Having had poor experiences with recruitment agents previously I was reluctant to use their services however Claire has changed my mind. Claire takes time to understand the business needs, she is friendly, honest, supportive and has saved us so much time in the recruitment process. Her help has been quite invaluable and I would not hesitate to use Claire and Bailey Hunter for all our future requirements

Claire was great at finding me interviews and securing me with a job offer. She knew exactly what I was looking for, was attentive and really helped with the interview preparation by having a video call and talking me through key points. Claire was even available when she was away and after her work hours. I didn’t accept the offer that Claire helped me secure but she was understanding and has followed up with me since to check how I was getting on. I would definitely recommend Claire to anyone else that is looking for legal work.
