FEEDBACK

“I can honestly say it is the best recruiting tool I have used up to now and on a relative basis the best value for money.”

“It is a medium to explore new opportunities which are not generally accessible otherwise. It also provides the opportunity to access the hiring managers directly rather than going through headhunters which can be a long, drawn out route.”

“A key attraction of the board for me is that employers are actively seeking out CFA UK members, which may boost my chances against non-CFA UK members.”

“We have had a wide range of applicants from the job posting, and we are taking several of those to first interview stage. The range has reflected at the top end some candidates who would appear to be very suitable for the role.”

“It is a very direct and easy medium for finding and applying for roles.”

“I appreciate your communication. I’ve found most job boards do not provide this level of interaction and information, so it’s very refreshing.”
