Testimonials

I just wanted to drop you a short message about one of your Wilmslow based Pharma Recruitment Consultants, Hannah Skillen. Hannah recently placed me, and she was fantastic from start to finish. I used to just think another agency were great (as they placed me in a previous role), but Hannah has by far exceeded all my expectations as a candidate. She was on hand whenever I needed her, and she was incredibly knowledgable around the company.    I think Hannah absolutely fits your “distinctively different” tag line (in a good way) and if I ever need a new role (which hopefully won’t be for a long time), I would be calling Hannah! I hope all of your other Consultants are as personable and on the ball as Hannah.  

Will - you’ve always been easy to reach and responsive, and also followed up where needed, always in a kind and positive matter! 

You (Will Wilson) are literally the best recruitment consultant that I have ever dealt with. You have always been good humoured, helpful,professional and thorough. I really rate you and this is literally the first letter I have ever written of this nature. Please forward this to your director as you are truly an asset to your organisation and an absolute pleasure to deal with! You will go very far as you are a natural!

Excellent service provided from Hayley. She has a great understanding of our company and our requirements and matches candidates appropriately to this and ensures they are very well briefed prior to interview. Hayley has a very open, honest approach, is very customer focused, has a great sense of urgency to turn things around quickly and is always willing to go the extra mile (providing data reports when requested, competitor salary info etc). She is a pleasure to work with and works in a true partnership style with her clients.     

The staff at Carrot Pharma are very professional, understand our company and provide us with qualified applicants that fit our needs.  

Dear Joe, I felt compelled to write a few (well quite a few!) words to thank you for your hard work, diligence, tenacity and refreshingly professional approach to finding my new role. From your initial approach through LinkedIn, the phone call the day after as arranged and moving on through the process of interviewing me, getting to know what I would like in a new role and matching this perfectly with the requirements of your client, your communication has been above and beyond what I have experienced with any other recruitment agency. When you said you would call, you did, when there was an update on the progress of my application, you called and let me know what was happening, when the process stalled (this was out of your hands - a small delay from the client side), you explained why this was happening and honestly reassured me that you were in contact with your client and it would work out. It did! If I was to sum up your approach in a few key words, it would be: Integrity, Honesty, Tenacity, Friendliness, Professionalism, Knowledge, Pragmatism, Bravery One or two of the above key words may make you scratch your head, however, these are all relevant from the partnership you formed with me to seek out, find and secure a superb new role. I have not put in the words ‘super salesman’, which you are, as these words can put candidates off, however, your approach is not (thankfully) that of a ‘typical’ senior level recruiter, it is far more personal and intelligently delivered. It works for both your client and me clearly. You ask the right questions, at the right time and have never come across as ‘pushy’, more wishing to help and providing guidance as required. This is incredibly ‘refreshing’ and appreciated. I certainly feel that your style is one that should be emulated across your organisation, and if the general recruitment industry opened their ears to how you have conducted yourself, they could 1. Learn a lot about best practice 2. Vastly improve on their treatment of candidates (yes, we are human beings and not just a bonus and ring of the ‘deals bell’! 3. Lose some of the bad reputation that many I have dealt with have deserved. I have previously used a scale of customer satisfaction, which I know you will be familiar with, called NPS. You get a ‘10’. I will definitely recommend you to friend’s, family and colleagues. Thank you so much for working in partnership with me to get the best possible role and keep up the great work. I wish you and Carrot Pharma great and continued, well deserved success.

Carrot is by far one of the best pharma recruitment agencies in the industry! 

I can't thank you enough for all your help in this (job application) process! I know it's your job, but your are much more personable than any other recruiter I have ever spoken to. 

Katie, Since we last spoke I have actually been offered a job. It's a lab-based role, as I had also been looking at them too. I have given it a lot of thought and although it wasn't necessarily the main focus of my job hunt, it seems like a great opportunity and offers the option to build up some experience in client-facing services alongside the science. I'm hoping this will stand me in good stead for future MedComms roles as I am still determined to steer my career that way. I want to take the time again to thank you so much for your time over the last few months. You really have been a wonderful recruiter (the best I've dealt with!!) and put me at ease straight away. Please make sure you pass the feedback on to your manager as you really deserve the recognition. I would love for you to still keep my details on file, and in a year or so I may be back in touch...if you've not moved on yourself. Thanks again and best wishes, B

Thank you for your part in all this. Without your introduction and your professional input and guidance the end result could have been very different. And as always, it has been a real pleasure dealing with you and Carrot, I only have good things to say about you.
