Hi Deborah
Hope you’re well.
I just wanted to pass on to you how pleased we’ve been with the service Leona has given us over the past few months, recently culminating in securing Kate Webster’s placement with us. I had discussed with Leona that we were looking to boost the activity and energy levels within our existing Sales Team; Kate has done just that. She has been a fantastic addition to the team and within two weeks of starting, has already made two placements.
We’ve not had much luck working with other Rec-to-Recs in the past, but Leona has really stood out in making the effort to understand our culture and we genuinely feel like she’s working hard to find people for us.
As we both know all too well, people are always quick to criticise Recruiters when they’re not performing, so I thought it only right that we commend them when they do.
Thanks to you and your team and I look forward to continue working with you in the future.
All the best
Alex
Hamilton James & Bruce
Just a quick note to say thank you for all your help over the past year in getting me settled here in Sydney - without your determined assistance I'd still be stuck in dreary England, so I am eternally grateful to you!
Joking apart, I was very impressed with the service I have had from you and Caroline. From our initial meeting in London to my settling in to Hamilton James & Bruce here in Sydney you exceeded my expectations in terms of service and professionalism, doing everything you said you would and more.
When I arrived in Sydney for interviews last year you did exactly what you said you would do, and had 6 opportunities lined up for me. I was very grateful for your industry knowledge and understanding of the culture in the companies I interviewed with. Through circumstances neither of us could have foreseen, the first placement didn't work out. However, you both helped me pick up the pieces to achieve my goal of joining Hamilton James & Bruce, which is a perfect fit for me professionally and culturally.
Your professionalism and down to earth, no-nonsense manner were very refreshing to work with and I am more than happy to continue to refer any colleagues to you.
Warm regards
Simon Smith
The Credit Recruitment Specialists
A note to thank you and your team for referring particularly valuable candidates to us while we have actively grown our market share and business during the last 12 months. It's also timely for me to thank you for your willingness to share your extensive industry knowledge with me during that last 10 years.
As you know, our first meeting is imprinted in my memory, as it was you who encouraged me to start 'The Credit Recruitment Specialists' - now a market leader in our area of specialty (and just recently the first company awarded 'Recruitment Industry Best Practice', a huge achievement and one I'm very proud of!
More testament to your industry knowledge of course is the time I chose to ignore your advice - albeit, my decision led to some challenges which gave me a few great learning opportunities!
I thoroughly enjoy working in this industry. I enjoy and value the interaction with colleagues, clients, candidates and peers who strive to keep it successful, professional and ethical. Without doubt I would include you in this group and describe you as a leader in your field.
Thanks again for the contribution Scott Recruitment Services has made to the success of The Credit Recruitment Specialists - I'm sure there are lots of other organizations and personalities in this industry who would very quickly extend their own thanks too.
Best Regards

Beresford Blake Thomas
Please accept this letter as a personal thank-you to both you and your organisations recent assistance in the opening our Sydney office, although it represents the twenty fourth Beresford Blake Thomas office globally it is our second Australian office and fifth in the Southern hemisphere.
Coming from the UK to open Sydney I found sourcing the right type of individual as like most places in the world challenging. Finding individuals, let alone two at once, that possess the correct local and industry knowledge to kick off a business whilst at the same time representing the particular cultural fit that we feel makes a BBT consultant a cut above the rest is far from easy.
Covering two very disparate sector's such as Technical and Professional as well as Health and Social Care just adds to the complexity of the task. It is therefore refreshing as well as a testament to the service you have provided that despite following several avenues Scott recruitment was able to fill both our vacancies.
Therefore having a significant input in our journey to becoming a truly national operator within Australia.
Many thanks once again for your help.
Regards

It is not a difficult decision to utilise the services of Scott Recruitment in Melbourne. We have had much success with appointments into Cadden Crowe. The key differentiator is being treated with mutual respect, listening to the needs and presenting the right fit, not just a candidate.
I look forward to continuing our growth and success with great partners like Scott Recruitment Services.

