  • ​“Rehana was both friendly and professional the whole way through the process. She put me at ease and ensured I was well prepared for the interview. Rehana took into consideration all my requirements and matched me to a role that was exactly right for me and my circumstances. I would definitely recommend her to others.”

  • ​“Rehana was one of 5 recruiters to try and offer me a job, but was the only one to actually ask me about where I’d like to work and genuinely listened. She used her contacts and experience within the industry to land me the exact job I wanted, with the company I’ve wanted to work for, for a long time - so her results speak for themself. Rehana was a dream to work with from start to finish and if I ever decide to move jobs in the future I will look no further than her.”

  • "​Ashlea spent three years trying to contact me - that is tenacity!! It paid off because when I was ready to leave my job her name was very familiar to me, so I was happy to have a chat. She does her homework and does not try to fit a round circle into a square hole. She actually takes time and care in selecting the right candidates for the roles she has and therefore both parties are happy with the outcome. She was incredibly professional and responsive making sure that the interview and enrolment process was moving forwards quickly. She builds rapport easily and consequently, I find her very easy to talk to. Would highly recommend. Thank you Ashlea - I am happy to be working again!"
