To whom it may concern,

I would like to provide some feedback regarding two or your recruitment advisors and the recent dealings I have had with them.

Back in October I got a call from Tom about a role that he thought I should be put forward for. I was very interested in the position and asked that he put me forward for interview.   During this time I was informed that  my current role would be made redundant in early 2012. I spoke to Tom about getting some time in with him to plan for when the redundancies were to happen. Before we had the chance to meet however, I got another call, this time from Chris in Tom's absence asking if I would go back for a further interview, which I of course accepted.

Due to my personal circumstances and length of service I am not in a position to leave without my redundancy package, a point I raised with both Tom and Chris and discussed at length, getting some great advice from both. This left the company wanting to offer me a position but they were understandably unwilling to wait until I was released from my current contract. Thankfully with some serious hard work and persuasion from both Chris and Tom I have now been made a very attractive offer with the company and they are willing to wait until my proposed redundancy date. They have also managed to secure me an increase on my current salary, which in this economic climate was a fantastic and unexpected surprise. The team work and dedication of these two can not be faulted, and, as I am sure you can appreciate, has totally turned 2012 around for me, as I was facing an uncertain future in theIOMjob market.

I had a fantastic level of contact from both Tom and Chris, they called when they said they would and also returned my calls on time and with the information needed. They are both an absolute asset to your company and I cannot thank them enough.

Hi Vicki,

I just wanted to say thank you again for today you were a massive help and really did reassure me. Hate to say it but I think everyone was right definitely better off with you guys then anywhere else. I just wanted to stress the point as a few of my friends had said if you have more than one agency one tends to back off, so I just wanted you to know that I felt a lot more confident with you and I really do appreciate any further help that you can give me.

Kind regards

Hi Tom

I would just like to thank Hamblin and yourself in particular for helping me secure a postion.

After registering with Hamblin and three other employment agencies in September Hamblin were the only agency who kept me up to date with vacancies, who checked on my current situation and after negotiations with Trident helped me secure what I consider to be the perfect job.

I can't thank you enough for all your help and if in the future I require to register with an employment agency for future work I will not hesitate to once again register with Hamblin.

Kind regards

Hello Tom

I would like to thank you for all your hard work and effort.  I can honestly say that Hamblin is by far the best agency to deal with.

I know that you have been trying very hard to secure me a permanent position and hopefully we will be successful very soon !!

You have constantly kept me updated with new job opportunities that have become available.   Also, most importantly, you have provided me with the relevant feed back from the interviewers which has been constructive.

Thank you.

I have found Hamblin to be highly effective in identifying and delivering high caliber candidates to me at a competitive price. They apply the highest standards in terms of client confidentiality, risk and compliance and go above and beyond to really understand their clients’ needs.

I have no hesitation in endorsing the business, its service and most importantly its people – who are at the heart of its success as theIslandpre-eminent recruitment business October 2011.  We have used the recruitment services (permanent and temporary) for more years than I can remember (I would suggest 15 years or more), whilst throughout that time the company did not choose to opt for a preferred supplier basis, Hamblin did become our first point of call, and supplied the majority of our resourcing needs.

The relationship management from your staff has been good, demonstrating efficiency in their actions to fulfil our resource needs.  We have maintained good relationships over the years, and despite changes in personnel, the standards and approach have enabled our business xto react to resourcing issues with confidence through Hamblin.

Whilst the staff supplied by your company has, by far, been meeting our needs, on those rare occasions when an issue has arisen, this has been dealt with swiftly and professionally, enabling all parties to be satisfied with the resolution. The confidence we have had in the appointment and management of supplied resources has been a key factor in our association.

In the various areas of our business, CSP, Accounting & Tax, Trust, Fund Services and E-gaming I have found Hamblin to be very helpful.  You have been efficient, professional and dedicated over the years on all of the various projects we have worked on together and I was delighted with the final results.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Hamblin to any other organisation, in fact I often do.

I look forward to working together with Hamblin in the future and continuing the excellent relationship between our two firms.

"I’ve received great support from all areas of Hamblin over the past 2 years, but I wanted to thank you specifically for all your tremendous help and for originally introducing me to the company. If I come across anyone looking for work on the island I will be sure to point them in your direction".

"Can I just say a big Thank You to all the staff at Hamblin for finding me the perfect job. Not just a job, not just a good job but the perfect job! On my initial interview when I first registered with Hamblin I really felt that the staff listened to what type of job I was looking for and really understand both my skills and personality and made the process really easy. On subsequent visits I always felt welcomed and the staff did a fab job of keeping me updated on posts and progress of my applications. My preparation for interviews was thorough and I felt that all the staff at Hamblin were really genuinely interested in how I had got on and what I thought of prospective employers. When people ask me how I got my job I am proud to say it was through Hamblin. I wish you all the best in your own future careers and would recommend you in a second".

"As I have now been granted my work permit, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the staff at Hamblin, especially for the fantastic service and opportunity that you provided. Having used various agencies over the years, it goes without saying that Hamblin have been fantastic."
