TESTIMONIALS

Elaine is one of the most professional, reliable and honest recruiters I have met to date. When she recruited for my role at Sasol Oil, she made sure that all questions were answered, provided me sufficient information to prepare myself not only for the new role, but also the challenges when leaving the employer at the time. She is an honest businessperson that really looked after the best interest of her candidates. Elaine has a great personality and she is easy to get along.

It’s never about the next commission that may come her way but rather about making sure that she looks out for her client’s interests and takes personal time to ensure her clients are happy.

Elaine is a very detailed person when coming to matters of recruitment. She interviewed extensively for a position at AngloGold Ashanti, and I could tell that the screening was thorough, and the best candidate was her goal. I am actually impressed also with the regular updates you receive as a candidate after they have made contact with you. I would certainly recommend her to recruit for any top job.
