Client Testimonials

Hi Denise,
“I remarked to my colleague that your approach and professionalism when we first met, stood out. You wanted to understand our needs at the level of my dept as well as the company's. You sent us first rate candidates and the one selected hit the floor running and has already proved her worth in her first few weeks with us. You recognise the need of the company and you select the placement carefully. It does not stop there either, once placement made you call to check all is OK - excellent & well thought out service”.
Carole Forde – Pearson Education

“DNA provides a service in a way that shows they care about our business. This is quite different to some agencies who treat clients like they are a part of their ‘production line’”.

“ DNA offers an unusual, but very welcome, benefit that they will replace a candidate if it doesn’t work out. This is a great way to underwrite the risk of the unknown”.

“ DNA offers help beyond the core service, including deploying our tests for us before interview”.
Andrew Tharme – MD The Oxford Research Agency

“Despite 40 applications to the first advert placed in the Oxford times and 23 to the second and strong looking shortlists - 2 months later and we still had no new appointment and had spent £2000.00 in costs. I approached two local employment agencies one small and one much larger. Within a week DNA Appointments had not only interviewed me at my office they had found three suitable candidates, all with different strengths, had pre assessed them and recommended them to me for interview. I could have chosen any of the three.

By the time I had appointed our chosen candidate from DNA Appointments - the second Agency had managed a phone call to me to discuss the job and were advising me that I should hear from them shortly! This experience totally changed my view of using an Agency and our next appointments will start with DNA Appointments as our chosen partners in recruiting - the savings in time and the quality of the candidates make the fee for their services very good value”.

Hi Duncan,
Just wanted to say many thanks for the card and i-tunes voucher it was a brilliant start to the day. The job is going as well as it can after one day, answered a few phone calls and began to get to grips with their various systems etc. I think I'm definitely going to enjoy it though so many thanks once more!

Hi Denise,
Just to say thank you for our meeting today and giving me hope for the future when I was beginning to feel down about being employable at my age. You have made me focus again and once you showed me my skills you made me feel that I was at last worth something. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Dear Duncan,
I really thought I was unemployable after many months of doing the agency route in the Oxford area I was feeling very deflated. When you contacted me and arranged a meeting I was a little nervous and didn’t know what to expect but you explained everything really well. Within a few days you called me and that’s when the interviews all started, I can honestly say that after 8 months in this job I have never looked back. Just wanted to let you know and say thanks again.

DNA Appointments is a fantastic agency, they go much further than any other recruitment agency to ensure that your needs are met. DNA provides you with key interview skills and from the beginning you are kept constantly updated with new positions. DNA does so much more than find a job that suits you but will go out their way to make sure you land the position you want. And once you've been placed DNA continue to keep in contact and show an interest in your new job so as to make sure that you are happy. I would not hesitate to recommend DNA to anyone seeking a job.
