'During my 22 year career I have been involved in many recruitment projects as a recruiter. Recently I changed jobs and was for once on the other side of the fence, as a candidate, where Grace Ellams, of Ellams Thomas International, was the recruitment consultant. The recruitment process for the organisation I eventually joined was onerous and lengthy. However, Grace worked tirelessly to ensure that I felt comfortable with, and understood, the various steps I had to go through as I progressed through the process. The follow-up from Grace before, during and after my recruitment was first class. It was a pleasure to deal with Grace. Her professionalism, attitude, knowledge, and care make her stand out, in my mind, as the best recruitment consultant I have worked with. She knows her area so well that she brings tremendous value to the whole recruitment process, for both the employer and the potential employee.'
