“I’d be delighted to say how much I enjoyed worked through Intelligent People. I found their / your approach to be professional at all times and all of my enquiries & questions were dealt with quickly and efficiently. Perhaps it’s less print worthy to say it, however I should also add that it’s very common to find IT agencies and their staff dismissive and unwilling to talk if they consider you are not suitable for a position. Although you were kind enough to take my application seriously from the outset, it’s still refreshing to be dealt with politely and courtesy as I was by Intelligent People and namely by yourself. I would highly recommend Intelligent People to all other contractors.”Graham Drage, IT Contractor

"Having known, and worked with, one of the founders of Intelligent People for some time, I decided to use them when I needed to recruit a HR Business Partner. The brief was demanding, as I needed someone who not only had excellent HR Systems knowledge but who would also be Client Facing and fit into the rest of the team. Following an online and media advertising campaign I was swiftly presented with a shortlist of candidates, all of whom met my requirements, were correctly briefed and motivated by the opportunity - within two weeks I had selected my candidate of choice, who is now doing an excellent job for me. Intelligent People understood the role intimately from the start, were highly accurate in their assessment of not only my needs but, also, the candidate's strengths and weaknesses, and were pleasant and professional to deal with throughout."

"Having worked with one of the consultants at Intelligent People for several years they are now one of my first points of call for any recruitment needs we have. I am always told in advance whether they can help me or not - when they can I receive a first class service, when they can't I am referred by them to a specialist who can. Our relationship has been built on honesty and integrity and I intend to continue our relationship for the forseeable future." Martin Blomley, HR Director, Vega
"We have known the guys at Intelligent People for quite a few years but have not had an occasion to use their services until recently, when we were looking for a Business Development person to join our Executive Team. Although the brief we gave them was (in our opinion) almost impossible to fill, within a matter of days they came up with a short-list of suitable candidates and, after a couple of weeks of interviewing, we settled on one candidate as the best fit for our needs. The guys worked with us one-on-one to understand our exact needs, set up interviews and performed pre-interviews on our behalf, making the whole experience a good one for us. Not your typical recruitment consultants, something unique!" Brian Metters, Director, Accton Technology
