We had an excellent experience working with Compass Point Recruitment, led by Rebecca Thurlow. From the outset, Rebecca took the time to understand our business, culture, and the specific requirements of the role we were recruiting for. The quality of candidates presented was consistently high, and Rebecca’s market knowledge and honest advice were invaluable throughout the process. Communication was clear, timely, and professional, and we always felt fully informed at each stage. Thanks to Rebecca’s diligence and commitment, we successfully appointed a candidate who has been an excellent fit for both the role and our wider team. We would not hesitate to recommend Compass Point Recruitment to any business seeking a reliable, knowledgeable, and personable recruitment partner.

I am very unhappy, the staff member i spoke to was very rude, incredibly so. I will not be using this service if you can call it that. Very unprofessional. Steer clear, very clear.

I had an amazing experience with Compass Point Recruitment Ltd! Brigita was absolutely wonderful — so friendly, patient, and really supportive throughout the whole process. She helped me a lot with finding the right job and made everything so much easier. I’m really grateful for her help and would definitely recommend Compass Recruitment Ltd to anyone looking for a new opportunity!

Thanks to Compass Point Recruitment Ltd I have found and secured a new job. They have guided me through the process, organised interviews, and one of them was a success which landed me with an offer, which I am happily accepted. I believe that my job hunt was a success as Compass Recruitment recommended me to businesses relevant to my education and work experience. Confidentiality by Compass allowed me not to worry that my management at my previous work would unneccessary worry. Obviously, once I secured a new job, I have agreed a generous Notice to leave with my previous job. I do change my jobs rarely, usually every 5, or ten years, so guidance from Compass was helping to cover gaps in work searching skills. Thanks!

I want to specially thank Rebecca for helping secure my next role. She was very supportive from start to finish. She connected me to a role that ticked all the boxes for me. Communication was on par. I love how she championed my course and made everything move very fast: from my first point of contact with her to my offer acceptance took just under 2 weeks. I can't thank and commend her enough. She's an absolute professional!

The person i spoke to on the phone today was very condescending and rude, she actually laughed at me. Im a supervisor at a food production company, I'm looking for a change and the woman on the phone was incredibly difficult to deal with. Completely useless infact. Do not waste your time. Call another agency, maybe one that has trained staff, or even polite staff. Very disappointed.
