Finlay James Reviews 

Emily Brown made the experience seamless, she was on hand to talk through any reservations I had and made sure I had all the information I needed to get further with the interview. Even after I was offered the job, I was offered advice on resigning and this was an invaluable service I would recommend any candidates taking.

Hannah was superb to work with! She was so knowledgeable about the roles she had in mind for me. Her communication is incredible and she made sure to stay in constant contact with me throughout the process, even providing me with tips and tricks for my interviews!
Hannah still checks in with me to see how everything is going in my new role. I feel very lucky to have been able to work with her! Finlay James is very lucky to have such a talented, and caring, recruiter on their team!

The team were diligent and helpful during the interview process. Thank you.

Riona Lavin was an excellent recruiter, first going above and beyond to get my attention and standing out from the crowd, but then doing a wonderful job of articulating the opportunity and managing the relationship and process with my potential new employers. Great experience from end to end and now I’m in a life changing role :)

My experience with FJ was fantastic. My recruiter, Sophie, put me forward for loads interviews, all of which were relevant to what I wanted to do and placed me in a job within a month. She was also available the whole way through to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Would highly recommend!

When Alex reached out to me regarding this particular job opportunity I wasn't sure what to make of it as I had never been approached by a recruiter like this before.

Upon my response he was very helpful and soon booked a phone appointment. We had a general chat and he gave me a rough idea of the role and deduced that I could be a good fit. We scheduled a second phone appointment the same day.

His qualifying questions we considered and relevant. He then put me forward for a first interview.

He sent me a huge amount of information to help me prepare. Ranging from how to prepare for a first interview to what questions I may be asked, best practice etc.

He made it clear that if I had any questions I should not hesitate to ask.

Upon being invited for a second interview he was equally as helpful.

He and his colleague Natalie gave me 45 mins of their time to go through the role play giving me some great hints and tips. This was invaluable and really helped me to succeed when it mattered in my final interview.

Alex was delighted when I got offered the job.

He has been there every step of the way and we are still in regular contact.

I can't recommend Alex enough as a recruiter.

Adam from Finlay James reached out to me about a job opportunity and provided one of the best recruitment experiences of my career. From day one, Adam was an exemplary communicator, extremely attentive, and a great articulator of the role/company. Furthermore, he helped ensure that the process moved as quickly as possible and alerted me of any hiccups. Adam felt more like my career partner during to process. All of this resulted in me happily accepting the role. Adam’s level of service is highly unique and should be commended. I’d happily work with him again and will refer anyone looking for a job his way.

This was my first time ever going through an agency and the experience was very smooth! Would recommend.

Natalie went above and beyond to place me in a role and even though I had to pull out of the role in the end, she was still amazing and I would recommend Finlay James to anyone

My experience here has been amazing! I was working closely with Clare and was able to find the perfect opportunity & offer within just a few weeks. Clare is an all star and was awesome to work with!

Dominic assisted me with finding an employer that fit my personal, and professional needs. I feel like Dominic had my intention at heart, and wanted to make sure my needs were the priority, not him getting me placed. I have had a couple days with my new employer and I am loving it! Thanks Dominic!

Claire has made this process very easy and exciting. She worked well with connecting all bridges with the new company and Myself and always kept a close check in so both parties had the latest updates. Highly Recommend Finlay James!

Sophie Thomas has just helped me land my dream job, and I couldn't be happier with the support she gave me throughout my job search. From the outset, she filled me with confidence and helped me be as prepared as possible before every interview, and she gave me fantastic tips along the way. The opportunities which she presented to me were always relevant and exciting, and it was refreshing to work with such a great agency. Would definitely recommend Sophie and Finlay James for anyone looking for genuine people to help with their job hunt!

Good experience. Dan was personable, informative, thorough, and he followed through.

I’ve worked with Finley James twice, and both times I secured the job. It is the only recruiter I’ve ever worked with and it was such a great experience having someone guide me and give me feedback they’d received from the hiring company. Gareth is wonderful and I’d highly recommend him. Thorough, friendly, knowledgeable and communicative. Great experience!

I had a fantastic experience working with Gareth Fox at Finlay James. He helped me land a great job in a matter of weeks! He was persistent with me and the employer and helped me with tips for the interviewing process. Highly recommend!

I was reached out to by Rianna on LinkedIn two months ago, she was kind, informative, funny and an enjoyable person to engage with. She got me excited about the AnyRoad role and handled everything with the leadership on their side so that it was a smooth process. She got everything set up, made sure that I was in the loop, updated me promptly and always checked up on me in a way that made me felt cared about. I felt like we were friends by the end of the process and I actually looked forward to speaking with her about the updates and moving through the process with her. I ended up getting the role and Rianna and I celebrated together. I could really tell that she cared about my success and about me being placed in the right role for me. I tell everyone that I know just how seamless and lovely my experience was with Rianna and Finlay James. I am so grateful to her for reaching out to me and for being my cheerleader throughout the process. I would definitely work with Finley James again and will recommend it to everyone I know looking for a potential job transition!

One of the worst recruitment agencies I've ever talked to.. They ask you so many confidential questions regarding your past experiences (the quota, revenue target, commissions, etc.) to share-sell with the competitor businesses. They even want them in the written format :D (it's a bit ignorant tho). after, never let you know about your interview process. So, if you are a candidate and came across to this agency somehow, it's better not to spend time even doing the first call with them.

Worked with a few recruiters out of this office over the years - don't lie to yourself if you are a candidate - they are not going to do what's best for you, only what gets them the most commission - and will hinder you ability to get a role based on their bias, favors owed, etc. Their lack of honesty/transparence and ethics is shocking, won't give honest feedback ever, think of silver tongued used car salesman, but a recruiter. I realized I was just in the mix to help their client justify a decision that had already been made - wasted hours going through interviews when another candidate had already been chosen - but the client needed to check the box that they interviewed other candidates, the FJ rep knew this but lied anyway, verified by an employee after the fact.

Had an appointment booked and confirmed with a consultant Luke Cubbage. This done in response to a Call from Edan Marley. Luke Cubbage never showed up. Neither have voice mail on there phone, neither responded to messages. Just rude
