Refreshing to deal with - honest and provide genuine advice and options that was suited directly to me. They took the time to find the right position and didn't rush the process at all just to place me in the first option. That said, it was under one week that Building Personnel was able to connect me with a great fitting company and role and less than 24 hours after the interview an offer was negotiated and accepted. A very trustworthy company and couldn't be happier with the service.

Building Personnel are a really professional team and friendly to deal with. They did their best finding a construction supervisor job for me, always answered my phone calls (or returned my phone call the same day). They also keep you informed throughout with progress and new jobs. Strongly suggest Building Personnel for anyone looking for a future recruitment agent.

I really appreciate what Martin Preece at Building Personnel did for me during my job search. From our first meeting he gave me positive feedback on how I presented myself and advised me on career choices, which was really informative. Job hunting for junior to mid-level was really a swift process and sometimes it could take time but, Martin stayed confident in me and through multiple interviews I finally landed on a job that I really look forward to. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Martin Preece to any job seekers who think they can do better and needs a professional agent to represent them.
