    "​I've recently been offered a Seasonal Plant Manager role. This would not have happened without the tireless effort of Ben Woodward and I want to commend him on going above and beyond.

    I applied for a position over a year ago but I graciously declined the position as it wasn't quite what I wanted. I asked if they would keep me in mind if anything came up in the department I wanted to work in. Ben was thorough in connecting me with several CREMs in the area where I wanted to work. As I said, this process has taken over a year but Ben has regularly touched base with me during that time and when the right role came up, he took me through the whole process again. The application has now been successful and he took so much of the stress out of the entire process. I felt completely supported and I can't thank him enough.

    Thanks again for everything and keep up the great work!"

    "​I cannot thank Felicity enough, I have used More People for several years now during my career working within garden centre retail. Felicity contacts me every six months or so to check in and see how work is going and to see if I am looking for a new challenge. I was recently looking for a new role and called MorePeople to see if they had a suitable position that they were looking to fill, I spoke to Felicity and with her help managed to secure employment in a fantastic role and could not be happier! Thank you again, I would not have found the role without you! Highly recommended, you and MorePeople are amazing!"

    "​I met Sarah following up on an open role being advertised via LinkedIn. From the start, I found Sarah highly engaging, supportive and helpful - this continued throughout the process. The interview process was across 4 stages. Prior to each stage, Sarah provided useful preparatory information and always followed up after each interview to get my view on how things went and how I felt about the role. Her feedback shared with me from the hiring company was invaluable in understanding how they felt about me and helping me to prepare for the next stage.

    At the point of offer, Sarah was great at helping the negotiations go well and I felt she was on my side through the process. Sarah continued to stay in contact after the contract was signed to ensure I was well set up for my first day. Going through any role change it is invaluable to have a supportive recruiter on your side, especially those that take a proactive approach and personal interest in getting the right fit. Sarah achieved all of these and I would certainly recommend her to other candidates."

    ​"I’d never really engaged with headhunters before, but George was so personable from the outset and instantly put me at ease. His communication throughout the process was excellent which made what could have been a very daunting experience really enjoyable, and not only did I feel supported through the interview process but George has continued to check-in with me since starting my new role. I couldn’t recommend him and the team at MorePeople highly enough. They really care, which makes them great at what they do!"

    ​"George was great to work with and has paired me up with a company I can't wait to get started working for. George reached out to me around a year ago after I left my previous position and has worked hard at finding me a job that is appropriate for my skill set and experience. George has kept me at the centre of the process from start to finish and has come up with good ideas about the different pathways I could venture into. I would highly recommend George and the team at Morepeople if anyone is looking for a change of company."

    ​Mollie contacted me after a few years since last speaking with MorePeople. She informed me of some great new opportunities in my area which would suit my academic and working experience nicely. Mollie contacted me at least weekly with updates as she got my name to all the current opportunities as well as prospective clients of which she gave me a pick list. This was excellent as I could be sure that I wouldn’t end up with interviews I didn’t want, meaning that mine, Mollies and future employers time wasn’t wasted. Mollie dealing with employers directly means that my CV doesn't get stuck in an inbox and gets the attention it needs. Subsequently, Mollie got my foot in the door with a couple of big names with one meeting with me within a short space of time. This resulted in two successful interviews which Mollie prepped me for when the time was convenient for me. Overall, I’d recommend Mollie to all my peers in the agricultural/horticultural sector who are looking for a new challenge.

Not only do they really know their stuff about all the aspects that make up the horticultural industry, they also have a passion about matching the right people up for the right roles and will go above and beyond to do this successfully. I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough and hope that they continue to help people, like me, to find there next adventure in an exciting career. Thanks guys, you really are smashing it!

    ​James is great at his job; he takes great care in getting to know you as a person and what you are looking at doing professionally. He made sure I was updated with what was happening in the hiring process. James really does care about his clients, as he has taken the time to check in with me even after I have been placed in my role. I would highly recommend working with James.

    Candidate

    ​James is a very friendly person, who has great communication style and presents as someone who takes a genuine interest in his clients and acts in their best interests. During my first conversation with James, I explained that I would be interested in hearing about any new positions, but as I was currently months away from completing my MSc, I didn’t feel that the time for me to focus on job hunting was quite right. James was excepting of this and told me that he would be in touch in a few months’ time to find out how I had got on. Months later James called me enthusiastically, about a job role, which although I hadn’t considered, he was sure that it could be a good fit for my skill set and ambition. James was very knowledgeable not only about the job role but crucially about the company, there employees and the ethos of the business. For me this was really reassuring, and I immediately felt at ease with James negotiating a first stage interview for me. At every level of the 3-stage interview process, James was very professional and with his support and mentoring he made a potentially stressful experience, one that was relatively straightforward. I am one month into my new job and within the first few weeks I have received an email from James asking my how I am settling in, something that didn’t surprise me at all, as this level of attention to detail is what I have come to expect. I have been extremely satisfied with the help, assistance and support that James has provided me in my search to secure a new job and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending James at Morepeople to friends and colleagues in the future.

    ​Aidan has been the most helpful in preparing me for my interviews with JHFarming these past few weeks. He gave me the confidence boost I needed to get me through this first job interview since moving to the UK a month ago. I was quite intimidated by the field before Aidan's reassurance and am most pleased to say, I am extremely happy with the services of this company. And lastly to Aidan, I would like to personally thank for his superb communication skills and ability to comfort me along the way. Needless to say I landed the job and I am grateful to have been so well taken care of.

    ​Will recruited me for a Packhouse Change Manager role. His professionalism, words of encouragement, honesty and the preparations of the entire process helped me obtain this new job. He ensured I was kept informed every step of the way and gave me all the information required to be successful. Will is one of the best recruiters I have dealt with. Incredibly talented, never missed a follow-up call, and a genuine pleasure to work with. An absolute credit to professionalism. If I will ever need a recruiter again, he would be the one I would not hesitate to approach first.
