Unresponsive and lazy Gemma will spam you with job opportunity emails and messages but then not reply to a question, query or application. They don't have respect if a candidate is not the right fit for a role. It's worth bearing in mind that a candidate could be a good fit for another or future opportunity. Their approach is transaction based and lazy.

Very good overall Overall, Core were very good to work with. I was properly prepared for the interview process by Hollie who provided an up-front briefing on the role, setting out what the client was looking for. For various reasons, the client was quite slow at progressing the process (over 6 months between initial discussion and offer). Hollie kept me informed. She also apologised and followed up when the client failed to dial-in for one of the interviews. Hollie followed up after each of the 3 interviews.

They send unsolicited spam emails *Update* After yet another email today I managed to get in touch with the MD, who did actually reply. I am not a 'registered candidate', my email is not publicly available on LinkedIn. So we'll see... *Update* Still getting spam emails! They send unsolicited spam emails, full of spelling mistakes, without ever looking at the target market. (What the hell would I want with a Python programmer?) I wouldn't trust them to fetch a sandwich, let alone place a candidate. --Edit to response -- I shouldn't have to "unsubscribe", my point is that you've added my email address to your list without my permission. Why would any candidate trust you with their personal information if you steal email addresses from LinkedIn?

Rude and unprofessional. The unprofessionalism and how rudely I was treated by Sandie was completely unacceptable! She will call or text you at least 3/4 times a week, texts tend to have explanation marks on the end and she will not admit a mistake when made. I will be pushing further about this employee as many people under her care, are also complaining about the same situation.

Sheila is a diamond! Sheila has been an absolute pleasure to worth with. She is the only recruiter I have worked with who actually listens to what my needs and goals are, and really tailors her proposals (often with others, you get the scattergun approach which demoralising and a waste of everyone's time!). I really enjoy speaking with her and I feel that her human approach to recruitment is one in a million. It makes the arduous process of job hunting much more bearable. Although I have not quite landed my dream job yet, I truly believe that Sheila will be the one to help me get there!
