'Thank you for your support and professionalism through my recent successful application for the role of Head of HR at AXA Technology Services UK.
From the initial screening stages to the final interview stages in Paris I was kept well briefed and informed by you and your team. There were no points where I needed to chase and you kept regular checks with me in a timely way.
I was also pleased with the organisational briefings I was given which allowed me to prepare in the appropriate way.
Thanks again for the support.'
Lance Williams, VP HR BT Global Solutions June 2006
'We retained Firstperson to help us find a UK Head of HR and Communications. They were involved at the onset recommending an appropriate solution on how we could attract the best calibre of person and then putting together a robust selection process. I found them to be very knowledgeable in the HR executive market.
They worked hard and provided an in-depth shortlist, in terms of experience and also in terms of personality/temper/psychological traits. This means that your selection was based on an excellent assessment done with an open mind and gave us confidence that we had covered the market place. We have recruited a very successful candidate. I would be happy to use Firstperson for further executive recruitment.’
