Good, personable recruiters

Thank you to Harvey for his friendly and personable approach to candidates.

Although we decided the role wasn't for me, it was refreshing to speak with such a genuinely supportive recruiter and his team, conveying professionalism and a true sense of competency. They are clearly experienced in working hard to support the best candidates.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Supportive, comforting and exciting

Everyone I had contact with during the interview phase was being very supportive and nice, asked the right questions and all, but I believe me being a bit questioning had more to do with that I was not prepared being contacted from the UK. Since I had only applied for jobs in Stockholm, Sweden I was not ready to talk about myself and my experiences in English.

Also, this type of recruitment processes is not something I’m familiar with, not that it was bad, just very new to me.

The assessment day was also a totally new concept for me, but everyone from Pareto was very nice and supportive. It was very clear what was expected from us as candidates during the day.

Again, this is probably a feedback that is very specific for my experience - since Pareto UK handled the recruitment for a Swedish office - but if I were to say something ”bad” it would probably be that as a person that’s only been in Swedish recruitment processes before I think we appreciate more clarification around the contract part. I really liked that we received an answer on how it went at the end of the assessment day, but I would have appreciated more info about the contract, work environment, policies etc.

Over all it was a great experience, regardless I was offered the job or not, I would definitely do it again with Pareto to meet new people and to develop myself and learn about businesses.

Good experience

Had a good experience with the pareto team, Shakira was especially helpful and friendly. The interview process could be more streamlined and succinct, i also found there were discrepancies between the information given about prospective job roles compared to the actual roles, so something to be mindful of. Overall a good experience with room for improvement.

Great experience with Archie Ambler

Great experience with Archie Ambler. He really guided me through the process and prepared me to succeed. You could hear his passion to help through the phone and he was never too busy for a phone call if I had any questions. I really appreciate his help and guidance!

I had a great experience with Pareto. A big shout out to Archie!

Shoutout to Nicole!!

The woman who helped me prepare for each interview stage, Nicole, was absolutely amazing, without her I doubt I would have even gotten to the second stage. And even when I was anxious about the results she assured and gave me confidence

Under a week from application to job offer

I had initially applied to Reed Jobs who forwarded my Cv to Pareto shortly after. Within 24 hours I had received a call from Catherine Alexander about an opportunity that suited me. A very good one. 2 days later I had another call with Amy who then setup an interview with the hiring company the following day. Within 2 hours of the interview I had received a job offer.

What can I say, incredibly quick, easy and professional service. Incredible communication from Shakira who answered any question I had no matter how trivial. Couldn’t be happier with the service I have received.

Anna and Zoe have been super amazing to me! I passed my assessment day and the next day I was contacted about potential roles, which is amazing. The day was quite long and tiring but I believe it was worth it in the end! Thanks for the support and help so far, I would definitely recommend them to my friends who are looking to go into sales.
