Fantastic experience

I had a fantastic interview with a wonderful lady, Kirsty White. She gave me great knowledge about what I'm applying for and she conducted the interview in the best and most sincere way and she was very polite and very thoughtful throughout the recruitment process and the Optime group is a fantastic recruitment project.

Dear Heathrow / Wilson James/ Optime…

Dear Heathrow / Wilson James/ Optime Group

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a pressing concern regarding the treatment of employees within our organisations.

Recently, I experienced an unforeseen delay returning from my break due to a lift issue, resulting in my return being approximately 10 minutes later than planned. Unfortunately, upon my return, I was met with unprofessional and disrespectful behavior from Marianne / Adam / Debbie

The treatment I received left me feeling undervalued and demoralized. It's crucial to recognize that each employee's dedication and commitment should not be overshadowed by isolated incidents. We are all valuable contributors to the success of this company and deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.

I urge the company to reflect on its values and ensure that all employees are treated fairly and with the respect they deserve. It's essential to foster a positive work environment where employees feel valued and appreciated for their contributions

I respectfully request that the company take immediate action to address this issue and implement measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Additionally, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this matter further to find a resolution and ensure that our workplace upholds the principles of fairness and respect for all employees.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and action on this important issue.

Sincerely,

May 14, 2024

Smooth Experience with Kirsty White

My experience with Kirsty White at Optime Crawley has been very pleasant and she made the whole experience effortless and very professional.
Kirsty was very helpful in answering all my queries and prompt response from the onset to the end thoroughly.

I cannot fault the entire recruitment process at all and would highly recommend Optime to anyone who is looking for a job.

My Experience

The experience as a whole has been easy, quick, friendly and extremely rewarding. Changing jobs for a lot of people can be extremely daunting and jumping into the unknown can be difficult but Danielle has made it extremely simple and any questions queries or problems have been dealt with professionally, quickly and accurately.

Lovely recruitment experience

I've loved dealing with Optime. Malgorzata is so friendly, understanding and sympathetic. Ultimately I did not proceed with the job I was in recruitment for because I was offered a full time job elsewhere. But Optime and Malgorzata were so helpful, they delayed my start so I could attend to personal matters and I've been offered nothing but congratulations on a new job.

If I ever need to apply for jobs outside of my industry again, you'll be my first port of call Malgorzata. Thank you so much
