  • "Higher Group are the best R2R’s in the UK. Switched on and very thorough."
  • "Very impressed by Josh and the service he offered. He was attentive, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the interview process."
  • "I had only just began my career search when I revived a message from Max. Max took time to understand every aspect of what I wanted in a job."
  • "I recently had the pleasure of working with Max to go for a job which seemed slightly out of reach. After consulting with Max and being given outstanding help and advice he quickly landed me in an interview and I secured the job."
  • "Working closely with higher group was an amazing, fast and easy process! I managed to get 3 interviews within my first week and have secured a job!!"

Cons:

  • "I’m a business owner, Higher Group approached me to help me hire good talent. Have several briefs and hours of my time. They proceeded to provide me with no quality candidates at all. Candidates we interviewed were not even briefed about my business."
  • "Really disappointed with the way I have been dealt with by one of their consultants, Fintan."
  • "Nothing personal to the company, but this company is like every other recruitment company but they move like sales people. They sell you a dream and line up interview for you and then when the outcome is unsuccessful they just text you the outcome. No actual professionalism, they are not genuine and are so willing to help you only because it will benefit then."

Communication and Support

Pros:

  • "He never keeps you in the dark, always provides great interview prep and is very honest throughout the process."
  • "Cameron was communicative and a pleasure to work with."

  • "The additional interview support has been a real help in supporting me to get into recruitment in such a fast turn around from my first call."
  • "Imogen provided exceptional service and went above and beyond my expectations. She not only focused on finding the right cultural fit and candidate but also provided valuable insights and was always willing to assist me with any questions or concerns I had."
  • "Jess was so helpful and professional from start to finish! She guided me through each stage of the interview process perfectly and made me feel so much more confident."
  • "Lewis Hanley - Recruiting Royalty. Lewis primarily works the graduate market but he’s also fantastic at helping experienced recruiters find their next move."
  • "The team were excellent. I spoke to Lewis in regards to what I was looking for and he went above and beyond to make things happen!"

Cons:

  • "It continues. After weeks of poor candidates their head of legal emailed us to cancel our terms of business. We had no phone call or email to explain why, just a cancellation email from someone I’ve never met."
  • "Whilst I appreciate I wasn't successful and the company decided not to pursue my application, I am disgusted that I have been treated this way by Fintan, I find it unprofessional and uncourteous."
  • "If your not successful for the position they ghost you after selling a dream from the beginning. Also shout out to Callum for being a coward and not providing any feedback as you said you would and just texting me (very professional)."
