Give a Grad a Go Avis 362

Catherine is a truly outstanding recruiter who went above and beyond to support me through the application process. Catherine ensured I was well equipped and prepared throughout the stages as well as going the extra mile to ensure I wasn’t nervous or anything. Catherine is highly organized, professional and not a moment will pass where you feel alone in the process. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for recruiting services.

Give a Grad a Go has been the most helpful, refreshing and responsive recruitment service I have ever used. I had the pleasure of communicating with Iz and Princess during my job search who were super supportive and reassuring throughout the process. I would highly recommend the team if you are looking for new and exciting grad job opportunities!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Izzy from Give A Grad A Go and I have to say, she was an absolute rockstar. From start to finish, Izzy was incredibly personal, human and attentive throughout the recruitment process. She always kept me updated and went above and beyond to ensure that I was fully prepared for the interview and had all the information I needed. I truly felt like she had my best interests at heart and was genuinely invested in my success. I have never had such a positive experience with a recruitment company before and I would highly recommend Give A Grad A Go to anyone looking for a job. Thank you so much, Izzy and the Give A Grad A Go team, for your amazing work!

GAGAGO’s rep Sam was very helpful throughout the entire interview process and actively checked in. Would strongly recommend.

I worked with Eva and Sam and honestly, it was nothing but a pleasant experience! Not only did they help me prepare (even last minute before the interview) but also they were really respectful of my time and my effort. They made sure to follow up on every part of the process, they asked if I have questions and actually replied to my emails within reasonable time which is really crucial when you are applying to multiple roles. There was no single time I got very stressed in the process as they made sure to communicate everything with me. I really appreciate their help.

Because of the incredible experience I have received from GAGAGO, I wish to praise the company and one staff in particular:
When it comes to efficiency, personality, and motivation, Catherine Watkins deserves special mention, praise and admiration. Recruitment can be a daunting and nerve-wracking process for both parties. Prepping for interviews can be overwhelming, but Cat not only has that savoir-faire with regard to preparation, she also possesses a key element of efficient recruitment: an effervescent and vivid love of matching vocation with personality. Not only has she supported me during the process, she has also diligently served as a counsellor in times when doubt would cloud my judgment and battle with reason. As such, Cat has mastered the art of combining the interpersonal with the professional which is what makes her an incredible recruiter as well as a wonderful individual. GAGAGO is incredibly lucky to count her on its staff.

After having used recruiters in the past with some negative experiences, I honestly couldn't recommend give a grad ago enough. Not only do they have the best opportunities, but the team is incredibly supportive and attentive. I had the absolute pleasure of working with both Becky and Sam who were not just incredible professionals, but great people. If you are a recent graduate or someone early in your career, this is definitely the place for you.

I signed up for Give a Grad a Go and immediately applied for a few jobs (essential as this speeds up all processes) and was quickly contacted by three members (Barney, Helen, and Lottie) to describe various roles they thought I'd be suitable for. All three of them secured interviews for me, and once this was organised they each emailed me with really helpful interview tips with question prompts.
Prior to the initial interviews, and each interview stage thereafter, they would call me and offer advice to ensure the interviews went well, and also to check whether or not I was still interested in the roles.
Within two weeks I have secured a permanent role, with especial help from Barney Brooker!
Can't recommend Give a grad a go enough. I had a really excellent experience with every member I was in contact with, and they go beyond what is required to help people secure their ideal jobs.

I turned 30 last year and decided to retrain to pursue a career change into web development. I signed up to Give a Grad and met Tyler who helped onboard me. Tyler was super thoughtful & efficient and he gave me a low-down on how things worked. Within weeks Joe called me and recommended a suitable role he thought i'd be a good fit for.

I was hesitant at first about the role as the company were asking for a lot of skills but, together with Joe's expert knowledge of the client and some kind reassurance to quash my self-doubt, we went for it.

I was invited for three separate interviews and was offered the role! The company was perfectly suited to me, my ambitions, my personality and the way I enjoy working so, I'm over the moon.

Joe played a key role in helping me along the way. He was kind, thoughtful, encouraging and so helpful, I can't thank him enough. At every step Joe was on the phone wishing me luck, giving me genuinely helpful insight and candid advice for each step.

Prior to retraining I had worked for lots of companies in relatively senior roles and I have never had such a genuine and positive experience in a recruitment process. Joe is a real pro at his craft and is a testament to Give a Grad a Go. Thanks Joe!

