Natalie was extremely professional, kind and heard me out when I was looking for the change in career. She understood what I really looked for, and placed me correctly with the right firm looking to fill a role. The overall interaction was smooth, fair and balanced. I would recommend Natalie to any of my friends if they were to look for a new job.
Thank you, Francesca. You picked up the role and requirements promptly and communicated well throughout the process. The candidate was well prepared and shone during the interview process. I look forward to working with you again.
I’d also like to take the opportunity to thank you for your professionalism and expertise during the 3 outplacement sessions I had with you.
From the 1st session, you have demonstrated a deep understanding of the challenges and emotions I face due to the redundancy and offered invaluable guidance to me during this transitional period.
Your personalised approach and attention to detail were evident. You listened attentively to my concerns, questions, and provided insights and recommendations to suit my current situation and needs.
Your encouragement empowered me to stay positive, be confident and be good to myself during this challenging time.
As always, the most professional and easy experience working with Keegan Adam’s. Aoife felt more like a close colleague than someone I had only just met. I instantly felt I could trust her as she was so warm, personable, assuring and genuinely interested in your goals, needs and who you are. Not to mention, Aoife placing me so quickly helped me on a personal level. Keegan Adam’s are always fast and getting you employed ! The clients are always fantastic too. Can’t say enough great things.
I have worked with Farrah for over a year now. When recruiting it is key to me that I have a contact who communicates regularly, understands the job requirements and the culture of the company. This is what I have found with working with Farrah. Many of the candidates we have recruited through Farrah has either been offered permanency or have got their contract extended which is s testament to the quality and the cultural fit of the candidates we get. In addition, she is friendly, personable and highly responsive which makes it a pleasure to work with her.
Danielle was fantastic. She was extremely helpful and really cares. I hope to continue working with her.
