Healthworks Recruitment Testimonials

I would just like to thank you Patricia, firstly for contacting me with regards to the vacancy of Health and Safety Advisor with your Client. I have never dealt with such a professional,caring and understanding person such as yourself in the field of recruitment. From start to finish, your input was invaluable and your understanding of how my skills could be transferred from one area to another, showed that you recognise potential in people. It is easy to see why companies use your expertise in recruitment and trust your judgment to provide them with the best candidate. Other agencies I have contacted put no where near the effort into finding me suitable employment and lacked in the personal approach which you on the other hand exceeded and made me feel like a valued professional. Myself and my family are over the moon with this opportunity I have been given and wish to thank you from the bottom of our hearts and would without question recommend your company. Andrew Lockhart - Health & Safety Advisor Independent Healthcare

They pro-actively found my CV, and Patricia was fantastic at really understanding me and articulating my value to the company.I felt they were on my side all the way and all dealings have been extremely professional." Angeline Westley - Business Development Manager Independent Care Sector

"Having worked in recruitment myself and having interfaced with many recruitment consultants over several years, I can honestly say that Patricia is the best I have come across. She saw my CV online and immediately saw the breadth but moreover the depth before cold-calling me about a superb job. She was then terrier-like in ensuring I was in a face-to-face position with the company, who have subsequently hired me! She is a consumate professional, incredibly astute and intuitive, and always stuck to promised deadlines. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her/working with her again and frankly she should be cloned across the recruitment sector." David Allison - National Business Development Manager Independent Healthcare

It gives a positive attitude to those that work in such stressful areas of work as the health service. It is a recruitment company that I would recommend to many of my colleagues that are looking for a change of direction." Thanks Patricia. Catherine Rooney - Analyst Nurse Independent Healthcare

I am pleased to recommend and thank Healthworks Recruitment for supporting me in my career development. Patricia Farrell contacted me regarding a management position in London. From the first contact I found her to be professional and supportive throughout the recruitment process. I was made to feel special, particularly in regard to my experience as a nurse and manager . Patricia arranged an interview and provided me with all the relevant information together with a lot of reassurance. Straight after the interview I was called just to find out how it went and she was again very supportive. When Patricia learned that I was successful was she was so happy and called immediately to congratulate me and inform me of the of all the necessary details. Patricia kept in touch throughout and she contacted me after a few days just to find out how I was settling in to my new job. To my amazement Patricia called me again after one month just to find out how things were and she was as usual reassuring as before, unlike some people in her profession who lose interest after a placement has been made. Patricia is very professional and at the same time very warm and kind hearted. THANKS TO Patricia Farrell and Healthworks Recruitment.

Their knowledge of the role and the requirements were exceptional, which was helpful when deciding the direction my career should be taking. The Healthworks team were knowledgeable, not only regarding the role, but their Client's profile and the in-house recruitment processes and there was always contact and support if I had any queries or questions.

Emma Keane - Disability Analyst Independent Healthcare

“I was approached by Healthworks Recruitment, namely Patricia for a senior post in the Independent Sector. Having never previously experienced executive search and recruitment but heard lots of stories, I was really impressed and pleased with the smooth professional and efficient way in which I was looked after. Throughout Patricia explained the process and stages and supported me in securing the post. The whole process was expedited in a much shorter period of time compared with traditional recruitment processes but did not lack any of the thoroughness one would normally expect. At no point did I gain the impression that Patricia or her team was merely chasing commission and I felt very strongly that they equally wanted to be sure that the post met my needs as well.” "Now as I have used Patricia on more than one occasion to identify candidates for various positions within the hospitals I have managed. I have always found Patricia able to understand the brief effectively and as such identify appropriate candidates for the post. It has always been my experience that Healthworks Recruitment undertakes to shortlist prior to presentation ensuring that only candidates who have a genuine interest and the right set of skills are introduced. This has ensured that time has not been wasted with unnecessary screening of candidates and has always resulted in me being able to appoint to the posts from the introductions made by Healthworks Recruitment".
