The most seamless recruitment experience I’ve had so far

From the very first conversation, they listened. They took the time to understand my personal circumstances and experience, and made the role they wanted to talk to me about feel relevant and relatable.

Communication throughout was like speaking with someone I’d known for years. They quickly became a trusted voice — always honest, always responsive.

What stood out most was the support. I was thoroughly prepped for each stage, with persona-specific insights and clear expectations of what success in the role would look like. It felt like more of a partnership than a sales pitch, which is rare in recruitment.

That approach played a huge role in my decision to join Fairmarkit. I genuinely felt understood, and never pushed in a direction that wasn’t right for me.

If you’re considering working with them, my advice is simple: 100% yes.

Fantastic support - from first phone call to starting.

Outstanding support from start to finish
I had an incredible experience working with Oakstone. Ben and Steve were with me every step of the way – professional, approachable, and genuinely supportive. They left no stone unturned in preparing me for each stage of the process, and I never once felt pressured or pushed in a direction that didn’t feel right. Instead, I felt fully supported and informed at every turn. I couldn’t have asked for more – thank you both for helping me land such an exciting new role!

Amazing experience with Arran Campbell

Amazing experience working with Arran Campbell as a recruiter. I've worked and spoke with other recruiters in the past but Arran is in an elite class and absolutely a great person to work with. What stands out to me is how each of his messages were extremely personal, never withheld information on the company, acted with full transparency throughout the process and genuinely cared that it was a good fit for both myself and the company. Although transitioning to a new role thanks to Arran, I'd gladly work with him in the future and couldn't give a better recommendation to anyone considering working with him.

My experience with Oakstone International.

I had a great experience working with Sam Reader throughout the interview process for an Account Executive Sales role. Sam was incredibly patient, kept things clear and organized, and was super helpful every step of the way.

Thanks to his support, I’m excited to be starting a new chapter with my new employer. Really appreciate everything, Sam—cheers!

High standards—supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making the right connections!

From our first interaction, it was clear that they prioritize quality, transparency, and long-term relationships over quick placements.

Sam, in particular, stands out for his professionalism, clear communication, and deep understanding of both client needs and candidate potential. He takes the time to truly understand the roles he’s recruiting for, which results in highly tailored and successful matches. His honest approach and responsiveness make the hiring process not only efficient but also enjoyable.

The entire agency operates with the same high standards—supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making the right connections. Whether you’re a company seeking top-tier talent or a professional exploring new opportunities, I highly recommend working with Sam!

5 Stars for Arran + Oakstone!

I wanted to take a moment to share my appreciation for Arran at Oakstone. From our very first conversation, Arran has been nothing short of fantastic—professional, approachable, and incredibly dedicated. He took the time to really understand what I was looking for, kept me informed at every stage, and provided thoughtful advice that made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

His communication was always clear and timely, and I truly felt like he was in my corner throughout. It’s rare to come across someone who is both exceptionally competent and genuinely invested in your success—Arran is exactly that.

Thank you, Arran, for going above and beyond. You're a credit to Oakstone, and I’m genuinely grateful for all your support.
