Client testimonial
Interactive have been assisting us with our recruitment for the last few months. This was despite previously having taken the business decision not to work with recruiters. We had successfully recruited through online means for a period of time.
Recently however, we have had a bigger recruitment drive for a range of different posts and after I was contacted by Greg Alton, I decided to use him for some of our more difficult positions. I would like to state that Greg is the best recruiter that I have ever worked with. He has added real value to the process and has successfully placed a number of candidates from junior to senior level with us. Greg is truly consultative.
We were recently recruiting for two Software Trainers. After some research, Greg advised us that he didn’t feel that the salary we were offering would attract the right calibre of candidates. On his advice, we raised the budget and Greg was able to introduce two excellent candidates who we hired. This information also allowed us to benchmark our internal salary scales and, as a result, we have raised the salary levels of our existing trainers commensurately. Greg’s intuitive and consultative approach not only provided us with two new valued members of the team, but also prevented us from losing other trainers to higher paid jobs elsewhere.
Greg consistently goes the extra mile and has shown an ability to deal with confidential and sensitive business information. Even whilst on holiday in Sweden, he was available on the phone to negotiate the recent appointment of a Software Product Delivery Manager. I particularly valued his ability to communicate the benefits of our company to the candidate and to overcome any doubts or misunderstandings the candidate had about the job and the nature of the industry into which we sell our software.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Greg and Interactive to other companies and look forward to a continuing mutually beneficial working relationship.
