Pareto Reviews 

The company was amazing, kept me fully informed throughout the whole process, many contacts and fast responses.

I feel fully prepared to start my new job through Pareto.

Staff is just so lovely and it genuinely feels like they want you to succeed and that they care.

Everyone who I have come across at Pareto has been extremely helpful friendly and professional. From my initial conversation with graduate manager Max, to the online assessment day with Yoan and working with Saz to find the right opportunity the Parato team have been a pleasure to work with and really helped me find the right role 10/10 would recommend to graduates looking to get into Saas

I had a great experience with Pareto. I was approached with a phone call following my application I sent via Linked In. This was then swiftly progressed onto a group interview within the following days. It was a pretty lengthy interview but understandable. I was successful in my interview, put forward to interview for Pareto themselves and upon being unsuccessful here I had multiple different recruiters approach me with other job opportunities. The first one I went ahead with gave me the job after 2 more interviews. It was very helpful and smooth sailing. The whole thing took around a month from the first point of contact to the final interview for the second role.

Pareto provided me with a personalised and impeccable candidate experience. They managed to place me in a week even though I had a 5 year career break, moved countries and switched career paths.
What an amazing team !!!!!

Pareto Assessment Day was full of fun challenges. Hannah was amazing when it came to preparation and always was available to speak and guide me when I needed help.

Incredibly professional!

I felt really supported and informed with the quick and thorough communication qia email and calls, was given all the information I needed to succeed and the team was really helpful.

Highly recommended.

I got invited to the assessment day, they said get there for 12pm as that is when the day will begin, it actually began at 1:30pm, nobody told us what was going on or when we’d start. At 1:30pm finally Pareto employees turned up, didn’t even introduce themselves and sat at the front looking at their laptops. The ‘employers’ were also there but didn’t introduce themselves either. We were told to be dressed professionally, but that was not reciprocated. We were then in there for about 3 hours introducing ourselves and got put into 2 group tasks. The day seemed to be very go go go but then a lot of waiting around was also involved. It was shambles. Waiting around without knowing what to do to only be invited to a 3 minute pitch and be told ‘I want to get this day over with as much as you do so get started’. Utterly unprofessional. We then waited for another hour to be told we’re unsuccessful and to leave. No feedback given even a week later. I will not be recommending this to anyone at all. Waste of time and money.

My experience with Pareto has been great! Briony was so supportive throughout the interview process providing regular check ins and helping prepare me for the interview! Also super lovely to talk to and helped me with landing my new role!

Thank you so much!

Scam company. They will advertise jobs about sales but they will post jobs to do with other positions like I applied for business analyst. It's all just sales that's all they offer it's a new way to scam people into sales positions. I have a degree and tons of experience in sales I don't need a sales position with Pareto. I did a 5 hour session on zoom with them, waste of time. The director said it to me you wouldn't be here if you didnt want a sales job.

If anything is sales sales sales and it's not what you applied for then don't do it. They do misleading adverts like the one I applied for.

Something is wrong with this company , if you want a sales job go for it , but if you want something else out of sales do not do it, they will waste your time in hopes you become a salesman for their personal targets

FYI they will totally waste your time. I was told they actually only offer sales based positions whatever the fancy title it is literally sales.

I attended a full-day assessment day in January. The Pareto team as a whole ran the day seamlessly and it was an enjoyable experience. Special shout out to Oli Sercombe who was my graduate manager and supported me throughout the process from my first screening interview through to a job offer - I couldn’t have done it without his guidance in preparing for the assessment day. Thanks Oli!

I had been successful in the assessment day and everyone was super helpful and accommodating or rather just appearing to be.

I had been in contact with Levi Scothern and Max Winterton. Levi got me an interview with Aalco and I was told by my interviewer that he thought it went well and when I asked if they had any reservations about me as a candidate they advised me that it would sent back to Pareto to let me know what their feedback was. Max was unresponsive when I had asked him for help with the uploading of my documents as I have recently moved across the country so only had scanned copies when it was asking for a photo to be taken. I have called and emailed several times and cannot seem to get through. After this I was called by two separate advisors one was called Ollie and I cannot recall the name of the other lady I had spoke to. They called to ask me about a role in Leicester. To which I responded that the commute is over 2 hours so it would not be suitable. I then raised the fact that I had no response and I was told that there would be a message left for Levi. Having called Aalco they delivered the feedback directly to me and advised that it is something that pareto themselves should be doing.

I'm really disappointed that I appeared to have wasted my time and that Pareto seemed like a trustworthy and forth coming company.

Please consider training the staff to complete follow up and managing their workloads as clearly they cannot seem to handle a telephone call or a courtesy email to say sorry you have not been successful that would be more appropriate than ghosting individuals that wasted 4 hours in an assessment day. I am surprised that there is this much room for incompetency at such a large company, from reading the rest of the reviews many have experienced the same and I am astounded at the lack of professionalism.

I was contacted by Hannah Rosenberg and was given guidance and support throughout the whole process as needed, so it didn't feel like I was going in blind into the assessment day. Her consistency to make sure I knew exactly what I needed to going into it as well as any further information in regards to the role helped me feel comfortable and looking forward to the day ahead. Which helped to me to walk away with a job! Thanks again Hannah!!

Great experience with Pareto from the start! I was contacted by Oli who was amazing throughout the process. He was very well informed on the position available and what I could do to get it. From touching-up my CV to interview advice. He never left me with questions I needed answering and consistently checked in with me in the build-up to their assessment day to ensure I felt prepared. 5 Stars for Oli!
The assessment day itself was well-run and informative. Of course, these things can be uncomfortable but the team - including Sarah, Lauren, Andy and Saz - made sure the day ran smoothly and made me feel welcome and more at-ease.
I am now employed due to the assessment day by a company I'm very happy to be with and I am continuing my relationship with Pareto via their apprenticeship course (Level 3 IT sales). So far, this has been great and I can wait to get more stuck into it!

The day was a wonderful and enriching experience! The support and guidance from Hannah Rosenberg was phenomenal and I am really grateful for it! From the start, the information about the day and the task/pitch was clear and precise! I was shown what to prepare and how to be successful throughout the day, so you won’t be thrown into the deep end without any help! The actual day went really well, the atmosphere was exciting and challenging in the best way possible. It’s competency based, so you should be yourself, but also come prepared to sell why you would do well in B2B sales! I cannot praise the help enough!! Overall a really good experience, I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to kick start their career and put themselves out there.

Louis was extremely helpful throughout the entire process and guided me towards success.

Barbara was very welcoming and easy to talk to, she assisted me in getting ready for the assessment day and was an all-round great help to me during this process!

Louis was professional and insightful throughout the process and mentored me in the skills I needed to progress. He is a real asset and ambassador for Pareto and I cannot recommend him highly enough! Any potential candidate would be lucky to have the opportunity to work with him - he deserves a raise.

Had a really fantastic experience with Louis. Can't recommend enough - he coached me through the whole process and was great. Someone promote him! Thanks Louis :)

I have been working with Oli throughout the application process at Pareto, and he has been both supportive and encouraging from the start. Without Oli, I would've been lost as to what was going on and how to prepare, I can't thank him enough!
