Shire healthcare services have been amazing in helping me find a job for my future. You get an agent who literally helps you every step of the way; it felt like all my questions were answeredand and all information was explained properly. Honestly, I couldn't be more thankful for the support and patience of the staff.

Tom has been amazing from start to finish helping me find my new job. Tom was brilliant with contacting me during convenient times for myself due to my current working hours. Tom kept me updated throughout the whole process and made me feel at ease prior to interviews by offering advice and useful information. Would highly recommend 🙂

Really great service. As a user looking for a specific role within the children’s care sector, I would wholeheartedly recommend Shire Health. Tom was informative, supportive and always at hand to answer any questions or concerns I had. I am very experienced at interviews and he offered his support and guidance without teaching me to suck eggs! He has matched me perfectly and as someone who has also had to employ and recruit in the past, he has took the hard work out of the job, which I’m sure the employer will be grateful for - as it’s always an expensive, timeous and sometimes arduous business recruiting staff. Thanks Tom and the team x

My experience with Shire, especially Tom, has been amazing. Cannot fault him at all. Very professional and helpful, from applying right through to helping once accepting the job. Tom has kept me up to date and even helped me with finding out the answers to questions I should have asked at interview but forgot!Really friendly and makes you feel valued. Highly highly recommend. If I could score more than 5 stars I would do!

Shire Healthcare Services was very instrumental in helping me get the job I really wanted from the initial contact to the service through the interview process up until my start date and even beyond. They've given me a really strong base of support and Lena in particular was my consultant who helped me through every single process that I needed to undertake whilst also reviewing and updating me on every aspect of my job application. It's been a really wonderful experience for me and I look forward to maintaining a very good relationship moving forward.
