D. R.

I had a great experience working with city grad throughout my application for a grad scheme. I felt they really understood the company they were recruiting for and really believed I would be a good fit. Christabel answered all of my initial questions very quickly & was always just a phone call away. The assessment day itself was the best I’ve been to! Both Christabel and Richard made me feel really comfortable so I was completely relaxed throughout the day and going into to the interview. Would definitely recommend to any grads looking for the perfect role!

G. A.

My experience with CityGrad was amazing. Christabel was so lovely and helpful throughout my application process. I felt at ease during the process as Christabel would check up on me and helped me prep throughout, and I received a job offer from the graduate scheme! I recommend CityGrad to any students and graduates looking to start their careers.

Citygrad saw value in me and helped me to achieve the career I had been aiming for for many years. Christabel and Richard were responsive, efficient and informative throughout the recruitment process and seemed to have a wealth of opportunities open to graduates keen to enter the city. I would recommend anyone who is looking for a graduate opportunity to get in touch with them, you won’t look back!

Highly recommend CityGrad to any new graduates. Christabel helped turn the normally stressful application process into something that was clear and manageable. Thanks to the team at CityGrad there wasn't a point during the process where I was confused or unsure and everything was handled in a timely manner.

g. h.

Christabel was extremely professional and helpful at all stages throughout the process. She gave great insights and information every step of the way. All my questions were answered, and she made me feel so at ease, in what naturally can be a stressful and nerve- wracking time. Every interaction made me feel more confident. I couldn’t recommend CityGrad enough for any graduates or those in their early career who are looking for a helping hand.

L. R.

Rich and Christabel were extremely helpful in my search for a graduate job! I had a couple of calls with them before the assessment centre so I knew exactly what to expect on the day. They were very reassuring and friendly throughout the whole process; I can't recommend them enough! All in all, the process took less than a month and I can't wait to start my grad scheme in August. Thanks so much to both of you! :)

A. D.

City Grad were so helpful in helping me secure a graduate job. The process took about two months from when Christabel first approached me to when I was given the offer which is really quick compared to other graduate processes. I couldn't be more happy with my job offer too, I really believe that they found the right company for me. Christabel was so friendly, helpful and supportive in guiding me through the process and explaining the stages of the application. She was easy to get in contact with and answered all and any questions that I had. I would highly recommend using City Grad!

L. N.

I had a really great experience with CityGrad, Christabel was incredibly friendly and supportive throughout the process, putting me forward for 2 exciting roles. I was kept updated throughout every stage, and the prep calls from both Christabel and Richard before the interviews were really helpful. With their help I was offered 2 great positions, have chosen 1 and am really looking forward to starting my new role. I would definitely recommend CityGrad for any graduates looking to start a role in finance.

A. G.

I had a great experience with CityGrad for my recent graduate scheme application. Christabel in particular was very friendly, helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, offering constant support and guidance as well as prep calls before the interview and assessment centre stages. I am very grateful for their help and would thoroughly recommend them to any graduates seeking employment opportunities.

K. R.

Christabel was extremely professional and helpful through the whole process. She guided me through every step and prepared me for the whole process, step by step. A process which is naturally a stressful experience, turned out being a peaceful and stress-free experience, as she prepared me for every little detail.

C. A.

The two directors from CityGrad were instrumental in placing me at my first role in tech. Their organisational skills in creating an intense yet enjoyable assessment process was refreshing and unique compared to previous grad days that I had been on. Before the assessment, they were extremely responsive and thorough if I had any questions about the role or company, and even set up a prep call with me before the day itself! On the day, they remained upbeat and encouraging throughout, always smiling and helping out where they could, which really put me at ease. I'd like to thank everyone at CityGrad for their professionalism and passion when it came to placing me at my first job. I would strongly recommend CityGrad for any and all advice for those looking for graduate positions. If you reach out to someone at the company, from experience I can tell you they will be more than happy to help.

R. D.

Rich and Christabel were incredible at helping me find a grad scheme that is in my preferred industry and location. Rich was extremely helpful from the start and even had a call with me before the assessment centre with hints and tips that definitely helped me going in. The virtual assessment centre was equally professional and fun. I didn't feel uncomfortable or too nervous, and still got a good feel of the company that I am going to start working for! I would recommend Rich and Christabel to any grad out there!

