Yvette is a results oriented and reliable consultant.

Candidate
George

Yvette is an outstanding recruiter. I trust her judgement implicitly and her network of candidates is second to none.

Client
Caro

It is indeed my pleasure to thank Yvette Harrison for her contribution. Thanks to Yvette, my Job hunt hasn’t gone through much hassle. Yvette is adept in this technical recruitment arena, exhibiting professionalism, reliable communication and charisma.

I recall my experience with her when she identified my expectations and skill sets to match the right employer. Beyond the recruitment process, she even took personal care in my career path and gave consultation on what would suit me the best, especially as an immigrant in this soil.

Thanking once again for her contribution, I would highly recommend Yvette for candidates seeking opportunities in the operations and continuous improvement field.

Client
Pat

It was a pleasure to have Yvette as my recruiter in securing my first role after finishing my studies. She was always a delight to speak to, and she regularly contacted me to discuss how I was finding my role.

Candidate
Sumedha

I had the opportunity of working closely with Yvette on several recruitment assignments at my previous company (Griffins Foods Ltd). I found her to be a person with whom I could relate to easily on a professional level. She has indepth experience and expertise in her chosen field hence the great calibre of quality candidates she had placed within the business who had a huge impact on driving improved performance.

I found that Yvette's level of service delivery was impecable especially at times when the the markets were low on good candidates. Sshe would find them for me....we are still in touch and I would continue to engage her services should I require them in the future and have no hesitation recommending her to other business.

Client

"I have dealt with many recruiters in my time - Yvette is by far the most communicative, understanding of my needs / requirements and technically sound. Excellent experience"

Candidate
Ken

Yvette has quite literally gone the extra mile for me. She has applied her vast experience in recruiting to sift out the very essence of who I am and what qualities would best suit both her clients' needs and my aspirations. Not one to stand on ceremony, she is efficient and honest in her appraisal of my capabilities. This has given me great confidence that she can place me in a role that I will thrive in.

Candidate
Bradly

It is an absolute pleasure to talk about Yvette H. and her recruitment services. I have the opportunity to meet Yvette approximately two years ago in a recruitment process. It was a remarkable moment in my personal life and career when I was looking for a change. She gave me such good advice and recommendations to be more assertive in my search and helped me to find the ideal job. She`s highly dedicated, insightful, analytical, technical, and empathetic. She goes beyond the classical `Recruiter` role, being completely honest and transparent through the process. I highly recommend Yvette to my friends looking for a better opportunity in their careers.

Candidate
Filipe

Yvette demonstrated exceptional dedication, insightfulness, analytical skill, technical proficiency, and empathy in my recruitment process. She definitely exceeds the traditional expectations of a 'Recruiter,' consistently maintaining honesty and transparency throughout the entire process. I'm extremely thankful that our paths crossed. I highly recommend Yvette Harrison as a recruiter for her excellent guidance and expertise.
