Carrie Daniels, Talent Acquisition Manager, Animal Friends Insurance

I responded to a Recruitment Manager advert that had been forwarded on by a friend. The advert gave a great picture of the role and business, it ticked a lot of the boxes in terms of the job I was searching for. From the outset, I was impressed by the speed of response from Lee – I enquired about the role on a Sunday and he came straight back to me with further information. Lee was able to identify that I could be a suitable candidate quite quickly. He had a genuine and excellent understanding of the role, I felt I could trust him and was comfortable that the role seemed like a good match to my skills and experience. My job search was moving quite quickly and I appreciated the speed that Lee was able to progress my application with Animal Friends. Lee gave me a great insight into the challenges and requirements of the role as well as information about the culture and future plans of Animal Friends. I was given a good overview of what to expect from the interview which enabled me to be as prepared as possible within a short time-frame. I was offered the role very quickly following my interview which was great. Lee kept in touch in the lead up to me starting my new role and during my first few weeks to see how I was settling in. I was impressed by the speed and level of communication from Lee throughout the process, keeping me updated on next steps even when he was going through airport security! Lee was engaging, enthusiastic and easy to talk to, it was an enjoyable experience. My new job is everything that I understood it to be and more.
