”

In my view if you are selecting a recruitment agency to work with there are a few key competencies to look for:

A willingness to take the time to understand both the candidate and client need;

A flexible approach and the desire to work in partnership, with the client and candidate, to ensure successful completion of the assignment;

A professional two way approach which provides the candidate with a fair and positive impression of the client and the client with an accurate picture of the candidates ability and fit for the role.

I believe that Eden Scott is an agency which consistently demonstrates these competencies and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to you, either as a provider or representative.

What clients think of us“When we required to fill both temporary and permanent vacancies we turned to Eden Scott as a well respected and efficient provider of recruitment services.

From first contact they provided a first class service and in fact managed to fill a role which due to our location had proved very difficult.

On the temporary role they quickly grasped the details of the brief and provided an excellent candidate.

We are delighted with the service provided by Eden Scott and would have no hesitation in recommending their services to any organisation requiring the services of an efficient and effective recruitment organisation.”

“When we needed a person with a unique blend of skills to fill a challenging role within our organisation, we turned to Eden Scott for their experience and business like approach to filling this vacancy.

We were impressed with the efficient service and attention to detail. They listened to what we had to say, pre selected the candidates for interview, and briefed them properly about what we were looking for in this role.

We felt that we got the right candidate in post within our extremely tight timescale; this would not have been possible without the professionalism and experience of Eden Scott.”

What candidates think of us“I was very impressed with Eden Scott during the time I dealt with them.  They informed me of all the vacancies they had that suited what I was looking for and were very efficient in their follow-up to potential employers. They were very encouraging and helpful when it came to interview and gave useful hints and tips that helped me secure my new job. Eden Scott has been the most professional recruitment agent I have worked with and I would recommend them to others in the future.”

“The factor that differentiated Eden Scott from other similar organisations was their ability to interface an exceptionally detailed understanding of the specific job requirements and the prevailing corporate culture within the client company against the strengths and weaknesses of the candidate which in my own case delivered a very focused and shortened interview process.

From start to finish they handled the matter with the correct balance of professionalism and commercial acumen ensuring the best possible outcome for all parties.

I would be delighted to recommend Eden Scott .”
