“Cameron Kennedy is easily the most professional recruitment company that I have come across. I had had numerous negative experiences with recruiters where there was a complete lack of information passed back to me and where I was under the impression that the most important thing about my CV was that a recruiter had bothered to read it. By contrast Cameron Kennedy seemed to understand the strengths that I presented. This was reflected in the job that I was put forward for and also in the information that was fed back to me. I was kept continually informed as to my progress through the recruitment procedure, which provided valuable feedback and enabled me to assess my chances of success. That combined with the last little pep talk which steadied my nerves and focussed my thoughts were definitely major contributors to me landing the excellent job that I currently enjoy”.

"I have had contact with a number of recruitment agencies but CK stood out and impressed me more than others for a number of reasons. The people that work there actually know about their clients, understand their business and what they want from the people they employ. This means that they are able to promote the right jobs to the right candidates, not pushing forward unsuitable roles. CK actively promoted me to the kind of companies that fitted into what I was looking for to help me develop my career. They provided balanced advice on the roles they put forward and honest and prompt feedback. I look forward to starting my new job next month and I still hope to be a millionaire by the time I'm thirty. Well, at least I've got the new job to look forward to".

"I was very impressed by the honesty and helpfulness of Cameron Kennedy who were genuinely interested in finding me good roles and not once did they try and get me to go down the product control route. I was given a tremendous amount of support and advice - especially regarding CV production, preparation for interviews, and production of presentation slides. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a new role or looking to recruit".

"My experience with Cameron Kennedy was fantastic. Cameron Kennedy provided a significantly better service than all the other recruitment consultancies I had signed up with, putting me forward for a number of interviews for roles that I actually wanted to do, and for companies that I wanted to work for, and would be suited to (this contrasts with other consultancies who consistently suggested roles that I had specifically told them I did not want to do). I’d certainly recommend Cameron Kennedy to others looking for work in the financial sector.

"My consultant at Cameron Kennedy is above and beyond the most professional, helpful, efficient and genuine recruitment agent I've ever come across! Within half an hour of receiving my CV he'd called me to arrange an interview, refreshingly mentioning that he'd like to meet me before suggesting any work so that he could get a real feel for what positions I may suit. The interview gave me every hope that Cameron Kennedy would find me full time work (I had been temping for 8 months & was beginning to get rather disillusioned with contracting) and thanks to my consultant knowing his clients and his candidates so well I have been offered an excellent permanent position at the first company he arranged for me to see!
I think that sort of track record speaks for itself! Suffice to say, I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Cameron Kennedy to any friends looking for work and unfortunately I can't say the same of any of the other agents I have used".

"Cameron Kennedy is a breath of fresh air in an industry, which too often is associated with a lot of talk, little action and a supermarket approach to recruitment. My consultant at Cameron Kennedy was without doubt the most professional, friendly, informed and proactive out of all the consultants I met. He delivered a highly personalised service guiding me through every stage. He clearly had excellent connections amongst the Investment Banks, which often allowed me to leverage off his knowledge of who I was going to meet. In addition I was provided with value adding feedback after each stage and invaluable pointers on preparing for the next round. All in all, I believe I have established a great long-term relationship with Cameron Kennedy. They will be my first point of call in the future for any recruitment needs and I have already recommended them to friends. Truly excellent service".

"The initial interview that I had with you I found excellent as I felt that I could communicate with you easily on both a professional and personal level. This is very important to me when dealing with an agent. Also the level of feedback after I had attended my AMEC interview was good".

"The vacancies my consultant put me forward for were selected carefully and were very relevant, which has not always been the case with other recruitment agencies. I was briefed thoroughly on the roles I was going for and I found my ideal job after only two interviews. The service I received from Cameron Kennedy was friendly and second to none. I was never tempted to register with another agency and would recommend Cameron Kennedy to anyone who is looking for a new role".

They have found me several interesting and challenging positions in a variety of well known Financial Institutions. I have always found Cameron Kennedy very professional to deal with and valued their negotiating skills when dealing with prospective employers on my behalf. I would not hesitate in recommending Cameron Kennedy to my friends".

"I have been contracting in London’s financial services sector since 1995. Since first registering with Cameron Kennedy seven years ago I have not needed to use another agency. Cameron Kennedy has always offered excellent opportunities in financial roles paying top rates when and where I needed them. I have had the same contact at the agency over the last seven years and found the integrity and consistency of that refreshing".

"When I started job hunting I contacted the usual accountancy agencies and from most received a poor service - I was always chasing them, they would hassle me to attend interviews that were totally unsuitable and it was very hard to get feedback from them. I was impressed with the service Cameron Kennedy provided and I was particularly pleased with my consultant as I found her to be extremely helpful and easy to stay in contact with. She never tried to force me to go to job interviews and would always point out the good and bad parts of each prospective job, as well as keeping in touch regularly - I have recommended Cameron Kennedy to friends already and will continue to do so".

“I was immediately put forward for positions which were exactly what I was looking for and which matched my profile. Within a very short period I was offered a position with a leading company, which I accepted as it was the perfect move for my career and was exactly the type of job I had been looking for”.
