Look closer!

This company does not seem to be a real organisation in my opinion.

No one is ever available when you call. They will postpone and never be able to direct you straight away to whom you want to speak with. Also, they have very weak online presence and a "copy n paste" website.

Non of the recruiters that email you have linkedin which is strange for recruitment in the UK

Also, they are technically not even Recruitment Central Ltd, they are called A-Z TOTAL SOLUTIONS LTD and use "recruit central" to hide. Massive misrepresentation in my opinion.

This is a SCAM

This is a SCAM. They are trying to sell courses and making fake interviews. They have almost no linkedin presence. I could not find the person that emailed me on linkedin either

Did not help me get a job at all, they just tried to convince me to buy an online course

Based on my experience, I do not believe this is a legitimate recruitment agency. They did not help get me a job, instead they tried to convince me to sign up for a £358 online course. When I did not sign up for the course, I never heard back from them.

Here is my experience with Recruitment Central: They called me up and said they found my CV on Reed, and I was told to look on their website and look at the jobs available. I identified a role I was interested in, and a few days later I had a screening call with them - they told me that I was an excellent candidate but would need to strengthen my application with some "official certifications" in finance. They told me to go sign up for the "Introduction to UK Financial Regulation & Professional Integrity" course at cifa.ac, which costs £358, and then I could add this certification to my CV and they would submit my application to the job I was interested in. I was suspicious so I searched the name of this specific course on Reddit and discovered that other people had the same experience with Recruitment Central - apparently there are also other fake recruitment companies all running this same scam to try to sell people expensive courses from CIFA. Another one of these companies is "City Jobs UK" - their website has the same jobs as Recruitment Central (these exact same jobs have been there for months). Another is "Recruit Direct" - the reviewers on Trustpilot all had the same experience as I did with Recruitment Central. Needless to say I did not sign up for the course, and I never heard from Recruitment Central again.

Some more evidence they are not legit:
- The recruiter wasn’t able to tell me the name of the company that was hiring for the position. They made up some excuse about privacy, but I don’t see how it would be a problem for me to know the name of the company I am applying to work at?
- They have essentially no presence on LinkedIn. I couldn't even find the two "recruiters" I was in contact with. Surely a recruitment company would have some kind of presence on LinkedIn, or at the very least their recruiters would have profiles?
- All the reviews on Trustpilot are clearly fake. They are all 5 stars, they are all written in the same way, and they are all from accounts with obviously fake names and no other reviews.

Average Service…

My experience with Recruitment Central Ltd was average. While the team was polite and eventually found me a job, I didn’t feel like they went above and beyond. The process took longer than expected, and I had to chase up for updates a few times. It’s an okay service, but I’ve had better experiences elsewhere.

Decent Experience Could Be Better…

Decent Experience Could Be BetterI had a decent experience with this company. While the team was professional and eventually helped me find a job, the process was longer than I would have liked.

Helpful Advisors But Long Process…

I had a decent experience with Recruitment Central Ltd. The process took longer than I hoped, but the advisors were helpful and professional. It wasn’t the most efficient service, which is why I’m giving two stars, but I did eventually find a role that suits me. I’d still recommend them, just be prepared for a bit of a wait.
