Candidate testimonials

Conrad Consulting has helped many candidates find that perfect role over the years and here are a few comments from some of our candidates.

Georgia helped me land a great role after I had been looking for a new position for a long time. She is polite, professional, and always keeps you updated. She is supportive and encouraging and helps with pre-interview preparation.
Candidate - Document Controller
I've been on the hunt for a new role for a little under three months now and in that time I've talked to and worked with more recruiters than I can count. I've lost track of the number of times I've been messed around, delayed, given excuses and even had recruiters go completely silent on me without explanation and after some initially very promising discussions.

Then comes my application via Conrad Connect and my experience with them has been leagues ahead of anyone else I've dealt with.

I had a call from Stuart first thing the morning after submitting my application and it was such a breath of fresh air. Stuart was direct, honest and friendly right off the bat and when he had me booked in for a face to face interview within a few hours of our initial discussion he proved Conrad Connect are efficient as well!

It was only a few days between speaking to Stuart and having my interview and throughout the whole process Stuart kept in touch, made sure I was prepped and was an invaluable source of advice.

After my interview Stuart was in touch within the hour to see how I felt about it and within 2 hours he had spoken to my interviewers and passed on their initial feedback, again showcasing his efficiency! Better yet, by the end of the day he had an offer of employment for me with a salary package that actually exceeded what I'd asked for!

All in all, my experience with Conrad Connect has been brief in the best possible way. In the months I'd been job hunting and of all the recruiters I'd worked with Stuart sits right there at the top. The entire experience was faultless and as a candidate it was refreshing to work with someone who had faith in me as a candidate, rather than just treating me as a potential commission payment. I can't recommend Conrad Connect and Stuart highly enough!

We have worked closely with Stuart Allsopp for a number of years and very recently have employed a bookkeeper that Stuart was confident we would work well with and add value to our team. Stuart’s commitment to his role means he likes to fully understand the role that we are looking to recruit for, always asks us specific questions to understand our exact requirements and engages with us to understand our office dynamics and how a candidate would complement our current working office. Therefore, we only receive CV’s with background information on candidates that he fully believes will add value to us. Stuart and the Conrad team have become trusted recruitment partners, and we see the relationship continuing into the future.

I would like to say, that Stuart has provided an excellent service as a recruiter and manager for Conrad Connect. You exceeded my expectations from the first day you contacted me, letting me know of a payroll position I would be suited for and reassuring me about the location and all the necessary requirements. You kept me updated all the way through the process, from sending my CV to the employer and helped coach me through my first and second interview, right up to confirming that I'd got the job.
You always let me know that I could contact you at any stage if I had any questions or concerns and reassured me, if I had any doubts. You were friendly, kind and very approachable, and very professional which eased my nerves in transitioning from my current role into a new role which will take my payroll career to the next level and cared about my future success. I would like to thank Stuart and Conrad Connect for helping me through this process and would definitely highly recommend anyone that I know who's looking for a new role.

Stuart has provided excellent service from the start. He has been very responsive in his replies and was always available whenever I needed to contact him. He would go the extra mile of calling me to see how my interviews went on and always provided feedback from his client. Very honest, professional yet friendly manner. I will definitely be using Conrad Connect for any of our recruitment needs in the near future. Thank you.

Stuart is unlike any other recruiter I’ve worked with before: he brought a personal touch to the entire recruitment process, from initial call to the hiring stage and first days in the role. I’m very glad we connected. Thanks Stuart!
Ava Kammer - Sales Development
I have been thoroughly impressed with the professionalism of Stuart at Conrad Finance. From the very first phone call Stuart understood the kind of role I was looking for and only put me forward for jobs that he felt most suited my skill set. He remained in constant communication with me not only during the interview process but also once the job had been offered. I always felt that he was at the end of the phone, if and when required. I would not hesitate to contact him again should I be in a position where I am seeking new employment.
Nicola - Credit Controller

I can’t recommend Georgia enough! Not only did she help me find my job, she was also there every step of the way with offering me advice and checking in with me each step of the way. Her communication was incredible, and I can’t thank you enough Georgia for getting me where I am now.

Stuart and his team have been a massive help throughout my whole recruitment process, providing informative and professional advice to assist me in securing my dream role. From helping me edit my CV to pre-interview pep talks to post-interview feedback, Stuart has been supportive and friendly from the very beginning.
I would highly recommend Conrad Connect to anyone who is looking for a new opportunity.
Alice Wootton - Finance Assistant

From start to finish Stuart was brilliant, one of if not the best recruitment agents I have spoken to and dealt with. He provided support from the moment he sent my CV off, to the lead up to the interview and after. Stuart is easy to talk to and encouraging if you are looking to change roles. He made the process seem entirely smooth and effortless.

Anna
After being approached by a few different agencies over the past couple of months I had lost all faith in them. A huge lack of communication from them and just made to feel like 'another candidate' to them. That was until Stuart randomly contacted me last week. Right from the start he's been nothing but helpful and kept me upto date at all times. I honestly felt like he was fighting my corner at all times and actually cared about me. I never imagined within a week I would have secured a new job. You're an asset to Conrad Connect and honestly can't thank you enough!!

You’ve worked hard and you are, rightly, proud of your chosen specialism and career. Now you’re looking for a new opportunity and, in the competitive technical sector market, job hunting can be time consuming and stressful, leading all too often to a multitude of dead ends and disappointments. So how do you streamline the process and gain an edge on the tens, or perhaps hundreds, of other applicants when you finally discover that ‘perfect fit’ role?

The short answer is “Find a dedicated recruitment expert who knows your field inside out.”  

Sounds simple, but the reality is that the recruitment industry is overflowing with consultants, and you need to sort the wheat from the chaff to locate a specialist who can back up their claims with action.  You don’t want a generalist or a consultant who sends out your CV for totally inappropriate roles. You do want someone who takes the time to know you, understands your strengths and weaknesses and knows the best way to accentuate the former and divert attention from the latter – someone you can trust to work with and for you in your best interests as an individual.
