I was approached by Dianne regarding a specific role. Her communication and friendly manner throughout the application process was spot on and she was more than helpful with any issues that came about. I highly recommend Forward Assist.

Very refreshing experience as a job seeker. Dianne has provided me with ongoing communication about a role I was seeking, furthermore it seemed she really cared to get the right fit for the employer matching up with my experiences and personal needs. I would highly recommend Forward Assist as a job seeker even from a recruitment pov (which I'm not currently in), owing to the above but also explaining to me exactly what they're looking for beyond the job description.

I applied for a role through Forward Assist Recruitment Ltd after a career in forces of just over 11 years. Job hunting and applying for very new to me but the support I recieved was incredible. From first applying Dianne got in touch and has been very supportive throughout, chasing up companies I have applied with and giving me advice when attending assessment centres/interviews. 100% Reccomend!

OUTSTANDING RECRUITMENT Transitioning from a full carrer to starting a new one was very daunting for me! The amount of interviews I had with no feedback was shocking! However, here is a service that stood by with me from the outset. A true professional service that has set me on the path to (fingers crossed) success. From initial contact to my start date. I was asked how it was going and even contacted the company on my behalf to get the process moved on. Thank you to Dianne especially for helping me, she is truly professional and dedicated to ensure that I was content all the way through. Thank you 👍🏼

Do not waste your time with this agency. They advertised for Traffic Marshall's for a COVID 19 testing site in Portsmouth. I applied and was very quickly told that I was down for the Portsmouth site. A week later I had not heard anything but I did know that the Portsmouth testing site had already been open at that stage for 10 days. I e-mailed Forward Assist and explained all of this to them and asked them what the position was. They e-mailed me back saying "We haven't been told anything". !!!!!!!! I heard nothing further from Forward Assist ( this was 1 month ago). Do not waste your time with this agency - because they will waste yours.
