Client Server Technology RecruitmentRecenzje 

Someone reached out to me on LinkedIn with a reasonably senior role I was somewhat interested in.

They called to discuss the role, but "wanted to get some details on file so they could see what else was a match for me" - I said I just wanted to hear about the role.

Next question, "why are you looking to leave X?" - I'm not, you approached me.

They wouldn't tell me anything about the role before I'd told them half a dozen things - when they asked for my salary I cut the call short.

Honestly felt like working with a recruiter 20 years ago when they were the gatekeeper.

Not sure if the role was real, or, as others said, it's just some weird data harvesting play.

I leave this review to try and dissuade companies from using Client Server Tech; they're not the recruiter you are looking for.

Edit: interesting to note the influx of 5* reviews across the last three days. Nothing suspicious about that... Don't even have the sense to spread them out organically!

I had been on the Client Server file system for quite some time as during the pandemic I had applied for one of their jobs. Little did I realise that they are the most unprofessional agency I have EVER heard of! Reasons:
1. Getting so many cold calls, I want to throw my phone away out the window.
2. Receiving so many of the same emails on repeat, yet my replies 'so happen' to go into the SPAM folder...
3. Once they do get you on the call, the line their end is bad or so they say, that they hang up!
4. Sounds to me like they are fishing for personal information without actually having ANY real jobs advertised.

By Far the worst recruitment agency not far behind Computer futures. Chester the recruitment consultant was deceitful, and full of nonsense. He clearly just re-inforces the whole nature of the organisation.
Typical Fake jobs and just chasing leads for their next commission. I would stay away from these cowboys especially a person called Chester who refused to give any details about the role

This is by far the worst recruitment I have experienced in my life. Rude, belittling, and condescending recruiters.

This initially seemed nice, then when she asked for my nationality and visa status, all hell broke loose. Her tone changed!

She immediately reduced my 5 years of experience to 2 years, stating that other years don’t count because I was a freelancer. Lol

Then she reduced my salary expectation stating that I don’t have enough experience to require that much. My goodness!

Overall, I found the interaction rude and unprofessional.

Working with David from ClientServer was an exceptional experience. His promptness and responsiveness set him apart in the recruiting field. It's rare to find someone who communicates as efficiently and effectively as he does. Highly recommend.

I’m grateful to have George Grieve from Client Server as my agent. He’s absolutely amazing. Throughout the entire recruitment process the communication I received regarding the role was brilliant and personable. I cannot fault my experience with Client Server. I would highly recommend Client Server.

The team at Client Server Australia were professional, reliable and approachable; making my life easier every step of the way. I can't thank David and the team enough, just an all round great experience!

This 'recruitment' company is hiring for jobs that are already filled, they ask you to spend hours on tests and various challenges just to cancel the interview before you can even present it to the clients. Do yourself a favor and do not apply for any roles with these amateurs unless you want to be greatly disappointed.

I have worked with Client Server for nearly 20 years. There are few recruitment companies that I could recommend as highly both for someone looking for a new role, or if your company is looking for the right person. They know people, they treat everyone in the process with respect and the entire experience is pleasant. Everyone I have dealt with at Client Server has worked hard to keep everyone informed where things are within the recruitment process, ensuring that best experience possible. Highly recommended.

Arranged an interview for me and no one showed up, when I called them they didnt pick up and I've emailed them 3 times, on the 3rd time including a few team leads and the CEO. (Edit I have put this up to a three, as someone contacted me with a very professional apology and have agreed to try again)

I've been called multiple times (most recently this afternoon) with openers about having the perfect role and pushing to run it by me, even if I've told them I'm not interested.

It's always followed by the same questions (availability, salary, hybrid/remote, industry, nationality).

Upon answering these questions, the friendly tone suddenly stops; the position has magically been filled, and they don't have anything else but will keep me on file for the future.

One of the worst recruitment agencies out there. They have no ethical standards, just a bunch of crooks with an ability to lie without blinking an eye.

Lots of fake job ads. They are blatantly lying to get your CV in their database. I'm surprised they are still in business.

I got calls and emails from them about an application I made through Indeed. I never registered to Indeed, or applied to any job recently.
Avoid them if possible

They never return, the worst agency. Never deal with them.

Worst recruitment agency I've encountered. Even though they were the once that kept reaching out to me they speak to you as if they are doing you a favour, kept passing me around between different recruiters and once you agree for them to send your application you never hear back from them. Also super pushy, I had 8 missed calls from one of the recruiters in the span of 3 days.

multiple calls from multiple “consultants” all pushing the same terrible jobs. I laughed when of them said they were doing me a favour by asking, repeatedly, for my details. It’s just another cowboy recruitment agency with a lineup of “lads” who treat you like you’re stupid. Wonder how many of their “consultants” have been to uni? Avoid.

I spoke to one of your consultants who wanted to find out more about my experience so they could shortlist jobs relevant to my experience. The call lasted about 9 minutes and he took all in fact more information from me that was really necessary. But did not send me any job spec when asked.
I requested an email back so I could have it for reference and could connect with the person for relevant roles and also as a reference for me to keep as a note of our conversation(which he made it feel was v important). But I have not received any email nothing at all which is appalling.
If you or your company needs to collect information please do not disguise your questions and then cheekily not email candidates at all. At least do the candidates a favour for the precious time they spent with you to help you understand the job market demand etc whatever you needed to do. All we ask is some respect and and email in return so we can have a reference for our conversation, it helps us find a job as well. You’re not the only people in the world whose time is precious, it’s ours too!

I applied for a role posted by Client Server, and received a call quite promptly. However, the recruiter was only interested in asking me 'form filling' questions while telling me they had 'lots' of roles for me, but wouldn't talk about the role I applied for, and asked strange questions like 'what sort of role are you looking for,' when I applied for exactly the sort of role I was looking for.

Very negative impression, told them thank you but I wasn't interested, figured that would be the end of it. Have been CONSTANTLY spammed with phone calls from the recruiter since then - about 10 in the past twelve hours, almost always hanging up as soon as I pick up the phone.

I would suggest to companies that the recruiters they hire to represent them reflect back on them.

Avoid.

I was using Client Server during a recent job search and I would never do so again, or trust them with my data again. There were several key issues:

They are more salesmen than recruiters, they tell you on the phone what they think you want to hear, when you get a copy of the actual job spec afterwards it doesn't always sound like what they described earlier.

When they think they can get something from you they will call and email you frequently until you answer but when you email them you may never get a reply.

On one occasion my CV and personal details were sent to one of the hiring companies before I gave my permission - I stated clearly that I would like to review the written job spec before they put me forward but they didn't listen.

On another occasion they called to tell me that a company I had never heard of wanted to interview me, They had actually forwarded my information without asking first and tried to gaslight me into believing we had previously discussed this company.

I tried emailing their main contact address from the website to address these concerns and have my personal data removed from their systems but it's been a few days now and still had no reply.
