Jon is a helpful guy who reached out to me even though I'm not in the industry. Most recruiters kick me to the curb due to that, but not Jon. He was keen to ensure I was fit to move, interview and we'll researched. He even sent me a last minute reminder text while on holiday. Great stuff.

And approached me having seen potential in my very poorly formatted CV and found me a great job helping me to craft my CV for the role and prepare for the interview. Unlike previous recruiters I did feel like he wanted to get the best job for me and my career not just a commission. Highly recommended

I have dealt with Johnathan who was a great help in making sure that all information was given and fed back extremely quickly allowing progression to happen very rapidly. I would have no problem recommending Interface for any candidate or any company that are looking to employ people. The service that Interface provide is passionate, dedicated and 1st class professionalism. Once again Thank you Interface Team for believing and achieving the best from your candidates.

I have worked with the employees of Interface for a number of years now, both as a candidate and an employer. Throughout that time, Interface have set themselves aside from the pack by having a genuine desire to place the right person in the right role. All too many agencies seem to place the emphasis on quantity of candidates presented, neglecting the quality.

My experience with Interface Recruitment has been excellent. I had a very positive experience with Jon who was very personable, and I appreciate his professional and heartening advice throughout the process. When I seek a new role in the future, they will be the first to be contacted. I would highly recommend Interface to anyone.

I worked with Andy Hulme and he was extremely helpful. Andy spent time understanding my exact requirements and then sourced a company which met my specification perfectly. I've worked with a lot of recruitment agents sending me to interviews that don't match my criteria/skill-set. The whole process was easy and very little time was wasted.
