Ryan Willis, Adam Beattie and all the Team
The team here had working relationships with companies and this made the recruitment experience highly effective. They communicated daily with me, kept me informed and double checked that our requirements and intensions were always aligned. I enjoyed the quick, effective, honest and communication centric approach to helping me secure a new position with a great company. Thank you.
Responsive and Informative
My recruiter, Jack, was lovely to talk to throughout the application process for my role. They were very responsive and made sure I was updated (via phone and email) with the progress of the application at each stage of the process.
Brilliant experience with Luke Sandford
I'm just about to start a new position as a software engineer at BAE Systems digital intelligence and have Luke to thank for it.
I really enjoyed my time working with Luke to secure this position. He is a very genuine sound individual who could have a bit of banter but also took the time to really understand where I wanted to take my career and provide me with a range of options on how to get there. Luke has strong personal and communication skills with good industry knowledge.
During the process, Luke continuously keep me informed and caught up with me to understand my thoughts and where I was. Throughout the interview process, he gave good guidance and support on what to expect and how to prepare and put me in touch with relevant people to help me reach my decision. Additionally, he was able to help negotiate a stronger package than was initially offered.
I highly recommend Luke and will be pointing a couple of my friends toward Anson McCade.
Excellent experience with Luke Sandford
I recently started a new role at BAE systems and I couldn't have got the role without Luke.
I was impressed by his ability to understand my career goals, skills, and aspirations. Luke took the time to delve deep into my professional background, asked insightful questions that helped to gain a comprehensive understanding of my strengths and ambitions. This level of personalized attention made me feel valued and assured me that I was in good hands.
Throughout the interview process, Luke provided valuable guidance and support throughout, from polishing my resume and preparing for interviews to negotiating the best compensation package on my behalf when I got an offer. This was especially valueable for me since this was an area I struggled with the most.
I would highly recommend Luke and Anson McCade for anyone lookig for a new role.
Exceptional Recruiter Experience with Jack McNeilly
I recently had the privilege of working with Jack McNeilly as my recruiter, and I cannot praise him enough for his outstanding professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for my job search. Jack went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and successful experience, and I am truly grateful for his remarkable assistance.
From the very beginning, Jack demonstrated his expertise and knowledge of the industry. He took the time to understand my career goals, skills, and aspirations, allowing him to tailor his approach and identify the perfect opportunities for me. Jack's insightful guidance throughout the entire process was invaluable.
One of the standout qualities of Jack is his exceptional communication skills. He consistently kept me informed and updated about the progress of my job search, promptly responding to any questions or concerns I had. Jack's responsiveness was truly impressive; he always made himself available and ensured that I felt supported at every step of the way.
What sets Jack apart is his commitment to going the extra mile. He genuinely cared about my success and invested additional effort to assist me in any way he could. Whether it was providing interview preparation tips, arranging mock interviews, or sharing valuable industry insights, Jack's dedication and personalised approach were unparalleled.
Active support
Active communication from company. Speedy organisation. Follow up calls. Apologises and admits when they made a mistake.
Has provided support and follow up for multiple issues.
Great experience with George Halsey
I am looking for work in investment industry and George is my partnering recruiter. George understands my situation well and able to look for potential good fits. He understands the hiring team's expectation in depth and able to provide useful guidance on what to expect in the interview. He is also very friendly, patient, resourceful and supportive throughout the process. I will highly recommend George and his firm Anson McCade as a recruiting partner!
Zack McCall
Zack McCall, recruitment legend, super easy to work with and a joy to communicate with. He has been very personable and upfront, unlike a lot of recruiters who I’ve found to be cold and generic. Zack was always able to answer my questions in an honest but professional way and tailored the recruitment process to suit me and to ease any specific worries I had about my latest career move.
He was very quick and attentive when it came to communication - always letting me know if and when he wouldn’t be around and introducing me to people who would be covering him (like Luke and Stephen - who were also excellent). But usually responding super fast on the phone and by email.
