Reed Recenzje 1378

Olivia Venn at Reed was brilliant from start to finish in helping me secure a fantastic local authority role. She kept me regularly updated throughout, took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for, and matched me with a role that suited me perfectly. Her communication, professionalism and support were excellent throughout the process. I would highly recommend Olivia Veen and Reed, and I would not hesitate to use them again for any future roles.

Connor S was particularly helpful.
He reached out to me with a job that was a fantastic opportunity and a great fir for me. He helped prep me for my interview and followed up afterwards.
Really supportive and helpful throughout! :)

I have been in contact with Chris Browning for a couple of years - on and off. Recently I reached out to him again as I was not happy at my current job. Within a week or two he presented a new and exciting opportunity for me, and not long after the initial interview was set up was I offered the position. I cannot thank Chris enough for his time, service and effort. He found me the most amazing role and an awesome company and I cannot wait to start this new chapter.

I had a fantastic experience with this employment agency, thanks to Nicola Godfrey! She was incredibly supportive throughout the process, putting me forward for a role that I was ultimately successful in securing.
Nicola was efficient, friendly, and always willing to help, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free.
Highly recommend!

They are scammers

I contacted Reed, staff was so rude, they said we only help people in getting jobs with prior experience. Who should tell these people, people with prior experience don't need recruitment companies, people mostly contact recruitment agencies If they are having difficulty in getting a job. Very rude staff, not recommended at all

Earlier this week, I received an email from a woman named Lucy - an area manager working at Reed. She asked me if I would be interested in a temporary role that would be starting in a few days time (two to be exact). I replied and said yes, so she phoned me and talked through the role with me and asked that I complete the necessary admin. I had to provide my right to work, references, and then general information about myself on their online portal (including bank details). Lucy asked that I completed this ASAP so that she could carry on with the next steps. I completed everything and emailed her to confirm this - and have never heard from her since.

I have never contacted a recruiter at Reed, I even asked Lucy how she got my details and she told me I came up on a search through Reed (never consented to this). On Monday, Lucy said that I would be starting the role on Wednesday (yes, two days time). To be completely ignored is both disgusting and unacceptable. Especially after she pressured me to upload my info. I understand if the role has been already filled, or she no longer thinks I would be a suitable fit - but just communicate this.

If Lucy, an area manager, acts like this, then I dread to imagine how other recruiters are acting. I would advise all to avoid Reed, they are time wasters and poor communicators. They simply lie, waste time, and take advantage of desperate people in an already cruel job market.

As an employee, I was very satisfied with my experience. Working with Nicola was truly seamless and reassuring. She is exceptionally reliable, highly professional, and incredibly supportive — always proactive and attentive to every detail. Her communication and dedication made the entire process smooth, efficient, and genuinely enjoyable. I would not hesitate to work with Reed again in the future.

After applying for several roles online, I was contacted by Reed Recruitment. Initially, communication was clear, transparent, and constructive. After accepting an alternative role, I informed them promptly, and both parties had a clear understanding of the situation.

Upon completing that assignment, I contacted them again to confirm my availability for further work. A few days later, I was informed that their compliance team had received one or more references relating to previous temporary assignments, and that my application would not be progressed.

I sought clarification regarding any concerns that may have been raised, particularly as I have maintained a professional approach throughout my roles. However, there was limited engagement or opportunity to discuss or review the matter further.

Overall, my experience was that communication became unclear and lacked timeliness at a later stage in the process.

I had a great experience working with Ross Altan whilst he helped me find a new job. He was really supportive, always available to chat through any questions I had, and genuinely interested in helping me find a new role where I would be happy. I feel Ross focusses on getting to know people and their experience so well so he knows the job will be a great fit.

I’m so grateful for all his help and couldn’t have asked for a better recruiter. Even when Ross was unwell, he still made sure one of his team members was there to check in on me which I really appreciate.

Thanks so so much Ross! 🤩

My Consultant John Deller at Reed helped secure me a role which matched very well to my experience and skills. He kept me fully informed througout the process and answered any queries I had.

My adviser Mollie at the Eastbourne branch has literally been amazing!! Incredibly Helpful, Supportive and Listens to everything i say/said in our appointments. Quick response's and in generally a lovely person to assist me to find a job. Done all 6 training course's with 'Reed' and hopefully will find a job in the next few months. Highly recommend 'Reed' to any and everyone.

Awful.

A 'Business Manager' reached out to me via LinkedIn, asking me to send across my details and CV etc. Rushing me into everything, including OH. Promised me the world, including a job for £100 a day. Sent me to a school for an 'informal chat' with no information. Unsurprisingly they then told me I didn't get the role, however I was told by the agency I was starting the "next day". I felt like it has now impacted any chance I have of securing a role at said school going forwards. Was also told that they would catch up with me the next day, however, it was 3 days later. Haven't heard anything from them since. Overall awful experience that I would not wish upon anyone.

I have also sent them a complaint email. No repsonse.

From our first phone call I felt comfortable and confident that Gail Irvine from reed Newbury would help me secure a new role. She not only took into consideration what would be the best fit for me, but found me a role where I feel I can thrive and progress. Thanks so much for all of your support Gail.

Ethel and Luke gave me the support and guidance to secure my new position. Ethel made the hiring process seamless and gave me guidance and support on the entire process. Thank you Reed and Team.

Quickly and efficiently secured me a role in my desired field. A big thanks to D'Aundre Ryan at Reed Scientific for clearly guiding me through the process, supporting my application, and ensuring I settled well into the role.

I recently secured an exciting new position with the help & guidance of Connor Stainthorpe. When Connor reached out to me on the Monday, I had been looking for a new job for months, however, he managed to secure me an interview for Thursday & by Friday I was offered the job! He has such a positive, proactive & supportive approach throughout the whole process, and his absolute commitment to the work he does is very apparent. I couldn’t recommend him enough!

I have just landed my second temp role from these guys who have also been looking out for a permanent position for me but, honestly, it's a great morale booster in the interim to get temp work. Connor Stainthorpe has been looking out for me and is always super friendly, cheerful and helpful-including with a Teams guidance session on interview prep for tips and pointers. Thanks!

Transparent

I had an incredible experience working with Yasmin Hajim and Jamie Hunter. From our first call, it was clear that they both genuinely cared about finding the right fit for me, not just filling a role. The support provided invaluable and their professionalism and dedication were exceptional throughout the entire process. Communication was first-class, and I always felt like a priority rather than just another CV.
