What our clients say about us!

From an Employer's perspective:

I am the owner of a Hairdressing Salon which has been in the family for some 35 years.  It is a small suburban salon with myself and 1 senior hairdresser working in the business, after 8.5 years my senior stylist decieded to leave.  Not having to have dealt with having to employ staff for some time it became obvious that I was out of my depth, (great hairdresser hopeless in recruiting). 

Having had Tanya as a client, I called her in a panic, she meant with me immediately she could hear the panic in my voice, and took over asking several questions where upon I answered no to most of them, do I have an employment contract, do I have a description of the vacant job, do I have the advertising in place and if so where and so on and so on. 

As I am a small business and do not have the excess funds to spend of recruitment, Tanya was upfront and discussed my cost options.  I decided to use Recruit NZ's unbundled service as opposed to end to end recruitment to save on the costs.  Tanya created an advertisement, she listed it for me in all the right places, monitored it on a weekly basis, and assisted in creating the necessary Employment Agreements, Letter of Offer and all other relevant documentation required to employ staff in today's environment.

Tanya was unbelievable, she keep me updated, constantly checking everything was going ok, and even when I got a bit down because the right person seemed hard to find, she explained the process to me again, assuring me that it was normal.  Tanya has an amazing wealth of knowledge in her industry and was a huge benefit to me in this stressful time.  Knowing that you had someone like Tanya there supporting you and sending through all the right information is hugely important.

 
I wouldn't hesitate to use her again, in fact I would recommend that all small businesses make it part of their business plan to book a meeting with Tanya once or twice a year to go over any changes that we would need to know about, ensuring that we have all the right documentation and rules updated for employing staff.

 
Thanks so much Tanya for all your support.

Tanya did a fantastic job in recruiting staff for our organisation. She was very easy to work with and had an excellent handle on our business requirements, providing a good shortlist of highly suitable candidates.

She kept us well-informed throughout the recruitment process and followed up to ensure we were happy with the results.

Her personable approach made the process a pleasure and she saved us a huge amount of time and resources.

I highly recommend her and Recruit NZ to anyone wishing to recruit quality staff.

Tanya, looking back over the past 3 years you have certainly made recruiting staff for our company a breeze.

The right people at the right time makes our lives much easier and assists the smooth running of our business from week to week. We really appreciate the time you have taken to get to know our business personally.

This has great benefits for us as it makes our recruitment process much more efficient, with less time involved for us, as you understand who would suit our business whether in our Sales, Management or Administration departments.

It takes the pain out of recruiting as we only end up by interviewingcandidates that are right for our company the vacant role.
We look forward to continuing our successful business relationship into the future.

PlaceMakers New Lynn- 01/04/09 

When dealing with recruitment agents, one of the things we have to contend with is if the agent will really look after the needs of our business - not just send us any candidates, hoping that we will find a fit.

Recruit NZ really took the time to get to know our business, how we operate, and therefore has a really clear understanding of the people we need. The candidates Tanya recommends to us are top calibre, saving us valuable time and money.

Tanya is very good at communicating both with us, and the candidate to ensure both parties are kept in the loop throughout the whole process. The personal touch is what sets this business apart from the rest.

I would recommend Recruit NZ to take care of your recruiting needs.

From a Job Seeker's perspective:

As a candidate going through the recruitment process, I found Tanya excellent to deal with. Her friendly manner and easy communication style made the initial interviews not just stress-free but actually enjoyable. Furthermore, Tanya's strong understanding of her client's business gave me a very clear sense of their organisational values and culture. This meant I was able to accurately deduce, right from the outset, if they would be good fit for me or not. Tanya was extremly prompt in all her communications and was genuinely excited for me, as I progressed through the stages in the recruitment process."

