Highly Recommend

I had an outstanding experience working with Amber as my recruiter. From the very beginning, she was professional, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right opportunity. She took the time to understand my skills, goals, and what I was looking for in my next role, which made the whole process feel tailored and personal.

Communication was excellent throughout — Amber kept me informed at every stage, and any questions I had were answered quickly and clearly. Her guidance and encouragement really helped boost my confidence during interviews, and her insight into the company and role was invaluable.

Thanks to Amber’s dedication and expertise, I’ve secured a position that I’m truly excited about and that aligns perfectly with my career goals. I couldn’t be more grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for their next opportunity.

Thank you Amber ! ⭐️

I can’t recommend Amber highly enough

I can’t recommend Amber highly enough. From the very first conversation, she really took the time to understand what I was looking for—not just in terms of role, but also culture, growth, and long-term fit.

Amber was incredibly supportive and communicative throughout the entire process, keeping me updated at every stage and always making sure I felt prepared and confident. Her insight into the company and interview process made a huge difference, and I genuinely felt like she was rooting for me the whole time.

Thanks to Amber’s guidance and dedication, I’ve landed a role that I’m truly excited about. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in your success, you won’t find better.

Thank you again for everything, Amber—you’ve made a lasting impact on my career!

Just read below..

We were sent a load of phone numbers to begin with and no one answered the phone and one chap didnt turn up to his interview, so we wanted to dis-instruct this agency but then they became pushy and said we had agreed to their terms and conditions. They sent us a candidate and emailed us to say he had the correct driving licence and operator certificates and they would forward copies to us which they never did. The candidate turned out to be an alcholic and after considerable pressure from our insurance company the new recruit admitted he had no driving licence and had been driving our kit around on the roads illegally. We sacked the man and asked AGRIR for a refund they told us we were out of refund time. We asked for £6500 refund of finders fee and they said they would no longer communicate with us except through lawyers. I have never come across anything like this in 35 yrs.

Edit..
Now I have seen their response to my review I am compelled to add that I asked them if they had interviewed the candidate and they declined to answer. I told AGrir that we were nervous about this candidate and they said the candidate had all the PA1 and PA2 certificates and his driving licence. AGrir sent us the candidates CV with the skills and certificates listed.. we went forward with the candidate on the assurance that AGrir would forward all copies of certificates and licence. We reported our concerns to AGrir and referred to the other 1 star reviews on trust pilot and that was before we even took on the candidate. The candidate was drinking and driving our vehicles and would accept no authority, this was all reported to AGrir well within refund period but they did not offer to refund us.

The NFU insurance company got involved and said the new employee must be suspended from our employment until he provides access to his driving licence, we informed AGrir of this and still AGrir did not send us a copy of the candidates driving licence, then the candidate admitted he was suspended from driving. We reported all this to AGrir and asked AGrir to refund since the CV they provided was bogus and the situation could have jeopardized our entire business. The candidate was sacked and we are still trying to get him out of a company house. Every night something gets stolen from the farm or from another residence.

I am inclined to now post this in social media because I am shocked at AGrir response to my review. AGrir know that what I have described as my experience is exactly correct

For clarity, AgriRS acted in accordance with our agreed Terms of Business and the recruitment professional standards throughout this assignment.

We conducted a full market search and advertising campaign, and all candidates were screened and interviewed by us prior to submission. We provided clear guidance on best practice, including arranging interviews in advance and completing appropriate licence checks, references, and due diligence. While we advise on process, responsibility for interview arrangements and employment checks rests with the employer.

Our agreement operates on a no placement, no fee basis and includes an 8-week rebate/replacement period, which was extended as a gesture of goodwill due to the Christmas period. The circumstances raised fell outside the agreed rebate terms.

We remain committed to ethical, responsible recruitment and constructive, professional partnerships with our clients.

Just to say, I had a fantastic experience with Agri RS. My company has used them over the past three years and has had several placements, all apart from one were perfect, and not the fault of Agri RS, after 3 months of working with us, the candidate decided to change career path! I have no complaints whatsoever with this company, I was dealt with in a professional, courteous and positive manner and would not hesitate to recommend. Thanks to Rebekah and staff.

I have had a very similar experience to the other 1 star reviews on here. Been left feeling completely let down and robbed. I look forward to the same reply as the other 1 star reviews got. Any potential customers, please beware, they do not care about your buisness

After reading their reply. Please see that thier unprofessional reply is a complete fabricated lie. I do believe the good reviews and I believe i would have had a good review to leave if things had worked out with the candidate. Our dealings with them to appoint this candidate had been very positive. Its when things dont work out that the management in this company have no empathy or care for your buisness. I had expected a reply. But not a lie.

Thank you for your feedback, Craig. It’s unfortunate that we couldn’t conclude our phone call to discuss the treatment of the candidate we had placed within your machinery business, as you ended the call.

For readers to understand, this was our first experience of working with this client, the candidate started in a role at an agreed salary and benefits package. Shortly after starting, the client then moved the employee to a lesser role, decreased their salary and removed benefits.

The candidate understandably gave notice to leave.

We uphold our values when dealing with both clients and candidates, treating everyone fairly and ethically. This together with our high percentage rate of filling vacancies, is reflected in the fact that over 85% of our business is from repeat customers who demonstrate the same values in their actions.

Needless to say, we will no longer be dealing with this client, but would like to wish them all the very best with their future recruitment.
