“Very varied due to the differing levels of positions we needed help hiring for.”

“Our issue was finding the high calibre of candidates we wanted to fill this important position, what we were wanting wasn’t available to us on the open market so needed the assistance of an experienced recruiter.”
How did Integro differ from the previous recruitment agencies you used?
“Sarah provided very detailed feedback from the post-interview talks with the candidates helping us understand where we stood, she was also able to clearly understand our reasoning for certain feedback with candidates and was able to present that to them with clear insight.

Would you recommend Integro’s “Dedicated Search” service?
“Our issue was finding the high calibre of candidates we wanted to fill this important position, what we were wanting wasn’t available to us on the open market so needed the assistance of an experienced recruiter.
Sarah took a very focused approach to what we required and uncovering the talent we wanted for us as a business.”
The Outcome
How many quality candidates did you get sent?
"Filling a senior position can sometimes be an immediate fix or a lengthy process, this time it wasn’t a quick fix as we wanted to make sure we had the right person in place to fit with the business right away. Sarah was able to produce 3 candidates that were suitable for the role and 1 that was outstanding."
What was pleaseing about Integros Service?
“Sarah did exactly what we wanted to do and took it as a personal challenge because it was a such a difficult position to recruit for.
It seemed that she was like “look I’ve started and I’m not going to fail”
The Head of Property Management is a difficult position to recruit for and there were few candidates at a level we wanted but what Sarah was able to achieve was sensational.”
Did Sarah Hardy (Head of Property Services) offer anything different to recruiters you worked with previously?
“I came to Sarah as I had dealt with her as a candidate in the past, her approach to me while I was trying to find a new role was excellent so I knew that she would be able to deliver a suitable result.
I have spoken with dozens of recruiters who all claim to be specialists in the property industry but speaking with Sarah you really get the sense she understands the market as a whole and that helped her find the right candidate for us.”
