We had specific criteria for our ideal candidate and in the past had used various methods to recruit; online advertising, agencies, word of mouth but none had quite been right.  So after being recommended to TMS Search & Selection we felt reassured and happy to engage them.  Recruiting people for your business is a really important job and can be littered with pitfalls, but thanks to TMS Search & Selection we ended up with a great result.
