Workinprogress Reviews

We used Emma to recruitment an Office Manager to join our team of 10 She dealt with the end-to-end process It started with meeting both the partners and staff to get to know us and how we work She really understood our needs and how the new person would fit in to our team With over 80 applicants having Emma filter the CVs do screening interviews set up and run assessment days arrange 2nd interviews and provide feedback to applicants was invaluable We ended up with 3 very strong applicants which was a great position to be in This job role is so important for our business going forward that we really needed to put the time and effort in Contracting this out to Emma was a great decision We cannot imagine recruiting any other way in future I would and do recommend her to everyone

I wouldn t hesitate to recommend Work In Progress to anybody looking for help with HR Emma is calm considered and tactful and was able to help the company I work for recruit a new member of office staff within a few weeks We would have struggled to find the time to do it in-house and Emma was much more knowledgeable about the best places to advertise the role She also assisted with and led the interview process which we were very happy with All in all it was a potentially difficult experience made stress-free and straightforward by Emma

We used Emma at Work In Progress for the first time this year and wouldn t hesitate to do so again She made what can be a difficult process extremely easy for us The whole experience was excellent - we couldn t recommend her enough

Honest knowledgeable and pragmatic Emma is an asset

Emma kept me informed throughout the process and even sent words of encouragement before the interviews I recommend Emma to anyone wanting a Professional service
