Major Recruitment Anmeldelser 

Absolutely outstanding experience with Lou from start to finish.
Louise has been nothing short of incredible throughout my entire recruitment journey. From our very first conversation, she filled me with confidence and positivity, taking the time to truly get to know me, my experience, my goals, and what really matters to me in a role.

What really stood out was how thoughtfully she prepared me for each stage of the process. Her interview tips were insightful, tailored, and genuinely made a difference to how I presented myself. She made me feel supported every step of the way.

It has genuinely been the best recruitment experience I’ve ever had. Louise is not only brilliant at what she does, she’s also a lovely person with an incredibly approachable and uplifting style. A fabulous woman with a fabulous approach, and genuinely impossible not to like.

Ashleigh is a credit to your company. She is very professional and thoughtful. The process was quick, clear and calm communication. They have secured a permanent position for me. Huge thank you to Ashleigh and the whole Major Recruitment team 🙏🏽 I would highly recommend Major Recruitment any day. Thanks Walter 😊

Excellent customer service. I would definitely recommend Major Recruitment.

She was very good at her job share the work out fair and keeps you in formed

Great agency. Gary set me up with an ongoing job at a good company in Heywood. My experience has been great with the agency.

I was looking for work neee Christmas time and it failed but Gary from the agency didn’t give up till he found me one. Got me straight into a great company in the matter of hours and I’ve been there since. Great company and always on hand and literally from my own experience they went above and beyond to help sort things out for me. Couldn’t rate more highly. Thank you guys

I’m working as a temporary worker and it’s a great environment and nice friendly people.

For several weeks now, they have not been able to pay the correct rate for overtime and outstanding vacation, I DO NOT RECOMMEND

Very good service Karina lovely keeps you updated with everything would highly recommend well looked after very good company 😀
Thank you

Worked as a temporary driver for Major Recruitment for 4 months, nice friendly people to work for, gave me plenty of shifts and was paid promptly. The experience led to me to being offered a full time role at Sainsburys where I am now. Happy to recommend, many thanks and good luck.

I have been assisted by "Michelle Coulson of the Newcastle Branch" in being placed in a Temporary position.

She has kept me updated in respect to the application.

This is one of the first agencies which has provided feedback.

Feedback whether positive or negative, really helps when you are applying for numerous positions.

Having worked for this agency for around 14 weeks I have nothing but good to say.
Anything I asked for in terms of information and support I always got.
Clear and prompt calls and messages when required.
Since starting work as a driver I have not been out of work since starting and have now been taken on full time, so a huge thanks to the Castle Donington/Derby teams
Would have no problem recommending Major at all and will use again in future if needed
Thankyou

Avoid, they are the worst agency I have had to deal with, message them multiple times and just ignored, waste of time

Update Newton Aycliffe

Update, what a complete lie I have never spoke on the phone and send me the abusive emails because there is none
And hard to get hold of yous never reply to my emails and never get phone calls, i will be contacting E.A.S after these lies

Disgusting agency who haven’t paid for a shift after still waiting for over a month with continuous lies, expect free slave labour, some staff have a terrible confrontational phone manner and stinking attitude. Don’t waste your time.

I tried to find out how to make a complaint about one of their recruiters through the proper channels by both checking their website and emailing their Huddersfield office (as I believe this is where the Directors of the business are registered), but there was no indication of how to do this and the Huddersfield office never replied.

Hi John,

Is the problem with the Huddersfield office? Any issue with an employee should be made to the Branch Manager of the branch you are dealing with. If you give us the branch, we can give you the telephone number and name of who you need to speak to, as we obviously would like to solve this for you.

I don't know because the recruiter does not make mention of which office they are working out of when you read their emails, e.g. in a signature block for example.

Darren at the Oldbury branch was excellent very professional and very good at his job. A very good experience

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Major Recruitment Company. From start to finish, their professionalism, dedication, and support were exceptional, helping me secure a fantastic job as a Business Applications Support Administrator.
From the initial contact, my recruiter Caroline Rogers took the time to discuss my skills, experiences, and preferences in detail, ensuring they matched with the company’s requirement. Her attention to detail and personalized approach made me feel valued and understood.
Throughout the job recruiting process, Caroline Rogers provided consistent communication and valuable advice. She kept me informed about the job and prepared me for the interview, with helpful tips, and offered constructive feedback after the interview. Her encouragement and guidance were instrumental in boosting my confidence and helping me present myself effectively to my employer.
The Major Recruitment network and connections within the Recruiting industries are impressive. Caroline was able to quickly arrange interview. I am now happily employed with the company, where I can continue to develop my skills.
I highly recommend Major Recruitment to anyone seeking employment. Their expertise, professionalism, and unwavering support for getting a job was a good experience. Thank you, Major Recruitment, Caroline Rogers and the entire team at Major Recruitment, for helping me find a rewarding position and for being such a reliable partner in my career journey.

I was employed for just shy of 4 months with Major Recruitment, before I was taken on permanently by the company I was placed with.

I will say that Major were very quick to place me with my employer, but this is about the only good thing I can say about them.

This company will keep everything from you that they think they can get away with. My colleagues and I were not paid for inductions that we were supposed to be and were only paid once each of us raised this with our local representatives, even though these inductions were taken at the same time, only those who complained individually ever received their pay. This company is renowned in my workplace for incorrect payslips, holiday pay, and terrible responsiveness.

My main concern is the way they have handled holiday pay owed to me and my colleagues upon leaving the company. I have so far waited 45 days to receive the full amount owed to me, and while I have been very patient, I have been consistently ignored and strung along this whole time. I have also independently reached out to their head office to enquire about how they calculate holiday pay, a request which has also been ignored.

This company underpays its staff, and then ignores them in the hopes they will simply go away. Their practices are entirely without transparency and contact details for anyone of seniority is impossible to find, even the telephone number listed for their head office is the one for the local branch next door, and when specifically asked for a direct number for head office, this cannot be supplied.

Major will find you a job if they say they will, of that I have no doubt, but be very careful about receiving what you’re owed when you leave because it probably won’t happen.

I would not work for Major again, and unless you are absolutely desperate, I wouldn’t recommend you do either.

I have no words on how this agency and its workers have been ignoring me for over 4 months now. Last time they responded to my message was almost a month ago and I wrote them 3 since then (yesterday, 2 weeks ago and 4 weeks ago) - what did I get back? Nothing, silence.
EDIT to a reply:
As no one replied to my e-mail sent a week before to “admin”, on 15th March I decided I will send it again, but this time to 17 of your addresses, only of which just one responded - and it was Wakefield.
EDIT2:
E-mail sent. :)
EDIT3:
Thank you, but sadly, nobody has contacted me.
EDIT4:
No problem, I'll be waiting for the call. Thank you.
EDIT5:
I was waiting over the weekend and today, but still nothing.
EDIT6:
Sadly, five days later, still quiet.
Anyways, I just sent you an e-mail, so I’d appreciate if you could check it and respond. Thank you.
EDIT7:
Hi again, it's been almost 3 weeks since my last message and nobody has contacted me still from Major Recruitment. That's why I decided I will make one last edit for this review and add some details to it.
At the end of last year I should've received a refund of contributions I made to Pension. Major Recruitment was supposed to refund me that money till the end of December.. Sadly, it's been over 5 months and I'm still being ignored by them and haven't seen the money - even though Pension provider has refunded that money to them on 1st February (agency was supposed to refund me and then get the refund to cover it from pension provider).
They probably didn't know I will get to know about it because in the meantime they even lied about me not being eligible for it..