D. A.

Rich and Christabel were very helpful in my search for a graduate position. I was approached by them with a fantastic potential opportunity which I wouldn't have found out about if it wasn't for them. In the end I received an offer from the firm which I'm very happy about, all thanks to CityGrad!

K. S.

Christabel and Rich were both amazing at helping me find a role in a company that I'm really excited to start work with. They helped not only find the role, but introduced me to the company as well as doing prep calls. They supported me with every stage of the process quickly and efficiently. Could not have asked for a better experience and would recommend them to anyone looking for city and financial based work.

R. O. B.

From Christabel contacting me regarding a graduate opportunity to Rich calling me to inform me of receiving an offer, they were both very informative, made the whole experience enjoyable and significantly aided my job search. I am very thankful to both of them and the whole company!

R. S.

CityGrad recently helped me to secure a really exciting graduate opportunity within private equity. They were incredibly helpful throughout the recruitment process, from preparation calls before each stage of the process to frequently providing updates on what stage my application was at. Rich in particular was always friendly, reassuring and knowledgeable, and I really got the sense that this is a company that has your best interests at heart in trying to find the ideal role for you. I am very grateful for their assistance and would recommend them to any graduate seeking employment opportunities within finance without hesitation!

m. d.

Amazing recruitment company! Was honoured to be paired with the amazing Christabel, she made my application and transition into getting a graduate job easy and less stressful. Would definitely recommend citygrad!

W. M.

I recently completed a grad scheme application with CityGrad and the process was very refreshing. I had previously found pursuing graduate employment stressful, slow and impersonal. My most enjoyable, and ultimately rewarding, application was through CityGrad. The attention and information on offer throughout the process was amazing and Christabel deserves a special mention for her welcoming attitude and organisation - would thoroughly recommend to students seeking graduate employment.

L. H.

Graduate processes are innately tough, making CityGrad all the more invaluable for candidates. Christabel and her team clearly communicated each stage of process. She was also extremely quick in answering calls and emails (even on weekends), offering an atypical and personal level of service that can be easily lost when running competitive graduate schemes. The assessment centre balanced spontaneous and pre-prepared tasks, simultaneously offering candidates a level playing field and a chance to sell their prior experience. I cannot recommend CityGrad highly enough.

A. R.

CityGrad made the application and assessment experience so much less stressful and really helped me shine in the interview. I was kept well informed throughout and knew exactly what to do. This was the best recruitment experience I have had to date. A big thanks to Christabel and all her help!

C. W.

I have had a great experience with CityGrad and all of the help they have provided. I have recently obtained a grad job through them and cannot thank them enough. Christabel was so helpful and was there from the start of the application process providing interview tips and useful information. The whole team just seem like they genuinely care.

H. K.

I had such a great experience with both Christabel and Rich. The prep calls before each interview and the support given throughout the assessment day was really helpful. I highly recommend using CityGrad as I felt they genuinely cared about me and my job search. I can’t wait to start my role in September - thank you CityGrad!

C. P.

I worked with Rich and Christabel at CityGrad on two occasions for graduate roles, both times the service they provided was excellent. They really go to lengths ensuring that you are prepared for interviews and assessments, providing detailed company information and tips for interviews. The feedback they provide after each stage of the application process is comprehensive, and you get the sense that they really care about finding you a job! I would highly recommend CityGrad to anyone searching for a gradate role.

M. H.

Christabel and her team were amazing from start to finish! I was initially contacted on LinkedIn and two weeks later I had secured a graduate job. It was such a smooth process (even during a pandemic) and I cannot thank the team enough for setting me up with the opportunity.

n. n.

Reached out to me on LinkeIn about a job that I was quite interested in. Rich was very friendly and useful. The prep for the interview was quite good, and the process was very clearly explained. Once the interview came I didn't perform as well as I would have loved to. The nerves can get to all of us sometimes, but this is not the end of the world. Friendly and easy to talk to, I would recommend them to any students looking for a grad role.

C. D.

The service that CityGrad provided was extremely successful. The calls from Christabel and Rich before each stage were very useful in calming my nerves and helped me understand what was being asked of me. They were a great company to work with and managed to place me in a graduate role that I am extremely happy with.

