“Richard came to work for me almost by accident, having been referred to me by his girlfriend (now wife) who had come for the position that he went onto secure. I instantly warmed to him as soon as we met and lured him away from the Kitchen where he was a chef at the time. Richard came in and took direction well and got up to speed as a Temps controller in no time, highly capable of putting in the volume of calls and client visits required to make a name for himself in the market. I was so thrilled with Richard’s progress that after a year or so I decided to entrust him with taking over the day to administration of the IBM Headquarters account. Overseeing that quality was not compromised and still supplying alot of the Qualified Accountants for him to place, Richard took to the role as Account Handler with ease, he relinquished me having to be onsite so much by taking on more responsibility and progressed to filling the Qualified roles by himself. He was able to gain respect of the senior candidates and the senior managers at IBM. Richard left Hays to join a Hays client actually, another account that I happily handed over and although I was no longer his manager at this point, I was sad to see that he was no longer in the offices I so often worked from. When it comes to the role of professionalism and recruitment, Richard comes highly recommended!”
