Chef.fe de Produit – Instruments & Consommables Chromatographie
My experience of working with VRS was exceptional. From initial contact until they successfully placed me into a graduate role. They went above and beyond to ensure I was prepared for the interview and provided an approachable but professional service. Would highly recommend using VRS to get your job.
From the moment I registered online with VRS they responded right away and took the time call me, and get to know more about me and my career objectives. The staff were really knowledgeable about the job market, and very supportive and approachable. What impressed me the most was their insight of the scientific field and they were able to match my skill set with positions that I hadn’t originally considered by myself. It was one of those positions that I ended up getting and I’m very happy in my new job. VRS has good relationships with some of the major scientific companies, and several of my colleagues also found their positions through VRS. Highly recommended.
I thoroughly recommend VRS as a competent agency to secure decent quality staff. The team are always a pleasure to deal with and I’m comfortable that they have a good understanding of the type of candidate I am looking for, both in terms of skill set and personality. Rather than bombarding me with unsuitable CV’s and hoping that one will stick I am confident that each prospect has a clear grasp on the vacancy and is well suited to the agency before being put forward for the role. VRS are a professional and tenacious recruiter and I enjoy doing business with them.
