Testimonials

It's always great to get feedback from clients, even better when the sing your praises. This is what our clients have to say about our service:

“Following several unsuccessful attempts to recruit a cosmetics buyer for our retail group, I contacted Emma Gunes at Epitome to try a different route to market.  I had previously tried press and specialist magazine advertising, along with traditional recruitment agencies in Jersey, Northern Ireland and mainland UK.  The concern with filling a vacancy through a traditional agency is the high fees which are payable, and are non-refundable after the individual has been in post longer than 3 months.

Epitome’s flat fee, “no appointment no fee” system not only gave me the confidence of knowing how much I would need to budget, the personal service I received was also of an extremely high standard.  I chose the middle range package which meant that applicants were shortlisted and initially screened by Epitome before being recommended to us for interview.

The standard of candidates was high and I was delighted to appoint a candidate in early March.  She is settling in well and already beginning to add value to our business.

I will definitely be using this innovative, cost effective route to recruitment again and would recommend it to others without hesitation.”

“Following years of using traditional recruitment agencies, we started using the services of Epitome in 2010.  Initially, our objective was to save costs.  We have certainly done that.  Using Epitome’s premium service at £995 per campaign our typical cost per placement has reduced by over 50%.  So what about service?  There has been no diminution there.  We have not seen any drop off in the number and quality of well screened candidates and the account management offered by Epitome has been to a very high standard.”
