Reviews of Reed Recruitment Agency

S. F.

Jon Simpson assisted me with securing my new position with one of his clients in the construction industry. My experience of dealing with him was excellent. Jon was very helpful, knowledgeable and informative. He regularly kept me up to date with what was happening at every stage of the process, which is a rare thing within the broader recruitment industry. Additionally, he was not pushy and gave me time to consider my options. I would not hesitate to work with Jon again in the future and would definitely recommend him to those looking for a new role and similarly those looking to recruit a new member of staff.

Great service was provided by Jon Simpson and the team at Reed Recruitment. Jon was very helpful, and his knowledge of the local job market ensured that I not only had an interview within a week but, was offered a job at an institution that I had wanted to work at for as long as I can remember. I would thoroughly recommend Jon to anyone in the Aberdeen area that is serious about finding a job as he will endeavour to ensure that your needs are met and that you are happy with the opportunity given.

Working with Jon Simpson at Reed Recruitment Agency has been an absolute pleasure. As I received a phone call from Jon to discuss my job situation, I can say that he truly listened to what I was looking for because he found the perfect job for me that ticked all the boxes. Jon was kind enough to prep me for this new assignment and build my confidence. He regularly called me to check in and ask if I needed any further assistance. Thank you Jon for your support throughout the process. Very professional but also friendly and approachable. For anyone seeking employment I strongly advise using Reed Recruitment Agency.

Jon Simpson was my recruitment agent, he was fantastic with right from the first email, helped me understand the role and put me in front of the right people to further my career. Excellent help and go between myself and employer. Goes above and beyond for you as well! I thoroughly recommend Reed Recruitment.

I am so delighted with how much Howi has helped me finding a suitable job over the years. We had an initial interview at Reed’s office in Aberdeen in February 2020, in order for him to understand what kind of job I want, and to get to know more about me and my aspirations. Soon after this, the pandemic came and the job situation (as everyone knows) was pretty dire. Howi was always honest, telling me about the down times but reassuring me that he will still do his best to find the perfect job for me. And he did - in February this year I started my role at Survivex, a role in which I am thriving, and for which I am forever thankful to Howi. During the interview process, he couldn’t be more reassuring and helpful enough - we scheduled calls for me to practice my interview preparation and to make sure any questions I had were answered. I would definitely recommend Howi to anyone who is looking for the right opportunity - not only he is extremely professional, but he is honest, resilient, he is a great listener, helpful, and dedicated to his job!

Big shout out to the Reed Recruitment team. Especially Howi Driver who assisted me in finding my current job. The service from Howi was first class from start to finish. 6 months into my new job and i can say I am loving it. Big difference in what I used to do but sometimes you have to come out your comfort zone to excel. #new job # loving life # onward and upwards.

Howi at Reed was very helpful in finding me my current job. He kept me updated throughout the whole recruitment process and took the time to understand my needs. He even helped with my interview preparation. I would recommend Howi to anyone looking for employment in the future. Thank you.

P. R.

Great agency. Jon has been very professional from the first call, providing helpful tips and always keeping me updated with the process. Highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a next career move.

S. L.

I phoned Reed Recruitment and Howi's name was advised to contact with the line of work that I was interested in. I can't thank Howi enough for the helpful conversation's we had and for submitting my CV forward for my current temporary role that I truly feel is the right job for me. Howi put's the candidate's request's/needs first and not the agencies. I would highly recommend Reed Recruitment - Thank you Howi! :)

A. S.

Jon Simpson got in touch with me on my last week of my previous position. We spoke about what I was looking for, and in the space of a week managed to get a position lined up for me to start the following week. Extremely grateful for his continued guidance and support.

T. D.

Reed gave me the opportunity to get straight back into work when I left my old job. They kept in touch on a weekly basis making sure everything was going well. If I am ever in the same situation I would definitely use them again

S. B.

From the initial call, through to supporting me in the preparation for interview, Jon has been incredibly professional and supportive. The job, along with the nature of the company, were clearly outlined, as well as the expectations of the company.

Jon Simpson @ Reed placed me a in splendid position at the University of Aberdeen. All went smoothly and am happily working in a position which suits my background.

M. B.

Ever since I started my journey seeking another position, I've had agencies that never got back to me, gave me the wrong information and I have to say that when Reed found me the job that suited my needs and what I was looking for, Jon from Reed Aberdeen has been with me every step of the way to secure what I've been looking for. I can't thank him enough for the diligence and following through before and after the interview I had with the company. Reed should be honoured to have such an outstanding employee and this is what customer service is all about! Thanks again Jon

M. M.

I was contacted by Jon Simpson from Reed Aberdeen with regard to a role in offshore wind, he was really helpful and supportive throughout the process and was instrumental in my success providing advice and guidance throughout. I would recommend Jon to anyone looking for a technical or engineering role as he knows the sector and was able to place me in a job for which I am ideally suited. I normally avoid recruitment agencies as a rule , but would not hesitate to work with Jon in the future and have already utilised his services for a role for which we are presently recruiting.

