Read what some of the Orchard Recruitment Candidate Testimonials have to say about the service they received below:

“I couldn’t recommend a consultant more.”

Having worked with Lucy only for a short time, she supported me throughout my time working with her. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, I was made redundant from the same company however she continued supporting me by finding me a new role which I am so happy in now. I couldn’t recommend a consultant more.

“I wish to thank everyone at Orchard for their professional, friendly service in finding me new employment.”

As a Housing Officer of 13 years I decided to look for a new job as my current employer was unable to reduce the house. Approaching 60, it felt very daunting to be looking for a new job but found what seemed the perfect job Orchard Recruitment had advertised, working for a local Estate Agents, just 2 days per week.
From the first conversation with Graham and meeting him in person I was soon put to ease. Graham managed to arrange an interview that afternoon at Barnfields Estate Agents and they reported back to him that I was ‘fabulous’, not a word I had ever been described as!
Four weeks later and now 60 I went for a second interview and was delighted to hear the next day that I had been offered the position as an Audio Typist.
I wish to thank everyone at Orchard for their professional, friendly service in finding me new employment.

“Graham kept in contact and prepared me well for the interview.”

Larger companies treat you as a number and do not care. Graham kept in contact and prepared me well for the interview.
Even though I didn’t meet with Graham I was treated as an individual. Graham even kept in contact whilst he was away on holiday.
Well done Graham and Karla for helping me to move on to the job I wanted!

“The staff at Orchard are professional, efficient, pleasant and straightforward.”

Orchard Recruitment deserves the highest acolade.
I am very pleased with their service and dedication. I was given my first assignment and after a few weeks I was offered full time employment.
The staff at Orchard are professional, efficient, pleasant and straightforward. I was perfectly briefed on my assignment by Kelly and was offered helpful advice. Wages were always paid on time and correctly, and always felt well cared for by Karen. I would encourage anyone local to Orchard Recruitment to try your service. Your firm being local and independent is important to me, not only is it practical but going to a firm which is different to what’s offered on the high street is very refreshing. Thank you so much, I really appreciate all your assistance!

“Kelly made me feel at ease. In fact, she had already done her research on my CV and a job was lined up for me…”

I cannot thank you enough for the way I was treated. Being out of work at the age of 52 can seem a bit daunting. In my eyes there is no improvement needed!
From the moment I walked into Orchard Recruitment, Kelly made me feel at ease. In fact, she had already done her research on my CV and a job was lined up for me that matched my skills and expertise.
I have registered with many recruitment agencies but the support of those has been appalling in my eyes. I thank you so much and will be spreading the word to friends and family if ever needed in the future.

Denise.

“I couldn’t have hoped to be treated any better, a true credit with a professional attitude throughout.”

I truly felt that Orchard’s staff were more like friends supporting me through the entire process than a typical recruitment agency.
Well-deserved 5 stars!
Graham was encouraging, supportive and extremely communicative throughout the entire process. A very friendly and helpful person who certainly makes what Orchard is all about. I couldn’t have hoped to be treated any better, a true credit with a professional attitude throughout.
I would recommend anyone in the market for a new role to stop what they’re doing visit www.orchardjobs.com. Best wishes to the entire team and thank you once again!

“Orchard Recruitment and Graham are a brilliant company and I would recommend them to anyone…”

The level of commitment shown by Graham and his team was second to none. He knew I was a fit for Vertical Leisure, so he worked tirelessly to meet me and get me in front of the Managing Director.
I’ve spent a lot of time working with recruiters in the past and have come across many who are just out for themselves. On the other hand, Graham knows his clients and his candidates and if you are the right fit for his client he will endeavour to get you your dream job as he has done for me!
Orchard Recruitment and Graham are a brilliant company and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a new position.

“Communication was frequent and clear, information was accurate and timely and the entire process was a pleasure…”

In my job search, I was approached by Graham at Orchard Recruitment. He and the team were extremely professional and friendly, with a genuine interest in what I wanted from my next role.
They found an excellent position for me, coached me on how to best present myself and gave flawless advice on the organisation I was applying to.
This kind of service can only come from a long and quality association with an organisation, which I could sense as soon as I met Graham.
Communication was frequent and clear, information was accurate and timely and the entire process was a pleasure compared to some other experiences I have had with different recruiters.

“…I’ve always had a good feeling about being in the ‘right hands’ and since then you’ve made me feel a valued and valid candidate…”

I just wanted to sincerely thank you for the highly professional treatment received from you upon applying for the Commercial Manager position.
From my initial contact with you I’ve always had a good feeling about being in the ‘right hands’ and since then you’ve made me feel a valued and valid candidate for the position offered.
Unlike other agencies who seem to act more like salesman you’ve managed to evaluate both my personality and abilities and have guided me perfectly through each interview stage, helping me to achieve the final objective – I got the job!

Jon.

“…this is honestly the best service I have had from an agency…”

I would first like to say a maaaaasive thank you for all your efforts, and the rest of the Orchard team for securing this role for me, this is honestly the best service I have had from an agency, and I would like to express how grateful I am.

“…thank you again for all your hard work in helping me…”

I applied for a job through Orchard Recruitment online. Response was fast, accurate and Monika was designated as my main person of contact. She was lovely, very friendly and always available to contact if needed. After exchanging a few emails, I was invited into the agency to meet with Graham. I even got a lift to the interview which was incredibly nice of Graham to do!

Orchard Recruitment are a very good team, they work very hard to help people find suitable jobs and make sure the candidates know about the company before the interview. All contact, which was mainly done through email, was quick and prompt. My application was successful and I started my new job in the New Year. Thanks Orchard Recruitment for everything you have done!

“This is recruitment consulting as it should be, from an exemplary company who I would wholeheartedly recommend.”

I have had to do with many recruitment consultants in my time, but my recent dealings with Orchard and specifically Graham Martin, has been the pinnacle of it all.
I am very glad to have secured a great new post and can honestly say that it was due to Graham and his diligent efforts on my behalf.
From our first telephone contact I knew that I was in the presence of someone who was passionate about what he did and did it very well. This was borne out throughout the entire process and I cannot fault the brisk efficiency of the entire team at Orchard.
This is recruitment consulting as it should be, from an exemplary company who I would wholeheartedly recommend.
