Candidate Testimonals
We also ensure we receive feedback from all
our candidates that are offered placements - both permanent
and temporary. Sometimes we even receive feedback from people
we haven't yet placed. Here are some of our feedback:
Candidate A
"Arras are the first recruitment consultancy
that respond to any request in good time, and within the timescales
promised""The contact, feedback and encouragement
from start to finish was superb""Very thorough with
job interview assistance etc."
Candidate B
'Most other agencies I have dealt with do not
have a firm grasp on what the client is looking for and instead
just churn out the job description word-for-word. The consultant
had a good idea of the role and was in a position to judge
my suitability for it rather than just acting as a middleman
for CVs''The consultant is the most informed consultant I
have dealt with.'
Candidate C
'you are one of the few recruiters who respond
in person and promptly' and 'excellent service'
Candidate D
'I have to admit that my previous experience
of recruitment agencies has been disappointing. This said,
your help and cooperation in providing information promptly
and giving helpful feedback has been outstanding and is greatly
appreciated.'
 Candidate E
'.....you are one of the few recruiters who
respond in person and promptly (3 minutes). Excellent service.'
Candidate F
'.....You obviously believe in clear,
regular communication (the type that you would expect within
an operational project or programme environment). This may
seem natural given what you do, however many of your competitors
do not do this! From what I have seen so far Arras seem a
great organisation to work with and I look forward to having
the opportunity to discuss appropriate roles with you in the
future'

Candidate G
'.....Just wanted to say what a refreshing
difference it makes talking to someone who understands the
client / role and also has the ability to determine the real
requirements. It is a shame that more agencies cannot operate
in this manner- you guys are doing a good job for all concerned.'
Candidate H
'.....Personal service without superficiality.
Very quick, responsive and helpful. No pressure to be placed
in the wrong job. Consultant very good at determining strengths
and weaknesses to make you better prepared for interview.'
Candidate I
"....Can I say I think you are the most
thorough and professional recruiter I've spoken to since I
started my search."
Candidate J
"....By far the best recruitment consultancy
I have had the pleasure to deal with out of nearly 30 consultancies
over the last two years."
Candidate K
"You've been very helpful - I've worked with a number of agencies from both sides in the last few years, and you've been exceptionally helpful in responding to queries, your interview preparation and follow up"
Candidate L
I just wanted to thank you again for your time today.
It's so refreshing to have a recruiter who cares about peoples futures. I will pass your details on to any friends (with the relevant experience!) looking for new positions.
