.com!) that we felt was a good match for our requirement. We negotiated the rebate terms prior to going proceeding with the appointment, AR sent us the negotiated terms by email which stated we would get a 50% rebate if the employment ceased within the first 12 weeks to which we responded they should go ahead!
Unfortunately we had to let the candidate go as he was not suitable for the role. When we demanded the refund from AR we were entitled to per our agreement, they managed to pull out some small print from their terms of business to get out of issuing a refund. Sadly, we are left feeling ripped off and 13,000 out of pocket . A word of advice to all employers, do the job yourself on Totaljobs and don't expose yourself to this firm that have no shame in acting in the way they have done.

Having worked with Austin Rose for 6 years on all manner of practice recruitment I would describe them as a trusted advisor. In a market place that is increasingly difficult to navigate they are always there with genuinely suitable candidates as well as honest and sensible advice.
Austin Rose set themselves aside from other recruiters by being true experts in their field. The top quality candidates that Austin Rose have continued to provide us with have definitely helped contribute to Charterhouse Accountants new top 100 listing!

Having worked closely with Austin Rose as both a candidate and a client, I am continually impressed by the quality of their services and their market knowledge. Not only did they secure me a move into a Partnership role, they have continued to source excellent candidates for our firm. I would highly recommend Austin Rose to any candidate or client.
Christine Inch, HR Manager, Haslers
I have worked with Austin Rose for a number of years for both Audit and Tax vacancies. The team are highly professional, listen to our requirements and do not bombard us with cvs for the sake of it. Quality rather than quantity is what you get from Austin Rose which makes a HR Manager’s job much easier! They understand the market, our business and give honest feedback and advice.

Having worked with Austin Rose for years, we can safely say that Scott and his team are our kind of people: highly professional, straightforward and dependable whilst providing a friendly, personalised service. We’ve been pleased to tell our own clients about Austin Rose and would strongly recommend the team as a quality recruitment resource.

Austin Rose has always demonstrated a great understanding of how we operate and drive as a business. They have continued to show a determination to source candidates who fit both our technical requirements and the culture of the firm. Their consultants can be trusted to only present those individuals who closely match our needs, and over the years they have supported us in recruiting many key hires from Partner level through to trainee as well as within our back office functions. Their knowledge of the practice market has proven extremely valuable and their no-nonsense approach to recruitment has been greatly received.
