Holly was absolutely fantastic from the start.
Within an hour of submitting my CV we had a call, interview arranged for the following week and a follow up call after the interview to see how it went- for Holly to ring me back and say they had offered me the job.
Also got a phone-call today to wish me good luck before I start tomorrow.
Lovely woman with a very calming and friendly demeanour! Thank you Holly!!

“Holly Keylock provided excellent support in my job application

“Holly provided excellent support throughout the entire process. She set clear expectations for each stage, prepared me for conversations with stakeholders across the organisation, and guided me on what would be reasonable from an offer perspective. She was proactive in chasing paperwork on both sides and ensured everything stayed on track. Overall, her support was well‑coordinated, highly professional, and instrumental in helping me secure the role.”

Bogus

Bogus. Untrustworthy. Interrogation into your personal life and then do not deliver.

New Job with Harpers Help

Emily was exceptional. I had been redundant for nearly 8 weeks and felt I wasn’t getting anywhere. Emily was brilliant at keeping me informed and gave great advice. I now start a new job in a couple of weeks. Highly recommend Harper Recruitment.

Kate was a great help with the role from start to finish. Transparent and precise information given, Kate was always on the other end of the phone when required and the communication was second to none. I would recommend Kate and the Harper Recruitment Group anytime

Holly took the time to visit our office and listen to our needs and wants to ensure she found the right candidate for us. She followed up and kept us in the loop all the way, helped us gather the onboarding information we needed and we have now found a perfect match!

Highly recommended, and should we need a new candidate for a similar role in the future we will be in touch with Holly at Harper Recruitment.

I really cannot understate the great service Harper Recruitment offers. Both Holly and Kate are not only really good at what they do, but they go the extra mile. Having recently helped me secure a new role, I can feedback that they left no stone unturned in providing a very indepth overview of what the role was, and then worked closely with me during the interview, post interview, feedback, follow on actions processes. They always kept me in the loop, and for that I am grateful. I highly recommend Harper as the go-to recruiting agency if you are actively job seeking or if you are an employer looking to fill a new position. Thank you Holly, Kate and Harper Recruitment!

Amazing communication with everyone there, they contacted me straight away and explained their role and we went straight into the job role. I had never used a recruitment company but it was super easy. They kept me up to date with the application and always checked in on me, even when I got the job they rang to congratulate me and made sure I had all the information I needed! Kate and Holly were so lovely and polite, I would recommend to anyone and everyone!

No communication. Nottingham branch awful!

Absolutely shocking agency with zero communication in the Nottingham branch. CVs submitted for interviews with 2 companies, yet Alex and Holly never returned my calls or provided any further correspondence. Interestingly, I was asked by Paige to rate my experience. I was told she would be in touch following my feedback, and I never got a call / email either. AVOID!!!

Having never used a recruitment company before I was nervous as to what to expect but I was extremely well looked after by Holly and Kate. They followed up every step of the interview process with a friendly phone call and offered advice and support. I would not hesitate to recommend them, thank you very much.

Professional Recruitment Agency

Recruiting staff is a time consuming difficult process. We have used Harper Recruitment in the past and they were the obvious choice when we needed help again.
Kate and Holly understood the type of person we hoped to find and within days Holly sent me CV's to review. The standard of CV made our choice extremely difficult and confirmed that Holly totally understood our business needs.
We were very lucky to be able to find our ideal candidate quickly.
Kate and Holly made the recruitment process very easy and enjoyable whilst always remaining professional.
Should we need help again recruiting they will always be our first choice!
