Pros
I've worked for many companies as a career temp in previous years with many Recruitment Agencies across City and Central London and can hands down say through genuine personal experience, that Huntress Aldwych (Head Office) and the business as a whole, is not only an excellent recruitment agency with their candidate and clients best interests, but also as an employer with their employees best interests also. This is very hard to come by in this day and age, especially within the recruitment sector. Huntress takes pride in customer service, listens to clients and candidate needs, as well as regular feedback taken from employees and is always looking at ways in which it can improve. The training and induction you receive, no matter your role in the business is brilliant and a very welcome introduction to the business and sector. You are 100% supported in your development within the business and your needs are always listened to through regular reviews. If progression is something you desire, Huntress is very clear on the routes you can take within the business and the level of training provided is excellent for you to make the jump. The company culture is well balanced and a happy environment to work within. Great facilities, building location (Aldwych branch) and very friendly too. The board of Directors/Senior Management and CEO are also very welcoming, friendly and approachable and this is something I believe is so important to enforce team work across the branch and business. Not only has Huntress so far helped develop me professionally and in ways I didn't think were possible, but also personally and for that I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with such a wonderful company.
Cons
There aren't many cons if i'm completely honest, however to remain completely transparent the work/life balance can sometimes be slightly off but this is more so in the smaller specialist teams and isn't always a consistent occurrence. However, this is not expected of you but more so something you come to happily except when you see the rewards of all your hard work paying off. Like anything in life, what you put in is what you get out!
