Foundation Recruitment took the stress out of recruiting our newest team member. From helping to get the specs right, to delivering the best possible candidates to the interviews on time and properly prepared - they made the whole process much more successful and efficient. Having someone who knows about our business and the nature of the posts we need to fill, not only saves so much time, but ensures we get the best possible choice of candidates.

Foundation Recruitment has been a great choice throughout my career search which is solely down to the dedicated and resourceful consultants that take huge initiative for getting one into the desired role. My consultants helped me tremendously, they coached me through a lengthy and difficult interview process and always made sure I got feedback on the same day - providing smooth contact between the firm and myself. Having their number on speed dial has been the best decision this year! Foundation were instrumental in getting me a highly sought after position with arguably one of the best firms in the industry, a dream for anyone just out of school, both in terms of experience and financial benefits. I can only recommend them to anyone in the industry looking for a step-up in their career - they will get the job done and only recruit for the best names in the sector!

From my Consultant's first approach on, I felt very well taken care of and the communication was always effective and quick. Whenever I had a question I could count on getting an immediate response over the phone or via email. Through this - from the first contact to multiple interviews and to sign the contract - took merely three weeks. Tharsika sparked my interest in the position (as I did not have direct experience in this field), did the pre-selective talks and helped me with interview preparation. Ultimately, her professionalism and effort played a major role in gaining my new position. I highly recommend - businesses and candidates alike - to work/collaborate with Foundation.

Shaunagh kept me informed throughout the process, made sure I was prepared for interviews and checked on how things went post interview. What was most impressive and reassuring was that once I started my new role, she continued to keep in contact to make sure I had settled and was happy. Her professionalism and manner are absolutely exemplary. Foundation Recruitment has placed me in my last two roles. The first experience I had was for a role that required some high-level clearances, which took about six months to get. Throughout this the communication and information were fantastic! Foundation Recruitment has always been very proactive and has a wide range of roles and clients. I would not hesitate to recommend them and they would be my first choice if ever I was looking to move role or recruit.

I would highly recommend Foundation Recruitment - they are highly skilled and professional with the ability to work tirelessly to pursue the target to satisfy both clients and candidates within the real estate market.