Angie and I met Rosemary Scott in London in late Sep 05, where we discussed opportunities in Oz. By this time we were already scheduled to fly out at the end of the month, to Australia to see friends and speculatively present ourselves to recruitment consultancies, and NZ to attend pre arranged interviews.
To be totally honest we were sceptical and didn't think Rosemary would be able to help at this late stage, but thought what the hell if nothing else it will give us another perspective and some information on the market in OZ. (hey recruitment is all about market knowledge).
Boy how wrong were we?! When the "Rosemary Scott machine" gets going hold on to your hat! Within three days of meeting Rosemary we had several client interviews lined up, followed by another 4 before we touched down in OZ just 10 days later.
The interviews were all in relevant industry sectors - in Angie's case Scientific/Pharmaceutical and Engineering in mine, the clients ranged from the standard KPI driven UK model right through to specialist search and selection, every one was exactly how Rosemary had described them.
The whole process was managed with military precision between Rosemary (from 14000+ miles away) and her phenomenal office staff here in Sydney, yes I did say here in Sydney. Angie and I have been here since Dec 9th 05 and love it.
In the end it was a struggle to decide which of the offers to accept; I ended up choosing the specialist search and selection consultancy, where I am extremely happy and my wife chose a specialist pharmaceutical services provider and she is equally as happy.
Massive thanks to Rosemary and her team for their amazing work. If there is rec to rec organisation that delivers it's Scott Recruitment.
Incidentally we liked our prospective new companies so much as well as falling in love with Sydney, that we cancelled our trip to NZ including the interviews.
BTW Angie has 8 years recruitment experience and I have just 2 years in engineering. We should have done this years ago!

Lloyd Morgan has worked with Alex and the team in Melbourne for some time and consider Scott Recruitment Services as a key partner in helping us grow our business.
Having worked with the Melbourne team personally for a number of years I have great confidence in their ability to think outside the square, validate great talent and recognise the small 'intricacies' we all look for when looking to compliment an already fantastic team.
Time and time again they stand out from their competitors by understanding the true meaning of value.

We recently used Rosemary Scott of Scott Recruitment to fill a General Management position within our firm. This was a crucial appointment within our organisation and as a result needed a specific type of person to fulfil the requirements. Rosemary understood our need clearly and provided us with a number of suitable candidates of which we selected one.
We were always aware of where we stood with each prospective jobseeker throughout the process and expectations from both sides were clearly set.
Of the three agencies we used on this assignment, Scott Recruitment provided us with the better service, a larger range of candidates and at the end of the process provided us with the best candidate.
I would use Rosemary again without hesitation for a senior appointment and would highly recommend her to any other organisations that are looking to do the same.
I can be contacted on 9270 5200 for further information.

I would like to thank Scott Recruitment for its fantastic service in placing me in my preferred role in the recruitment industry.
As we previously discussed, I will be moving into the recruitment industry without prior experience, thus the role of Scott Recruitment in educating and advising me proved vital to achieving my objective of a revolutionary career move.
Your consultant, Leona Stojak had a terrific grasp of my aspirations and employment background and her contacts within the recruitment industry led to interviews in both large international and smaller boutique firms. This exposure to a variety of firms allowed me to gain a greater appreciation of their businesses and my possible roles therein.
Leona was thoroughly honest and professional in all her dealings and from the feedback I received at interviews, very well regarded across the industry. Please pass on my sincere thanks to Leona.
I will certainly refer any of my contacts who may be considering moving into the industry, or changing firms within the industry, to obtain Scott Recruitment’s services to assist them in achieving their desired result.
Kindest regards,
Ben Jones

Thank you for facilitating the recent sale of the Brisbane branch of my business. The speed and simplicity with which the negotiations progressed and the introduction of more than one potential buyer certainly kept the momentum up and the price competitive.

Early this year, as Principal and Managing Director of Willis Management Consultants Pty Ltd, I commissioned Rosemary Scott of Scott Recruitment Services to assist in the sale of my company.
The sale of the business was successfully consummated in May 2003.
My experience with Rosemary and her Company was very positive. She is a highly experienced HR professional who is widely known and respected in the industry. Her business success is predicated on a comprehensive process including a targeted advertising programme supplemented by extensive networking and thorough screening of interested parties.
Based on our business dealings to date, I have no hesitation in recommending Rosemary and her business broking service.

"I just wanted to take the time to pass on my high regard for the consultant in your company who has been dealing with me for the last couple of weeks. They took the time to interview me thoroughly, kept in regular contact and put me forward to a good selection of agencies resulting in a great offer from an impressive firm. Scott Recruitment Services dealt with me very professionally throughout the process and really made me feel as though I was a valued and important candidate.
As it turns out I have not taken the offer presented to me, but this in no way reflects upon the Consultant who did everything in their power to ensure I had no concerns, was happy with the offer and understood the opportunity being given. I intend to recommend Scott Recruitment Services highly to any of my friends or associates who are looking for work and truly believe this consultant is a credit to your company.
It was a pleasure to work with Scott Recruitment (your receptionist is fab too). Should I need any assistance with finding employment in the future I will favour Scott due to your team’s style, consultative manner and professionalism."