D. W.

Howi Driver secured a temp position for me initially. He has since secured me permanent employment. I would recommend Howi to anyone. He is very friendly and so easy to speak with and knows exactly how to get the job done. Thanks to Reeds and especially Howi for helping me get back to permanent employment.

U. H.

Very proactive experience, Howi found me the position and followed up with great support. A job well done for both of us !!

A. B.

Having used Reed Recruitment on many occasions for different and varied types of work, I’ve always been met with an extremely professional and hard working service. Jon Simpson, who is the advisor that has regularly assisted me, is a credit to the company. He has always been incredibly helpful, proactive and provides good duty of care. Reed offer competitive rates of pay and holiday allocation which fits my needs.

I. F.

Jon at Reed helped me get in to the job I'm in now. Applied too late for a different job, but Jon phoned me the next day with another job which I ended up getting. He was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Would definitely recommend Reed (and Jon) for anyone looking for work!

C. M.

Would highly recommend Reed Recruitment if you are looking for work. I found myself unemployed earlier this year and registered with Reed Recruitment. I was contacted within a short time by Jon Simpson from the Aberdeen branch with an offer of a temp to perm position and got started within days. The role has now become permanent. Any queries or concerns were resolved easily with an email or phone call to Jon. He was an absolute pleasure to deal with. If I find myself looking for work in the future I will be giving Jon and Reed a call

I. W.

I was contacted by Jon Simpson in regards to an opportunity and from the initial call he was absolutely on top of each aspect of the opportunity. Any questions I asked he had most of the answers already and those which were in a grey area he had an answer to me usually the same day. His searching out my knowledge was very good and I understood that he was not just providing a body for the position he was being very specific in requirements from the potential employer. I highly recommend Jon as his professional attitude and competence is evident from the first contact. If I were in the market again my first call would be to Jon at REED. And yes I accepted the position after multiple interviews.

I couldn't recommend Reed enough to anyone who is looking for a job they are outstanding at what they do I feel so lucky and would like to give other people an honest review of my experience. It all started when I was contacted by Howi at Reed who had seen my cv and thought I would be a good candidate for a job he was so lovely and professional. We chatted and I told him what I was looking for and after reading the job description it sounded like an amazing opportunity for myself after being at home with my daughter for the last 17months and struggling to find a job that fitted me and my family. Howi then went and booked me an interview for the following week and it was the best interview I have ever been to I felt like I fitted right in and the job had some amazing benefits which i have never had from any previous employers so I was excited and keeping everything crossed that I would get it. I was told i would hear back in a few days time but to my surprise the very next day Howi's name popped up on my phone and it was to tell me I has gotten the job!!! I couldn't believe it and I have him to thank for it he sent me over so much great interview tips and talked me through everything before I went to my interview which put my mind at rest and made me feel prepared for it. If it wasn't for him I definitely wouldn't have been prepared and the outcome could have been very different but now I have a great job with amazing benefits and a great salary so thank you so much Reed recruitment and a very special thank you to Howi for all his help and guidance.

M. B.

I've had a great experience with Reed and especially with Howi who helped me find and secure a fantastic job opportunity almost a year ago! I'm forever grateful for his assistance and the fact that he's been supporting me every step of the way and gave me confidence. Now I'm happy with my job and I have Howi and Reed to thank for that. Highly recommend!

A. F.

From first contact, the representative- Howi Driver - was polite, professional and passionate. Instead of seemingly running through questions (like some agencies), he seemed genuinely interested in me, my qualifications and history. This helped him to identify roles that fit my skill set and experience. Howi found me a part time role whilst waiting to hear from a more permanent placement. This was invaluable as it helped keep money coming in during the tough economic situation we are in. I am extremely thankful to him for his help and guidance through the process. Highly recommend.

A. B.

I approached Reed in search of a summer job. Within 24 hours Jon Simpson secured me a suitable role. Following the commencement of my assignment, Jon was supportive and prompt in responding to any queries that I had. I would most definitely approach Reed again and I would highly recommend Jon.

E. H.

Couldn’t have wished to find a job quicker with the help of Howie at Reed, Aberdeen and the rest of the team. Such an enthusiastic and driven recruiter who really does his best for his candidates and with such efficiency. If you need help securing a position make sure you get yourself signed up!!

