Thank you for your kind review and comments around our overall good service, you are correct that in finding the very best candidates in the marketplace our advertising costs do come at a small premium. I am however pleased to hear that we managed to fill a vacancy, that was live for a lengthy period with other agencies, showing the small increase on cost has been worthwhile. We do hope to work with you again in the future and we really appreciate the opportunity to work with you this year. Kindest Regards, Kayleigh Bysouth – Founder & Director of Busy Bee Recruitment Ltd.

Dream to work with

Working with Busy Bee makes the recruitment process that little bit easier, with a strong understanding of our business and the characteristics within candidates that we are looking for outside of what is on a job description means the CV's we receive tick a lot of boxes from the start. Rachel is my main contact and is a dream to work with, I would have no hesitation in recommending Busy Bee Recruitment.