I wanted to give a fantastic review to Lottie at GAGAO. She kept me well informed, motivated and positive throughout the entire interview process. From daily check ins, thorough email summaries and potential questions I was throughly prepared for each step in the process which allowed me to excel. This has undoubtably been the best recruitment process I have had and it is all down to Lottie. Highly highly recommend if you need to progress to the next stage in your career.

I am really impressed with the service provided by Give A Grad A Go. Of all the recruitment services and sites I signed up to in my post-degree job search, I found them to be the most involved, helpful and relevant in aiding my job search.

My recruiter Sam Hickson was incredibly helpful and involved in my interview process for a software developer role at a thriving startup in London. He was open and helpful with advice throughout all three interviews, and very fast at setting up meetings and providing information.

After a expedient but not rushed series of interviews, I was able to secure the job offer which provided a competitive salary and fantastic benefits, with work arrangements perfectly suited to my position as a recent graduate.

I can highly recommend this recruitment service to any recent graduate who is struggling with other recruitment options, where every "entry level" role seems to need 5+ years of experience.

Give A Grad A Go actually does what they say they do, and they do it well.

Sam Hickson was really great to work with, he called within a few days of registering on the site, and about a week later he landed me a job as a junior developer.

Absolutely wonderful agency. Cat was very attentive and efficient and took all of my worries seriously, I was in and out in less than a month after struggling with other agencies for almost half a year. Absolutely lovely to work with.

Absolutely brilliant recruitment agency! I was only registered with them for about a week or so before agent got in touch with me about a role he thought I'd be a great fit for - a couple of weeks later, I landed the job! Cannot stress highly enough how great GAGAGO were. He made the whole process incredibly straightforward, listened to my needs/wants from a new role, gave me brilliant interview preparation material and was great at checking in one me and keeping me in the loop. Would recommend GAGAGO to anyone - not necessarily graduates, but also those looking to start a new career!

Had such a positive experience with Eva, she was super attentive and got me my dream job! Would recommend give a grad a go for anyone looking for a new career.

I was approached by this recruitment agency several times. The first time I was pushed to interview for a business development cold calling job. With 10+ years professional experience and account manager experience, I made this clear to the team that I do not want to go back to cold calling and that I am looking for a senior account manager / director role. The second time I heard from them I spoke with Pheobe and Christine. It looked like they had the perfect role for me, an account manager role at an AI tech firm with commission, a high basic salary and managing existing clients. I was really excited and went through with the interview however the CTO I interviewed with kept referencing back to prospecting and even mentioned that I would hand customers over to the account managers? Huh, I thought, I've been sent a job spec that I am going for the account manager role! Before I could question this, he had to leave. I spoke to Phoebe about this as I was not suspicious that I didn't actually interview for the role that was positioned and reality, I have just wasted my precious time interviewing for another cold calling job, when I had been sold a dream of an Account Manager role.
Christine called me back and double checked this when I questioned it, she mentioned that the CEO was mentioning an AM role but somewhere along the way wires were crossed and they're actually looking for an account executive role and its a 360 role with cold calling. Oh and the basic salary was poor but and no where near what was shared with me. Safe to say I was furious as it wasn't my problem that they miscommunicated. The bottom line is that they presented an account manager role with a certain pay package and had me interview for a completely different role. I fed back that this was extremely unprofessional, misleading and all they did was waste my time.

Have applied through them for several positions and have been ghosted/rejected with zero useful feedback. The first time I was contacted by a Manager who was quite keen on forwarding my application, once I did I never heard back from him, even after following up multiple times. I applied several times after that, even before they revamped their website, and never even got rejection emails. I have now decided to go back and apply for one more position with their revamped website and again a couple of weeks have passed with no response. It is discouraging to see so many non-responses, and to not even once know what you have done wrong.

I am so so impressed with the work Saira has done for me at Give A Grad A Go. From start to finish she has been encouraging, supportive, and offered plenty of useful advice regarding interview prep. Within a week she helped me secure an amazing job, and I could not be more pleased! Totally recommend Saira if you are searching for your next role.

Joe at Give A Grad A Go has been very helpful and supportive throughout the entire recruitment process. He kept me updated with progress on the application and responded quickly to any queries. Very pleased and would definitely recommend!

I am so grateful for coming across this company! They are very proactive and prepare you thoroughly for interviews. I want to say a huge thank you to Saira in particular, who has been incredibly supportive and encouraging throughout. She responded to all my queries quickly and checked-in regularly to make sure I was prepared.
Highly recommend working with her and with Give A Grad A Go!
