I would just like to thank Saorla for everything! From the first day of submitting my CV to the agency Saorla made contact straight away to chat with me to get a sense of exactly what career I was looking to branch into. Every vacancy that she put forward to me was exactly what I had in mind; it was like she picked up straight away from our initial chat, as you would say “She hit the nail on the head”! After two short months I was starting in my new role which I love! From start to finish the professionalism, the contact, the efficiency and follow ups can only be rated 10/10!! She even called in to visit me in my new job 5 months into my new role to see how I was settling in, no other recruitment agency that I have ever worked with have had interest in their clients like Saorla. Again, Saorla I cannot thank you enough for making everything so easy and speedy!

“Group Marketing Manager - Hospitality”
When I started looking for a new job, Saorla from the OCS Recruitment, found me on LinkedIn. She sent me a message asking if she could contact me, I said yes, and we had a brief conversation over the phone, she was very nice and attentive. At the time I didn't think she was going to contact me soon about any job opportunities, however within a week later she called me with an amazing opportunity and booked the interview. Her support to book the interview was necessary, as I was working, and I wasn't fully available. Thankfully, I got the job, and she kept checking with me, and following up until nowadays! I 100% recommend OCS Recruitment, they assist you from the start of your job search until after you get your job. Thanks, Saorla for everything!
