GCA Recruitment Ltd

I've been dealing with Jake Croft for several months now both as a candidate for a role which he contacted me for and also as a manager I've been recruiting for staff for in the role he originally placed me for. Jake contacted me in August 2019 about a role he felt I would be a good fit for, I found his telephone manner polite, professional, friendly and very engaging.

After finding out my availability and discussing the role and my suitability for it and confirming my interest in it we agreed on next steps and further communication. Jake kept me up to date at all stages, liaised with the prospective employer when I disappeared off for 2 weeks holiday when they were interviewing and kept the opportunity "live" for me.

At the interview stage Jake was very quick to get back to me with news of how I was progressing and when he phone to tell me I had been successful in my application he was genuinely and sincerely pleased in his congratulations. Upon commencement in my new role I received a welcome pack from Jake. As a department manager with the company Jake placed me with we've had to recruit new staff as we're enjoying a period of growth, we tasked Jake with finding potential candidates for 1st, 2nd and 3rd support engineers and I'm impressed with the people he's been sending us.

Our requirement is very specific and Jake has delivered, he's vetted the CVs and we're able to interview all the applicants put forward to us, he's saved us a tremendous amount of time, we've taken staff on and they are excellent. I have a great deal of trust and faith in Jake. Jake is an exceptional person to deal with on both sides of the recruitment process and is an absolute credit to his employer. I really cannot commend him highly enough.

Outstanding experience with eSift! Jake contacted me regarding a role which is now my full time job and he was a pleasure to work/ communicate with. He always updated me on his contact with the company I was interviewing with, he genuinely seems to care about placing the right people in the right roles. Even called me once my employment had started to check it was all going well.cannot fault Jake, what an asset he is to eSift. Thank you for the continuous contact, efficiency and professionalism at all times.

Jake handled my onboarding into a new role with a major blue chip company and done a sterling job. Frequent updates, ability to build rapport fast and kept open and honest dialogue. Best ever recruitment agency experience to date! Keep it up eSift - best in class!

Awesome experience, Louise Miles first contacted me about the opening, she followed through the process with email and telephones updates on tests, interviews and finally the good news about my offer, I am really pleased about my experience at eSift I couldn't ask for more.

Spoke with Jake Croft who managed to get me settled into a managed IT service provider and sorted out the interviews quickly and efficiently after our first phone call. I was a bit standoff at first with recruiters due to my past experience with them but Jake took away that anxiety with his friendly, likeable approach. He gave me constant feedback, updates and even when I started the workplace he gave me a call to see how I was getting on and would always check up weeks after starting the company which was great.

Couldn't recommend Jake enough, he went above and beyond in every aspects and is easily the best recruiter I've come across since leaving University earlier this year. Great mix of personality and professionalism.
