1. Looking for a new job can be a very daunting and at times a frustrating experience. The last
thing you need is to be fighting between recruitment companies and being bombarded with calls
from another "expert" who is going to solve all of your career problems.
What most people will learn is that 9 recruiters out of 10 do not care about you or the company
they are representing. Commission, commission, commission is all they see and strive for.
If the above sounds familiar to you then stop wasting your time and contact River Professional
Services.
My initial consultation was over an hour on the phone, where I felt that they were genuinely
interested in me and what I wanted from my career. Straight away there was a difference from
other recruiters who just ask questions as a box filling procedure.
It was important to me that I was offered opportunities that were relevant to me and my career
development plans, not just because it was “on their books”.
In my time working with River, I was only offered positions that fit my requirements and where I
fit the requirements of the employing company.
Despite some disappointments along the way, River have given me great support and
encouragement to continue my job search, but also not to rush into anything until the right
position came available.
After just six months and lots of hard work from both River and I, I finally landed my dream job.
With their thorough understanding of my needs and the needs of my new potential employer,
River were able to make the match between us.
I could not be happier in my new role and from here on I feel like my opportunities are endless.
All I would like to say to people is, don’t settle for second best. It is truly worth waiting, because
that “dream job” is out there for everybody. All you need is a little courage to make the leap and
the help and support of a top quality organization like River Professional Services.
I can’t thank them enough for what they have done for me, and when I come to employ my own
team in years to come, I know who I will be using to help.
