Testimonials
We're happy because we've pleased our clients:
I was impressed with Duncan at PCR because many recruitment consultants just seem to send CV's out without really knowing the people concerned. When I used PCR this time Duncan seemed to know the candidates personally and this made a big difference as he was able to make some recommendations based on their personalities as well as their skill set.
Nikki Lushington
Broadcast Manager
"Catherine is a very personable and professional person who works hard to provide a quality service. She is well organised and communicates in a timely and clear manner."
Derek Hill
Playout Engineering Manager
"We enjoy working with PCR as they have demonstrated understanding of our requirements throughout various placements. Both, contract and permanent consultants always liaise with us with excellent professionalism.
They sold our company very well to candidates and equally put forward some interesting people which have been of great asset to our projects"
Michaela Joseph
Studio Manger
"Catherine is one of the very few recruiters that actually listens and understands the needs of Broadcasters - and one that treats you as a human being, not just as next month's bonus package! I have used Catherine's skills both as a candidate and also as a recruiter, and she has been flawless on every occasion offering support and advice."
Max Eave
Head of Engineering
"PCR are an extremely capable and effective agency, providing a quality and fast response. In particular Jane Abbott has a great understanding of our business and the specific requirements we have - questioning the detail of a role and sense-checking what we are looking for in candidates. Those put forward are always of a high calibre and well qualified. Unlike other agencies, I never feel like I will be sold on an under qualified candidate just to get the job done."
Niall McOnegal
New Media Director
"Catherine's approach as a recruiter is not only highly professional but personal also; this has placed her very high in my expectations as a shining example of what a recruitment consultant should strive to be, as well as in the quality of service they should provide. I have always found Catherine to be an extremely personable & motivated person, her passion & expertise in the recruitment sector is second to none, she has always gone out of her way in supporting career moves for me which have always been greatly appreciated. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Catherine & the guys at PCR as an excellent solution to today's recruitment challenges."
Carl Powell
Senior Project Manager
"We are pleased to have PCR as our sole supplier for IT roles in the UK; they provide us with a high calibre of candidates and a consistently professional level of service."
Gemma Copping
HR Administrator
"Having used PCR to source contract IT staff many years ago, I was pleased to find that not only were there many of the same people working there, the quality of service was still excellent. I was particularly impressed with PCR's attention to detail when understanding the skills I was looking for. PCR supplied us with three very high quality candidates, and compared to the other nationally known agencies we tried, PCR delivered upon their promises, while the others were left wanting."
Jason Randall
IT Manager
"PCR provides us with well-screened, well-prepared candidates for our technical roles, saving us valuable time. They understand our business and do an excellent job selling our company to potential candidates."
Ms C O'D
HR Manager
"Jane worked hard to establish an understanding of the job - despite my reluctance to spend the time she persisted in a firm but very polite way. This ensured that the candidates had a good fit to the perceived requirement. Calls were returned and there was reliable, honest feedback about the process and the candidates. Great stuff - will definitely use PCR next time!"
Mr AP-G
Partner
"I already know, after using PCR only twice, that I am dealing with the professionals. The service is significantly above average - my requirements are thoroughly analysed and verified, I am kept up to date with progress, the screening process ensures that I receive a shortlist of suitable, quality candidates. The process is efficient, comprehensive and fast, and I feel that the PCR team demonstrate a commitment to getting things right first time. I am dangerously close to saying that recruiting new staff could become a pleasurable task."
Ms RS
IS Manager
"I'd just like to record my appreciation for the way PCR and your consultant Jane Abbott have helped us successfully place a new developer. The things that made this a good experience were:
- Only sending us relevant CVs to look at
- Only arranging interviews with very good candidates - two in our case, either one of which we would be happy to take and did in fact take one of those
- Staying in touch, but not pestering me. A very important balance to achieve and you did
- It is also clear from the review that you did an enormous amount of background work to achieve the result.
I would balance the above with negative feedback also, but in truth I have none. I'm sure we will do business in the future."
Dr JH
Technical Director
"Just a note to say thank you to you and your colleagues at PCR for all you hard work over the recent year. It has been a pleasure working with PCR. We have been very impressed by your speed and efficiency providing excellent quality IT resources to our rapidly evolving team. You have shown great sensitivity in the understanding of our business needs, requirements and changes, which goes above and beyond our expectations of any service or resource supplier. We hope to continue to work with you in the future and strongly recommend you to all but our competitors!"
Mr GL
IT Director Northern Europe
"PCR gave us a personal and professional service, taking time out to listen carefully to our requirements before proceeding with recruitment. They reduced our own workload considerably by screening a large number of candidates before presenting us with a strong shortlist of candidates."
Mr PC
Development Manager
"We have been using PCR to recruit for us for over 3 years now. They have consistently been able to fill our vacancies with suitably qualified and experienced candidates and have been able to do so by presenting a small number of CVs, resulting in much less time wasted considering unsuitable applicants. I have found PCR to be nothing but professional, honest, prompt and reliable and pleasant to deal with and would have no hesitation in recommending their services."
Mr SL
European Network Manager
"Thank you for finding our latest recruit, it has been a pleasure working with you."
Mr GS
VP of Product Development
"You're the best! I needed a DBA within three weeks. Within three days I had the CV of the guy I wanted. Three days later I had the interview and he started next week. Fantastic! One phone call, one CV, one interview and I got the DBA."
Mr P McL
Database Manager
"I was very happy with the service provided by you especially by your effort to understand correctly my needs for the vacancy profile - this always in a very non intrusive and professional way. I would certainly get in touch with you should I need to fill a new position in the future."
