Its always a difficult balance in the recruitment industry as the client is paying you and the candidate is mostly incidental and there you are, as the agent, stuck in the middle between the unrealistic expectations of both parties, however, Neil managed to do this. Highly communicative, supportive and with a great deal of integrity. For Neil, it seems to be about relationship building and matching…quality versus quantity or the perfect candidate for the perfect opportunity. I’ve been a candidate and in the future, I will definitely be a client as well as soon as the first opportunity arises”
