"Grad-Central was very proactive in placing me in a role that would suit me as an individual in both the short and the long term. I have used many other recruitment firms, but Grad-Central is unique in the bespoke way it offers its service. The staff are genuinely interested in finding the ideal career for you and I felt that my career aspirations were sincerely valued."

"I have recently gained a Marketing Web Consultant position for a major household name in the West Midlands. I could not have done this without the help of Grad Central.
You helped me to look through several job opportunities and then once I found the one I liked the team helped me to gain the position. My recruitment consultant was extremely helpful at all parts of the job application process, before helping me prepare for the interview, then once I had been offered the position she helped me to complete my contract as quickly as possible which at Christmas time was no small task. Even after all this time she is still prepared to help me with any of my queries about the job.
Thank you again for making this such an easy, enjoyable and more importantly successful process."

"From the very first time I spoke to Grad Central I found them to be honest with me and that was what made me respect them. The jobs they put me forward for we discussed in detail and only when we both were happy would my consultant put me forward for the position. She was nothing like a lot of recruitment consultants who i found just put me forward for everything and I felt were really pushy just to get me a job so they could earn commission.
Grad Central always got back to me when they said they would and went out of their way on a number of occasions to help me prepare for interviews. We spoke over the phone, via email and my consultant even ran through practice questions with me, she made herself approachable, trustworthy and easy to get hold of.
I am more than grateful for the hard work Grad Central has put in to successfully get me into employment. I would not have a job if it was not for them and I cannot thank them enough. They gave me the advice and confidence to be myself and get a job...thank you."

''Grad-Central, and the Rec-Rec team in general were simply perfect. With a turnover of around a week from first contact, I have now got my dream job in recruitment. Having used what seems like every agency in the Midlands, my agent Vanessa, was by far the best. I cannot recommend more.''

"The service I received from Grad Central has been excellent in my opinion, especially when compared to other recruitment companies. There has been a large amount of communication which has left me feeling completely in control of my job application. They have also been very fast to respond to any query I have had which has really helped throughout my application process. I am very happy with the position they have found for me and will have no trouble recommending them to anyone that asks how I found the job I am about to embark on. Thank you very much for all the help you have provided."

"I'm obviously very happy with my dealings with Grad central as the aim of my job search was to find a position and thanks to Grad central I have been able to do this. The reliability and manner in which the service I experienced was delivered was also very good. The service was always polite and friendly whilst still being professional.
I was kept well informed at all stages through the application with accurate information, and was given the appropriate support and instructions to make sure that my application from the original application form through to the second interview was being given the best chance of being successful.
I dealt with several employment agencies, around 10 - none of them maintained as regular contact or delivered what they said they would like Grad Central did. Searching for jobs can be stressful and the market is understandably very competitive, the best thing for me about my dealings with Grad Central was that they were always honesty, supportive and never gave any false promises."

"I was very happy with the service and help that has been provided to me by my Recruitment Consultant at Grad Central. I was initially hesitant about applying for the job as I wasn't sure I was suited for the role, but luckily I was advised to give it a chance and I now have a job offer that exceeded my expectations and should help me to exercise the skills I have already learned while hopefully developing many more. I have received regular phone calls and emails throughout the process which have kept me informed as to the progress of my application, and helped me be prepared at every stage. I was also given plenty of opportunity to ask advice about the applications processes and interviews which I needed as this was my first time applying for a job in a large company.
I would like to thank the team at Grad Central for making a process that is usually quite stressful and complicated a lot easier and friendly. I would definitely contact Grad Central first if I was ever looking for another position (although hopefully I wont have to for a while!) and I have already recommended Grad Central to several of my ex-classmates."

"Grad Central is a refreshing change from other recruiters; they were extremely flexible with methods and timing of my contact with them. This allowed me to get on with what I was doing, instead of waiting for the phone to ring all day! Looking for a technical role, I was pleased that they listened to the jargon I requested and successfully found roles highly suitable to my skills. Friendly and helpful staff, great stuff!" |

"When looking for a job, I wanted to utilise my degree level skills as much as possible, but finding an appropriate job with my specialisms in material science and ceramics was tough. Landing this job with Grad Central’s help was better than I could have ever dreamed of.
Grad Central was very supportive from start to finish, and with a comprehensive team helping me every step of the way, I felt confident with my English and more prepared to start my career in the UK."
