Messly is a great platform
Messly is a great platform, because you are able to see multiple jobs from multiple recruiters. I found a good recruiter through them. I'm still learning about the features it has to offer and highly recommend it to fellow colleagues.

Helpful launch pad for locums
Messly was an excellent way to connect with agencies who offered the types of work I was looking for. Their OneRef system is a very easy and convenient way to collect references, which avoids the need for your referees to fill out multiple forms for different agencies. The app itself can be quite glitchy, but it does the job. The jobs advertised are more "examples" rather than live jobs, and as such don't give any specifics about dates, shift patterns, and contract lengths - you seem to need to register with agencies if you want up-to-date and accurate lists of what they have available. Overall a really useful service and would recommend it to all new locums.

Very Good!
Messly is an excellent service. I am particularly grateful for their detailed blogs and tips on how to get setup as a locum. They were incredibly informative and useful and I referred to them often. Messly helped to link me up with HCL Doctors and Alisha my recruitment consultant who has done an excellent job and found me lots of good work in London at a great rate.

I found Messly very simple to use
I found Messly very simple to use. For me the highlights were that all my documents could be in one place so I wasn't having to repeat what can be a laborious process with each agency that I applied to. I also appreciated that the agencies come to you, rather than having to search yourself. The whole process was more streamlined.

Messly is a brilliant app. A very user friendly interface with frequent support from the Messly team to give us tips and recommendations to contact with locum agencies. All I had to do was fill in my details and upload my documents and locum agencies showed interest in my application. I could easily arrange appointments with the locum agencies to ensure compliance.
