“Words can’t express how grateful I am”

I want to say a BIG thank you!
For a long time through the pandemic I struggled finding an employer worth all my hard work that met my requirements. Thankfully I finally found my new role through SFR Recruitment Solutions. The application process was really simple compared other recruiters who had long winded registration processes. I feel like I was really listened to about what I was looking for in my next employer and that my needs were met. I really enjoy working in my new role and can see myself here for a long time. Words can’t express how grateful I am for this job which contributes to my happiness and well-being! Would recommend SFR to anyone serious about their career.

“I would highly recommend Matt both to any candidate or employer looking at recruitment”

Matt contacted me earlier this year with regards to a vacancy he was working on with a leading Door hardware manufacturer and I just wanted to say.…what a delight to work with. He kept me informed and up to date throughout the process. Needless to say, it was a match and I was delighted to accept the offer. I have previously used consultants and can honestly say I would highly recommend Matt both to any candidate or employer looking at recruitment. He is the consummate professional and well respected and placed to provide solutions in what is a very competitive environment. Well worth your time getting to know.

All the best Matt and I look forward to keeping in touch.

After getting to know Matthew at SFR Recruitment and telling him my career aspirations, they were clearing listening hard as they were able to find me the perfect role!  The recruitment process from start to finish was highly professional and I was kept fully informed throughout.

“I recommend Matthew and SFR”

Matthew phoned me after seeing my CV and we had a long chat about my history and skills set. He then pitched a job to me which was outside of my normal trade but after fully explaining the role and the company I had the confidence to proceed with the application.

Following a long but enjoyable Teams meeting I was offered the position, quite a surprise! Matthew answered my questions and concerns and organised for me to visit the company before making up my mind.

I recommend Matthew and SFR as he was so understanding and helpful, not at all pushy as some other agencies can be. Matthew also communicated well and was a complete pleasure to deal with.

“I Found Matthew Professional”

I’m delighted to write this testimonial regarding SFR Recruitment Solutions.

I Found Matthew Professional. He is very experienced in his field.

His advice, encouragement and knowledge towards pre-interviews whether this is face to face or via a Teams meeting is exceptional. You would have to go a long way to find another Recruitment company as good as SFR.

Phil Mead – Specification Consultant –  Hafele

I would definitely recommend SFR

Shortly after sending my CV to SFR Recruitment Solutions I received a phone call from Matthew advising that he had several positions available that could be of interest to me and one specific role, with a market leading company, that was a very good match to my experience.

Shortly after the initial web interview, Matthew followed up with myself and the employer in question, which then led to a face to face interview and an offer of employment shortly after that. The whole process didn’t take long and Matthew was readily available if I had any questions as well as offering valuable insight and guidance throughout the entire process. 

I would definitely recommend SFR if you are looking for your next role to progress your career and would score them 10 out of 10.

“Jamie was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him”

Jamie reached out to me suggesting he had a role which might be perfect for me.

And thankfully he wasn’t one of those recruiters who spoke a load of twaddle, he really did have a great role for me.
At every stage through the recruitment process Jamie was there to offer any support and advice required.
Jamie was always quick to respond, and if he didn’t know the answer immediately, he would go and find the answer.
Jamie was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him.
So, if you’re reading this and Jamie has just reached out about a role, listen to him, it could be the next step in your career.

Thank you again Jamie!

“Matthew was in great contact from start to finish”

SFR have been outstanding in getting me my new role. For a few years I was in a rut looking for roles to get me back into the area I was in before Covid.

SFR picked out my CV and matched it to a role they had. Matthew was in great contact from start to finish.

I had a presentation to do and Matthew even reviewed it beforehand and was genuine in making comments which were great and once adjusted, made the presentation the best it could be which aided in me getting the role.

I am now so much happier and looking forward to my new adventure! Thank you to all at SFR.

“I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jamie and or the SFR team. As a candidate, I felt there were no unanswered questions, no push to explore roles that didn’t match my “wants” and excellent communication and support throughout the process. “

Jamie proactively approached me to discuss my employment situation. In this very natural conversation, we spoke in depth about my motivations, aspirations and what roles and cultures would be the best match for these. Using this profile, Jamie was able to advise on a number of suitable roles, but together, we selected a company that mirrored my values. 

I was supplied with a very compressive job description, a good overview of the company and where I would fit into this. I felt that I understood what the client wanted and how best to match my skills to this. The interviews went ahead as scheduled with good and timely feedback provided at every step of the journey with no unreturned calls or emails at all.  With his advice and assistance we secured a great role with a great company working for a great manager with an above expected package offered!
