TPP has provided a professional and proactive service to identify suitable candidates for a hard to fill vacancy in a challenging recruitment market.
I have recruited several members of staff for short term positions from TPP over the last year or so and currently have 3 working in my team. The service from TPP has been fantastic thanks to Chan Barnaby. I have sought temporary staff twice in recent weeks and both times TPP were far faster than any other agency I contacted.
For anyone looking for niche specialist talent I strongly recommend Rachel at TPP. She'll find you the best talent and guide you through the whole process, including managing interview and juggling offers. Rachel guides clients to the right hiring decisions but never pushes. She’s super quick to respond, always willing to discuss even last thing on a Friday evening.
It was fantastic to work with Siobhan, personally a warm, friendly and empathetic person; professionally, Siobhan worked incredibly hard to meet our needs, meet agreed deadlines, share information and, most importantly, be open and honest. Really enjoyed working with her and really pleased with the excelled candidate appointed with her help.
A few years ago I had a successful recruitment from TPP into my team which is why I persuaded HR to allow us to use you again. This whole process this time around has only reinforced that view. Your communication, your pinpoint advice and guidance has paid off. You have solved a problem for me and this is something that cannot be underestimated.