A. P.

Rich and Christabel are brilliant recruiters. Thank you so much for your guidance throughout the recruitment process! They give helpful and honest advice, and truly care about matching graduates with roles that are a great fit. I'm 9 months into my role and absolutely love it, so thank you both.

I highly recommend citygrad. For the first time, the selection process felt human and exciting. Christabel and Rich are very helpful and supportive, with calls before each step and personalised feedback.

C. P.

I would recommend CityGrad to any recent graduate looking for their first role! Rich recently helped me to secure a really exciting job.

CityGrad were incredible at securing me interviews for graduate opportunities both within and outside of London. Christabel was particularly friendly and helpful, giving me lots of information about interviews I had coming up, and making sure I was fully prepared for the assessment days.

Really helpful, provided me with everything I needed to gain graduate employment. Christabel in particular was brilliant with regards to pointing me towards the opportunity most suited to my personality as well as prepping me for all sections of the interview stages.

C. C.

Christabel was amazing, she found my CV and contacted me with a great opportunity! She found me the perfect job to suit my unconventional degree and dedicated so much time and effort to reassuring me before my assessment day and made the day go really smoothly. Christabel was so friendly and made us all feel at ease allowing me to perform at my best on the day! I later received a job offer and couldn't be more grateful for Christabel's and Richard's help throughout the process :)

N. S.

A recruitment company that actually care about the candidate and make sure that the role is right for you. CityGrad and Christabel were excellent the whole way through the recruitment process. I felt like they really wanted the best for me and made sure I was comfortable and well prepared for the assessment day that I attended. I would recommend CityGrad for anyone looking to secure a great Graduate Role in London.

L. P.

Had a great experience with Rich and Christabel, who organised a brilliant assessment day, which led to me getting a fantastic graduate role. Communication was great from my initial application to me signing my contract, and the assessment day was organised in a really fun and relaxed way.

A. M.

I can't recommend CityGrad enough - I dealt mainly with Rich who guided me through the whole process, making sure I was prepared and confident for the assessment day. On the day both Christabel and Rich were present giving their support and encouragement, putting me at ease and helping me secure the position. This is a recruitment agency who genuinely cares about you as a person and wants you to succeed with a job that's right for you. Thanks so much for all your hard work!

I dealt with Christabel and Richard of CityGrad for a Graduate Associate opportunity with Bottomline Technologies. I attended their Assessment Day in Reading earlier this year. CityGrad's process was single-handedly the most clear and efficient experience I have been a part of. They scheduled me in for an initial telephone interview within the week and kept in great contact with my prior to the assessment day. Both Christabel and Richard were always on hand to answer any of my questions and helped with any prep work prior to interviews. CityGrad made the process extremely personalised and I have already recommended them to friends who are looking for employment. They really care about placing you with a company that is right for you - couldn't recommend CityGrad enough.

A. K.

I had a great experience using Citygrad. From the moment that Christabel found a job that she thought I would be well suited for, both herself and Rich were always on hand to answer any questions I had, undertake prep calls before both my telephone and face to face interview and give me swift feedback once I had completed my interviews! I found that Citygrad made the recruitment and application process as straight forward as it could be and this meant that I was able to secure a really exciting and interesting job within the space of about a week. I have already recommended Citygrad to some former colleagues and friends who I know are looking for employment and I have no doubt that they would have the same positive experience that I did.

N. I.

I had a great experience with CityGrad. Christabel provided advice, support and guidance throughout the application/interviewing process and as a result made the experience a lot more relaxed. I cannot recommend CityGrad enough.

I never thought that getting a job would be stress free but Christabel and Rich made this possible. Thanks for all your hard work and help!

I. W.

Was contacted by Richard Bowden of CityGrad for a graduate developer vacancy. The process was extremely efficient, not only was I scheduled in for an interview within the week but the communication was between myself and Richard was always consistent whether this was via message or call. Richard was down to earth, kind and funny. He was able to prepare for the interview and provide feedback on my performance. I was lucky enough to be offered the position which was only achievable through the support Richard provided. I would highly recommend using CityGrad and have nothing by kind words for Richard.

D. C.

Christabel was extremely helpful in assuring me that my graduate application was progressing smoothly, even going so far as to reach out on a bank holiday weekend when I had some questions, something I have never experienced from any other recruitment agency.