I’ve already started recommending Zack (and Anson McCade) to other colleagues who I know are interested in making a move and would recommend him to anyone in the same position without hesitation.
Just a shame that I really love my new job and probably won’t get to work with him again 😭
A fantastic experience from Mark and…
A fantastic experience from Mark and Peter to guide me through the application process and to take a complex negotiation to fruition. Could not recommend more.
Top Notch Agency for Cyber Security Professionals
Through the services of Anson McCade I was able to get the opportunity and successfully complete my transition to a great new venture with a fantastic organisation as my next step in my career. Erin McGinn was my agent throughout the process and she proved to be absolutely brilliant. She always kept me up to date throughout the process and catered to my requirements carefully selecting client's best suited to my capabilities. I'd certainly recommend Erin highly as an agent for anyone looking for a cyber security role in the industry.
Amazing Recruiter Jamie Mccrum
Amazing Recruiter who supported and had regular chats for a smooth transition to a new job. Jamie Mccrum not only provided a bridge between myself and the company but also allowed me to raise all my concerns and questions and get resolutions instantly. Thank you Jamie!
Brilliant recruiter with successful career results
I highly recommend Anson McCade as a recruiter. I've not had much experience interacting with recruiters, but Anson McCade was amazing from the start. I applied for an opportunity for a global tech firm via the website and was soon connected with Luke Sandford, who guided me closely through every stage. Luke went further to support me with hints, tips, and best approaches in the recruitment and interview processes to ensure I had the best chance of success, which I did. Thanks to Luke and the team, I have now been accepted and started my new role. Thanks again, Anson McCade!
Very hands kn
I was looking for work in the finance industry and worked mostly with Will Cristobal. Will was very meticulous and transparent. He is very knowledgeable about the job market and took my needs and preferences deeply into account and gave me precise and actionable advice. There is nothing I would fix in his approach.
James and Adam did an outstanding job
I had a excellent recruitment experience working with James and Adam
The entire recruitment process was professional.
I've had quite a bit of negative experience with recruiters which wasn't the case with them.
James listened to what I was looking for in a job and made sure it seemed like a good fit and gave me excellent support during the interview process.
As well as afterwards keeping me informed on processes.
I didn't feel like I was just potential candidate #12345.
I highly recommend!
It was very comfortable communication
Brilliant experience with Michael Finch at Anson McCade
My candidate experience at Anson McCade was outstanding. Michael Finch (my recruitment consultant) identified an opportunity that was a really good match for my skills and experience. He talked to me at length about the opportunity and what to expect in the assessment process. Michael was very friendly, helpful, reliable and professional throughout the entire process. He was very supportive and provided lots of great advice. Michael really went above and beyond to ensure that everything was understood and in frequent contact at every stage of the application process. Excellent service all round. Thank you Michael and Anson McCade!
Great people
Great people! George and Daniel have been very helpful!
Great experience with recruiters at Anson McCade
I have engaged with a number of recruitment agencies and recruiters in the past but my experience with Anson McCade has been the best by far. Luke Sandford approached me about an exciting opportunity with a global digital technology firm, he was friendly and helpful from the outset. He supported me through each step of the recruitment process to ensure I was prepped and had the best chance possible. I have now started my new role thanks to Luke and his team. Highly recommend!
Supported me through the whole process
Supported me through the whole process, Sophie was exceptional. Excellent all round
Thank you Fredrick Joshua Pereira - agent 001 in my universe
You are not just seeking people for a job. You are seeking a job for a person. You reached out to an ordinary girl with an ordinary job and with no idea what she wants in life and you made her into a assistent vice president in a big bank. But more importantly, you found her a healthy cosy friendly "place in the sun" where she is happy and appriciated.
You are smart, adapt, cunning... You are a kind, warm person that makes things always seem brighter. You are dedicated and you respond with friendliness and sympathy to stupid questions at 11pm. And you stand by your candidates even after they get the job, just in case they have more stupid questions at 11pm.
Thank you Fredrick Joshua Pereira.
Would never have made it without you.
