Massively positive experience with Jordan Burns and VANRATH. Couldn't recommend highly enough! I detailed exactly what I was after in a new role and Jordan came back only with roles that ticked every box which is what really set them apart from some other agencies, no retrofitting or compromise to a role that you are not quite the right fit for - just roles that were exactly what I had said would suit my preferred working style.

Sean was incredibly helpful and really understood what I was looking for and my motivations. Something that really impressed me is that he knew his clients well enough, so much so that although I didn't have the experience the client was looking for, he recognized the transferable skills that they value and managed to arrange an interview for me within a matter of hours.

From sending my CV to being placed in the role Chanel was great. At every stage I was well informed on every aspect of the application process. Very friendly and professional service. Would use Vanrath again with no issues