Lisa Anderson-HR Advisor 20/11/2011

I had been unemployed for five weeks, applying for job upon job through agencies and private advertisers.  It took weeks for anyone to get back to me, it was so frustrating. Then I saw a job advertised with Recruit-NZ as an Administration Manager, I knew I could do it so I applied.  Within a day I had a call from Tanya wanting to see me, she made an apointment for the following day.  It was a casual interview at a cafe, she made me feel at ease and was so thorough.  By the end of that interview she told me she was putting me forward for the job, she read my personality so well and knew I would fit the position.  Tanya arranged a interview for the next day with the company and by the end of that I had the job.  Tanya was so efficient and what she said she would do she did.  I have been working for Metropolitan Rentals for 3 weeks now and it is fantastic.  My personality and that of the owners are so compatible, I know I will be here for a very long time.  I would highly recommend Tanya of Recruit-NZ , she is proffessional, efficient and awesome.

Keri- 19/05/2011

Having just completed my first day on the job, I would like to commend Tanya on the excellent job she did with matching my skills with the needs of her client.

Right from the start Tanya was fantastic - she replied to my application just days after it was sent and I felt at ease as soon as we met.  Although it was a long recruitment process, Tanya kept me well informed during each stage and contacted me even when there was no news.

RecruitNZ made me feel important and not just number like other agencies.  The service they provide is outstanding and I recommend RecruitNZ to anyone looking for their perfect role.

Natasha- 16/05/2011

I decided to call in the services of Tanya, as I needed a professional CV.  Well from the moment I chatted to Tanya, I found her very professional and she made me feel at ease.  She kept me informed at all times and gave me sound advice.  I am extremely happy with my CV, and cannot recommend her services enough. I have told all my friends about her professionalism, honesty and compassion and delivery of a great CV which makes me far more marketable.

Hi Tanya,
Yes I recieved my email copies of the CV and wow is all I have to say your wording of the CV is outstanding.  Two hours after recieving my email CV unknown to me my wife attached a copy of it and sent it to a company in Auckland city in which I was called and asked to meet the following day.  I have never recieved a call back this fast,  again Tanya thank you to you and your team for getting the doors opened for me and my family.  This has been the best money I have ever spent.

Thanks so much!!

Tanya was brilliant – highly communicative and approachable. She kept me well-informed throughout the recruitment process and explained the position thoroughly to me, also providing an excellent follow-up service.

Hi Tanya,
 
I am so happy and made the right decision to request your service to review and restructure my resume to make it presentable.
I really appreciate that very much and also very glad to register myself with your agency to seek help in looking for a job.
You are so approachable and  friendly and awesome. I really thank you for making an effort to speak to me apart from viewing my former resume and asking me to brief you of my skill set and commercial experiences. I feel so at easy briefing you of my work attitudes and characters and my experiences because you are so opened minded to hear me. I will encouraged and recommend you to my former IT office mates who were made redundant and who are still jobless to register themselves with your agency and to approach you for help.
Have a Good Day,
 
Cheers,

Lennie Kuah-15/01/10

Before finding RecruitNZ I had many bad experiences with many other recruitment companies, including several well known large agencies.

Tanya was great, she communicated with me at each stage of the recruitment process and even called me to find out how the final interview went!

At the end of it all she got me a job I was a perfect fit for and I’m still there enjoying every minute of it. RecruitNZ is a truly professional recruitment agency and I can whole heartedly recommend them to anyone!

Ben Williams-9/12/08

Thanks for the way that you laid out my CV and covering letter. The professionalism that you showed was great and the advise going with that is very good. I recommend you to do everybody CV and Covering letters. Thank you once again.

Eddie Bruwer- 15/01/09

I had very set ideas regarding CV lay-out and content, but bowed to Tanya's suggestions and experience and let her revamp my CV. The result was a modern, fresh and concise NZ style document which was a vast improvement on it's predecessor. Categories are clear, with key points itemised making the CV very easy to follow.

Steven Lambert-30/03/09

It's the little things like this that makes you and your business stand out!

Mark Eisig- 27/03/09

Tanya helped me with job seeking as well as interview and negotiation processes. Her services were thorough and very professional. She was very obliging and was a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend her to anyone seeking employment.
