Consultant testimonials

"I worked for Harpur for three and half years and found it to be a very refreshing, people orientated company. There was a real team spirit which benefited us, our candidates and clients. Harpur maintained a meritocracy enabling me to progress quickly and to get my foot on the property ladder within a year of working for the company. Working at Harpur made recruitment an extremely enjoyable profession to work in an industry that is known for being quite cut throat. I often look back at my time at Harpur and am tempted to go back in to recruitment and if I did it would be with them." SP

"I have now been in recruitment for fifteen years and I can say that the years spent with Harpur were the best I have had in the industry; I worked for them for two periods initially as a Trainee and latterly as a Manager before relocating overseas." JS

"I worked for Harpur for over 5 years and was very grateful for the training and support they gave me. The training was fist class and there was a great balance between support and the ability to work on your own initiative. Your ideas were always listened to, you felt significant and part of a real team." MG

"Harpur are an unusual agency as despite being in a highly competitive industry, their internal management style is relaxed and supportive. You learn to be very thorough and standards are very high. Yet you never feel overly pressurised or that you can't ask for help off your colleagues or managers" GT

"Recruitment can be a tough industry to work in but I found Harpur to be one of the most flexible employers I have ever worked for. I ultimately was able to work for them on a part time basis following the birth of my children. They also help me set up a home office to ensure to facilitate this" SB

"We worked very hard and there was a constant emphasis on client services and never compromising quality. The atmosphere was positive, professional, always helpful and friendly. I had great fun and being an Australian, really enjoyed the Temporaries Desk having a lot of contact with my fellow countrymen" LD
