    “I have been lucky enough to have come across Wote Street People during a networking event. On the very same day they have shared multiple opportunities and have helped me secure a temporarily role in within days, whilst proactively seeking a long term opportunity for me. Because of that I was able to land into my next permanent role the day after my temporary role ended during an unprecedented time of difficulty. All the staff comes across very friendly and they are genuinely interested in listening and understanding your priorities matching your skillset against relevant roles. I have personally dealt with Matt who has gone above and beyond to help me. I would not hesitate to recommend Wote Street People to anyone as they have offered by far one of the best and most personable service I have ever received”.

    Just wanted to email to let you know I have successfully completed my job search and to thank you personally for our CV review meeting earlier on in the process. I found the session really helpful and also particularly appreciated you forwarding my details on to partner employment agencies. My new role is as Head of Development … a national representative and membership organisation for charities and not for profits working in the disability field and is right up my street, so thanks once more. Best regards and keep in touch.

    After leaving a long-term role at a local company, I had been working with a number of nationwide recruitment agencies with very little success. I contacted Wote Street People and Maxine and her team immediately focused on my strengths and skills, not just my qualifications and experience. After helping me adjust my CV, I looked at the market with new optimism and within weeks I took up a new role at a much higher level than I had previously planned.

    The key benefit that Wote Street People offers is the ability to truly understand the role being sought. Not only the qualifications and physical skills, but also the understanding of the type of people and culture and how prospective candidates will fit into an organisation. This is a key reason as to why we use Wote Street People.

    The people at Wote Street People are really helpful and very friendly, they are driven and care deeply about the needs of their clients. Wote St. all the way!

It is not about being a therapist. Regular (physical) First Aid[…..]
