It can sometimes be a difficult time when you entrust your job search to another, but Liz’s intuition, industry knowledge, and perception make her a leader in her field…the whole process from initial contact to final appointment was simple and timely, and only serves to illustrate the power of networks and solid professional relationships.

I thought my experience with Naomi was excellent. Naomi thoroughly went through what I could expect from the job before I applied so I could determine whether the role would be a good match for me and my career plan. She kept me updated at every step of the process.

Helen drew my attention to a specific role, she encouraged me to apply, she kept me regularly informed of the progress of my application and was thoroughly professional…I found her to be one of the most pleasant and insightful recruiters I have ever worked with (and I have been heavily involved in recruiting policy…)

I cannot recommend Naomi Widener highly enough…she demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the role for which I was applying, and informed me of precisely what the client was looking for…she diligently and consistently updated me on the status of my application, and provided much appreciated guidance. I felt she truly wanted the best for me.

I felt really supported and prepared for my in-person interview, as Naomi had gone above and beyond to discuss where my strengths and weaknesses were so I could be ready to speak to them. Now, having been in the job for about 6 months, I have found it to be a really good fit…
