Very helpful and lovely company to work with!

Pear tree were extremely helpful with securing and helping with my new role in ald, the communication was consistent and informative along the way and the staff were very friendly and made a difficult time transitioning from being made redundant very drastically to securing a role and being paid on time every week!

Highly Recommended

The team at Pear Tree was amazing in helping me secure my new role. They provided regular updates, and reassurances and were very easy to communicate with. Everyone I spoke to was also very personable which made the generally stressful job-hunting experience much more relaxing and easier to manage. Thanks again Pear Tree Recruitment.

Don't waste your time if you don't speak english as mother language

I have contacted 2 times by phone by different members about, they found my cv on line. I am so skilled candidate but sadly when i have called back to the office despite they have positions suitable for me, never have the opportunity to send me for interview or even offer to do registration process with the agency.
I am working at administration position/customer service for last 14 years in Uk. I think they expect to hire local candidates not foreign people with non british accent english. It is second time it happen to me with this agency. It was my last with them. I have contacted many times for local and friendly foreigners agency. Not more this disrespectful agency like this.

I was sorry to read your review and I want to assure you that I’ve looked into this. We pride ourselves on the work we do with our clients to create opportunities for language speakers (which is an amazing skill to have in itself, and one that a lot of our clients look for in order to service their own diverse customer bases). We’ve filled plenty of jobs in recent months with candidates where English isn’t their first language – both within customer service and administration. I can only apologise that we contacted you twice and didn’t feel your experience was right. Unfortunately, we can’t help everyone but I do wish you all the best in your job search.

Gemma and the team did a fantastic job…

Gemma and the team did a fantastic job keeping me informed throughout the application process as well as proving support and advice throughout. Extremely professional, honest and helpful recruitment company! I am now enjoying a new role identified by Pear Tree.

Professional, friendly & timely interaction

Both Jo and Gemma have been super-helpful in liaising with myself and their client in order to ensure that the fit is great for both parties. They interact with high integrity and with respect for the candidate as an individual, as well as for their client. Although HR recruitment is not their usual field, I would have no hesitation in utilising them for further HR recruitment.

Friendly, communicative and super helpful!

Couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful and always so communicative. Found me a job within days, set it all up etc. When I was poorly, they phoned to check I was okay. Just went above and beyond. So friendly, especially compared to other recruitments agencies I have been with. Also, everything is done online in terms of pay etc through an app which makes it super easy too!

Fantastic Recruitment Experience

I cannot recommend Pear Tree Recruitment highly enough in particular Gemma. Throughout the whole, what turned out to be a relatively lengthy recruitment process, Gemma was pro-active, supportive, friendly and approachable. She always ensured I was kept up to date with updates and progress, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for all your help and support.

Hired Within Two Weeks.

Was contacted by Peartree recruitment about multiple job offers that may suit my skills/abilities, after sending my CV, plus a short phone registration. I had an interview for a customer service role. Given helpful advice, as well as a pre-interview phone call for any last-minute tips or questions. I received a job offer from my first choice job through Peartree.