O. j.

Five star service across the board from Reed. From the moment I signed on with Reed my recruiter Howi Driver was nothing short of excellent. He not only kept me updated regularly with progress of any leads but fought very hard to get me interviews and gave it his all until I I found a new role. Highly recommended.

C. E.

Highly recommend Howi at Reed Recruitment. My overall experience was smooth from start to finish. Highly professional and had my best interests at heart. He was very efficient keeping me updated and an absolute pleasure to work with.

H. M.

I was contacted by Howi Driver one day after I had applied for a position online and by the next day he had secured an interview for me for the same week. Howi was excellent at staying in touch with me throughout the process, from meeting me before the initial interview, to giving feedback from the company after both the first and the final interviews, and keeping me up to date on when to expect to hear a decision. The whole process was extremely swift and stressfree and Howi’s support throughout helped me get my dream job. I would definitely recommend Howi and Reed!

R. S.

Howi did a great job and within a few days had organised an interview for me which led very quickly to my new job. Good communication and support shown. Highly appreciated and recommended.

E. L.

I received extremely good service at REED Aberdeen. My consultant Howi was very attentitive and made sure I had everything i needed, sending me a step to step guide to the perfect interview. I was offered a job after my first interview and I could not recommend Howi and his collegues enough for their hard work and attention to detail.

C. Y.

An extremely pro active and professional team - thank you to Jon Simpson for his career guidance and placing me in an amazing position. The back of house payroll and portal system is also so easy to work with and payments are always on time.

A. V. Z.

Great company, Jon has a good eye to place candidates with the right company. Recommend you contact them for a chat to see how they can help you. Jon has helped me secure my current role and can confidently say it's been my best move of my career.

R. H.

I registered with Reed over a year ago, one of five agencies in Aberdeen. I met with Briony who I knew had read my CV and spent time getting to know me asking me the right related questions . Her professional and pleasant manner, her weekly personal emails and a job opportunity, at the right salary means I'd recommend REED- Thanks Briony

J. S.

Howi helped me find a job I would have never even thought of applying for as he highlighted my skills and assets and with his tips and advice I have successfully been offered the job. Huge thank you to Howi and I cannot recommend Reed Aberdeen enough!!

D. A.

I approached REED looking for assistance in securing my next role. I was delighted with how engaged they were with my background and current situation. Their service and efficiency in sourcing a suitable position for me was genuinely excellent. I would, without question, use their services again in the future.

I. a. L. W.

I would highly recommend Reed Aberdeen as a job seeker and in particular Jon Simpson. He genuinely took an interest in what type of employment I was seeking and he was very proactive in trying to place me into suitable employment.

J. G.

Excellent recruitment agency could not recommend them highly enough, especially Howi who guided me throughout the process. He prepared me for the interview process and provided moral support along the way. Great company, with great professionals and great people.

I received extremely good service at Reed Aberdeen. My consultant Briony was very friendly and attentive and provided great constant work roles for me to fill. Would highly recommend!

G. C.

Very good agency. They don't just a sign you to any job. But they look for assignments that suit your skill set. Anything I needed or any questions I had jon simpson and his team all way's went that extra mile to help. Very easy app to use for timesheets , and always pay your wages on time.

B. G.

I first saw the job I am doing just now being advertised on the Reed Recruitment's website, I applied for the position the day before Christmas Eve and Howie Driver called me once the office opened just after the New Year, asked me for my details and had a little chat, a day later I was asked if I could do a Zoom Conference Call with the company I am on contract with now, it could not have been any simpler to get a job, especially in the current climate with Covid-19...

N. R.

Entire team are very friendly and efficient, special thank you to Howi Driver who was great with communication and went the extra mile to secure an interview for a position I thankfully was offered and start next week. An overall great experience. Thank you

T. M.

Dealt with Howie Driver who was exceptionally helpful, friendly and professional. Would highly recommend Reed Aberdeen. High standards and a need to please.

S. A.

Exceptional service from Howi Driver in Aberdeen. Having dealt with several agencies in the city I would highly recommend registering with Reed as a first choice.

D. M.

Excellent service from people who care and work with you to get the most out of employment. Jon could not have been more helpful and really went the extra mile at every step.

R. P.

A fantastic service. I signed up with little expectations and have been blown away by how quickly i was offered a placement and the speed at which that placement became permanent employment.

S. D.

I've had a lot of support, encouragement and a lot of help, more than I could ever ask for. Always very polite and eager to help with anything, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for help in the quest to finding work.
