One Person, Two Perspectives: A Client and Candidate Experience with VWA

We are always grateful to those we work with who take the time to share their experience, particularly when they can offer insight from both sides of the hiring process. In this testimonial, one of our clients, a Group HR Business Partner at Keller Group plc reflects on their experience of working with VWA as both a client and a candidate, offering a thoughtful perspective on what makes a recruitment partnership truly effective.

“I was first introduced to VWA while working at a company that was already using their services alongside another agency. What immediately stood out to me was the calibre of candidates VWA presented compared to the other agency we were using at the time. The quality, relevance and overall fit of the candidates were noticeably stronger, and it quickly became clear that they truly understood both the brief and the business.

Since then, I have worked with VWA for both temporary and permanent recruitment, and I have also experienced their service from the candidate side. As a client, I have always found them to be professional, responsive and highly efficient, particularly when supporting urgent requirements at short notice. They consistently deliver without compromising on quality.

When I was a candidate with VWA, the experience was entirely consistent with what I had experienced as a recruiter. The team were friendly, efficient and informative throughout the process. I particularly valued how well they matched me to clients, not just in terms of skills, but also cultural fit. Their communication was clear and supportive at every stage.

VWA’s approach to supporting both clients and candidates is thoughtful and relationship driven. They take the time to understand culture as well as capability, which results in strong, lasting placements. When I returned to hiring and needed recruitment support again, choosing to work with VWA was an easy decision due to their access to high quality candidates and their proven ability to match both skills and team culture effectively.

I would recommend VWA wholeheartedly to other businesses and professionals. They are reliable, professional and genuinely invested in achieving the right outcome for everyone involved.”
