Excellent end to end experience.

Such a refreshing experience working with VIQU. It really felt like we were a team working towards a common goal to reach a positive result, for the client and candidate.

So many agencies post vacancies for the masses or mail in the same way. Then it's a bun fight for both candidates & recruiters alike.
My experience with VIQU was different, it was very targeted and with recruiters actually being knowledge on the subject matter, which of cause will of great value for the client.

When the market does a 180, candidates will remember the good recruiters.
The ones who took the time listen, support, share insights, constructively challenge.
I will also say that the interview preparation materials shared by VIQU, were 1st class; they were tailor made for the client and role, putting me in the best possible position to maximise my performance on the day.

Aaron was front and center of this, advising where to address gaps or reword certain areas in my CV. The preparation documentation he suppled for the role were first class, which was followed up teams call the day before the 1st & 2nd stage interviews.
I really couldn't have asked for more.
Thank you Aaron.

A very positive experience overall

Phoebe at VIQU Recruitment was excellent throughout the process. Communication was clear, timely and professional, and I always felt well informed at each stage.

What really stood out was the time Phoebe spent helping me prepare for the interview. That level of support was unexpected, but it genuinely made a difference and helped me go into the conversation feeling more confident and focused.

A very positive experience overall, and I would happily recommend Phoebe and VIQU Recruitment.

Any candidate working with Katie D is truly lucky.

I had a really positive experience working with Katie D throughout the process for a permanent opportunity and felt it was important to reflect that.

From the outset, she was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive. She had a strong understanding of the client and the role, and was able to answer questions clearly without ever over-promising or exaggerating - which made a big difference.

What stood out most was her approach. At no point did I feel pushed or rushed into a decision. She was always open to questions, receptive to any concerns, and handled everything with a calm, thoughtful professionalism that made the whole process feel balanced and respectful.

Even when I ultimately decided not to move forward, she remained incredibly understanding and positive, which speaks volumes about her integrity and how she builds relationships.

In the current market, experiences like this are rare & any candidate working with Katie is in safe hands and can expect an exceptional experience.

Thank you Katie!

Great support throughout my job search

I had an excellent experience with VIQU. A big thank you to Phoebe Rees for supporting me throughout my job application and interview process. She was professional, friendly, and genuinely attentive.
Her response times—both on the phone and via email—were exceptional. Phoebe consistently checked in with me each week, staying fully up to date with my job search. Her communication was proactive, and I always felt well supported. She went the extra mile to follow up on my application and gather feedback from the hiring manager, keeping the process moving.
It was a real pleasure working with her. I highly recommend Phoebe and the team at VIQU.
Many thanks
