Recruiter Extraordinaire: Aidan

I had the pleasure of working with Aidan, and he was an outstanding recruiter. He took the time to truly understand what I was looking for in my next role and delivered precisely what I wanted. Even after my contract concluded, Aidan remained consistently engaged, regularly checking in on my progress and ensuring I had promising prospects lined up for my next opportunity. His dedication and ongoing support exceeded my expectations, making him an invaluable asset in my job search journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Aidan for his exceptional professionalism and unwavering commitment to his clients' success.

Why I would choose Anson McCade

Luke and I have been working together for the last few months, so it is a relatively new relationship, as he sought to find me a new role post redundancy. As I built my network what stood out for me the most and the reason I want to work with Luke going forward was that he always made time for me. He made the effort to discuss roles with me, he followed up with me on my applications, he listened to my concerns and supported me. As someone new to the contract worker environment it was a surprise to see how many recruiters don't do this. I wish Luke the best and hope to work with him again in the future.

Recommend for jobs in technology

I have been closely engaging with Anson McCade, who are recruiters and sourcing experts, over the summer months. I had the pleasure of dealing with Erin McGinn throughout this time, who helped me get a great role at a major IT and security company.

Erin is always quick off the mark with both routine and urgent communications, is very personable, understanding the human side of moving jobs, which can always have complex pros and cons, when you are looking to leave a company you have been at for a while.

I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to current and former colleagues looking for a change in various industries.

Great experience dealing with Michael Finch

I had an excellent experience dealing with Michael Finch for a role at a US investment bank. Throughout the process, from initial contact to my first day onsite, Michael was helpful, informative, and responsive. I would be very happy to work together again.

A recently had the pleasure of working with Anson McCade (specifically, Mark Salley). Throughout the whole process, Mark has been not but professional, extremely helpful and an absolute pleasure to talk to. Any issues/worries I had were quickly quashed with either immediate answers, or immediate action to find out the answer for me.

From start to finish, Mark kept me informed of the ongoings behind the scenes and updated me with any relevant information for my new job. For the most part, I just had to sit back, relax and await my new start date.

I'd be delighted to work with Anson McCade - and in particular, Mark - again in the future when I come to look for a new role!

Excellent and successful experience from Thomas Roscoe

Now that I'm embedded into what I can only describe as my dream job back within BAE I have to leave a positive review. From start to finish of the recruitment process Thomas Roscoe in particular made the whole experience enjoyable and unusually in some clearance jobs, a very quick process. No stone was unturned before the interview and the technics shared definitely assisted in the interview. Even after receiving the good news of securing the job Thomas still kept me up to date on proceedings until I was in post which is above and beyond. Can't recommend the company anymore from my experience.

Very helpful both finding and securing BAE Systems job

James Bushnell at the Belfast branch was very proactive in ensuring that I was fully prepared for the recruitment process at BAE Systems and was also very thorough in checking up on progress after learning that the interview was successful.

Pleasant Recent Experience

I have recently worked with Anson McCade, in particular, Aidan McNeill has proven to be one of the best recruiters I have come into contact with, he values transparency which as a candidate helps to build trust. I would happily work with Aidan again and believe he is a credit to his organisation.

Ryan Willis, Adam Beattie and all the Team

The team here had working relationships with companies and this made the recruitment experience highly effective. They communicated daily with me, kept me informed and double checked that our requirements and intensions were always aligned. I enjoyed the quick, effective, honest and communication centric approach to helping me secure a new position with a great company. Thank you.

Brilliant experience with Luke Sandford

I'm just about to start a new position as a software engineer at BAE Systems digital intelligence and have Luke to thank for it.

I really enjoyed my time working with Luke to secure this position. He is a very genuine sound individual who could have a bit of banter but also took the time to really understand where I wanted to take my career and provide me with a range of options on how to get there. Luke has strong personal and communication skills with good industry knowledge.

During the process, Luke continuously keep me informed and caught up with me to understand my thoughts and where I was. Throughout the interview process, he gave good guidance and support on what to expect and how to prepare and put me in touch with relevant people to help me reach my decision. Additionally, he was able to help negotiate a stronger package than was initially offered.

I highly recommend Luke and will be pointing a couple of my friends toward Anson McCade.

Exceptional Recruiter Experience with Jack McNeilly

I recently had the privilege of working with Jack McNeilly as my recruiter, and I cannot praise him enough for his outstanding professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for my job search. Jack went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and successful experience, and I am truly grateful for his remarkable assistance.

From the very beginning, Jack demonstrated his expertise and knowledge of the industry. He took the time to understand my career goals, skills, and aspirations, allowing him to tailor his approach and identify the perfect opportunities for me. Jack's insightful guidance throughout the entire process was invaluable.

One of the standout qualities of Jack is his exceptional communication skills. He consistently kept me informed and updated about the progress of my job search, promptly responding to any questions or concerns I had. Jack's responsiveness was truly impressive; he always made himself available and ensured that I felt supported at every step of the way.

What sets Jack apart is his commitment to going the extra mile. He genuinely cared about my success and invested additional effort to assist me in any way he could. Whether it was providing interview preparation tips, arranging mock interviews, or sharing valuable industry insights, Jack's dedication and personalised approach were unparalleled.

Zack McCall

Zack McCall, recruitment legend, super easy to work with and a joy to communicate with. He has been very personable and upfront, unlike a lot of recruiters who I’ve found to be cold and generic. Zack was always able to answer my questions in an honest but professional way and tailored the recruitment process to suit me and to ease any specific worries I had about my latest career move.

He was very quick and attentive when it came to communication - always letting me know if and when he wouldn’t be around and introducing me to people who would be covering him (like Luke and Stephen - who were also excellent). But usually responding super fast on the phone and by email.

I’ve already started recommending Zack (and Anson McCade) to other colleagues who I know are interested in making a move and would recommend him to anyone in the same position without hesitation.

Just a shame that I really love my new job and probably won’t get to work with him again 😭

Top Notch Agency for Cyber Security Professionals

Through the services of Anson McCade I was able to get the opportunity and successfully complete my transition to a great new venture with a fantastic organisation as my next step in my career. Erin McGinn was my agent throughout the process and she proved to be absolutely brilliant. She always kept me up to date throughout the process and catered to my requirements carefully selecting client's best suited to my capabilities. I'd certainly recommend Erin highly as an agent for anyone looking for a cyber security role in the industry.

Brilliant recruiter with successful career results

I highly recommend Anson McCade as a recruiter. I've not had much experience interacting with recruiters, but Anson McCade was amazing from the start. I applied for an opportunity for a global tech firm via the website and was soon connected with Luke Sandford, who guided me closely through every stage. Luke went further to support me with hints, tips, and best approaches in the recruitment and interview processes to ensure I had the best chance of success, which I did. Thanks to Luke and the team, I have now been accepted and started my new role. Thanks again, Anson McCade!
