Testimonials

Giving credit where it's due. We've navigated through various recruitment agencies since the inception of userled, encountering scams, dishonesty, and overall disappointment. However, our recent collaboration with Understanding Recruitment has been a game-changer. These folks truly understand the intricacies of our needs. They've not only assisted us in securing top-tier engineers but have also restored my faith in the recruitment industry. As founders, we know the challenges of attracting top talent, especially when your brand is still establishing itself and you product doesn't necessarily resonate with a technical audience. Leo Sparkes and the team have gone above and beyond, providing unwavering support throughout, resulting in 3 engineering hires in just 2 months. London-based startups, don't hesitate to connect with them.
Yann Sarfati Co-Founder & CEO of Userled
Working at a start up getting the right people onboard is an absolute must! We recently advertised for a full stack developer and found that all the agencies we went to initially were just throwing CVs at us without taking time to understand us as a business. When I finally arrived at Understanding Recruitment they really went above and beyond to get to the bottom of what we wanted not just with regards to the technical skillset but also being mindful of culture and how the potential candidate would fit into the company. This was evident in that we interviewed almost all the candidates they connected us with and ended up making offers to three of them. It's clear that Understanding Recruitment have their process and procedures right from the bottom up allowing their consultants to meet the demands of their clients.

During what has felt like a challenging job market, Leo was very accommodating and helped me to feel like more than just another candidate. He came across as very knowledgeable and provided me with the kind of interview prep that sets candidates up for success. I would definitely work with Leo again in the future for any JS/TS opportunities I might look to pursue

I had the privilege of collaborating with Leo. Their sector knowledge and knack for aligning candidates with fitting roles led to a successful job hunt. From the outset, they exhibited professionalism and commitment. They invested time to comprehend my skills and career objectives, making me feel appreciated. Their efficiency was remarkable. They swiftly pinpointed potential roles that matched my goals and coordinated interviews. They also offered invaluable advice for my preparation. What distinguishes Leo is their authentic concern for candidates. They consistently provided updates and feedback, which I valued. I am thankful for their assistance and strongly endorse their services to anyone exploring opportunities in the tech industry. Their expertise and dedication are praiseworthy.
