Graduate Recruitment Bureau (GRB) Reviews 

Elena at GRB was excellent at every stage of my job search. From the beginning in finding me suitable roles to my interests and experience, to acting as a brilliant mentor through each interview stage i went through she was amazing. I wouldn't have been able to achieve in securing the start of my career without her. Would highly recommend GRB to all graduates out there.

Sue Bamford, from GRB was brilliant . Our son has recently moved to Dubai ( January ) to study and Sue has been there for us each step of the way.
Sue, answered all our questions, followed up on any queries, listen to our concerns, clarified lots of questions and mostly all, put us at ease.
Sue, is knowledgeable, open and transparent.

As parents, we felt confident in the information shared by Sue.
Thank you so much and would recommend GRB -and liaising with Sue, the support is excellent.

The GRB have helped me get an incredible job to start my career! They phoned me with a role that they thought suited my CV/aspirations for work and within a few days I had my first interview booked. Owen acted like a mentor for me, contacting me before and after each stage of the interview process and giving me plenty of tips along the way. His advice definitely played a role in me getting my job. I started two weeks ago and have thoroughly enjoyed it so far. I would highly recommend any graduate to use the GRB if they aren't too sure where to begin their job search.

I am very grateful for James' exceptional support throughout my job search process. His responsiveness and helpful guidance were instrumental in securing my current position. James not only assisted me in preparing thoroughly for interviews but also consistently kept me informed about the entire process. His dedication made the journey less daunting, and I appreciate his contribution to my successful job placement. Thank you, James, and the GRB team, for the outstanding assistance!

Grace has been a great person to work with since the day she presented me with the opportunity. She always stayed in contact even after working hours which is a testament to her dedication and professionalism in her role.
I am grateful that she helped me secure a job I am passionate about. Wishing her all the best.

Also thank you to Emma for her additional support throughout.

All I can say is that Sabina Sanchez Perez is a fantastic individual who helped me find and clinch my new job from start to finish. She is a fantastic asset to your company and one I will certainly recommend. Words cannot thank her enough.

Had a great experience with graduate recruitment bureau. Very friendly, enthusiastic when coming up with job roles for me to do with what I was interested in. Came up with some interesting options for job roles that I would not have found myself all which were still related to my interests. Stayed very positive and didn’t give up after getting rejected by one job after getting to a final interview stage, then went on to find a different role where I then got the job and was very pleased with that role. Would definitely recommend to other engineering graduates looking for a job.

I've been at my job secured thanks to GRB for two months now. Within a month of contacting GRB, Ian had reached out to me about the role, arranged an interview, and organised handing over the contract to me.
Throughout this time the team also sent me a range of other available jobs. My search for a role after graduation was becoming increasingly frustrating, especially given that I was only looking for a role in the charity sector. GRB were the most helpful recruitment company I've come across. They were quick to adapt my job recommendations and let me know when new opportunities came up.

Terrible ! They are not helpful at all !

I have been applying to jobs with GRB for at least a year. Despite having graduated with in Economics. I only received one interview. Just loads of unrelated job adverts. But still hardly any interviews and the one interview I had no feedback. Honestly, best thing you can do is by applying directly to the company. GRB can't get you a job. At the end of the day you are just another number to them.

I received lots of unprompted phone calls and emails which I was unable to unsubscribe from. I also received "targeted" job adverts with essential criteria that clearly did not match my profile (e.g. STEM degree, specific language fluency). This "matching" system really needs to be improved.

An interesting opportunity was sent to me which I applied for and was put forward for interview. The recruiter did not send me an interview link on time meaning I was 10 minutes late to the interview, and luckily the interviewers waited for me. I was put forward to the next stage and was told that the GRB recruiter would continue contact and send me details nearer the time, and this never happened. I have received no further communication from GRB regarding this role, and I have no internal contact details for the company.

It seems that even on the small chance that you go beyond the stage of sending a CV to a recruiter and receiving no further contact, you will still be ghosted.

Efficient communication and good match of my experience and skills with the position.

After signing up and receiving emails from GRB it allowed me to look into employment areas I wouldn’t originally pick out myself but were perfect for my skill set. Mia has been amazing though out the whole process in keeping me updated and helping to prepare for interviews which immediately made me feel more comfortable. She was always available for help via email and the phone calls helped to settle nerves, having her as a bridge of communication between myself and the role allowed me to secure a job offer which I am so excited about and I couldn’t have done it without the help of Mia and Emma at GRB!

Coming from a recruitment background I know a good recruiter when I see one - Beth Terry kept me up to date every step of the way and was superb in securing me a new role in a new sector, preparing me more than adequately for the process and making what would have been a tough competency/role play based interview a seamless experience. 10/10 service - highly recommended!

Aimee and Emma set me up with an amazing job offer. Made the entire process stress free. I was fully informed of what was expected of me and the specific job responsibilities. Unemployed for only two weeks thanks to GRB!

After graduating, I was struggling navigating the job market, but with the help of Lauren Whitfield from the GRB I was able to land my dream job. After initially contacting me, she supported me throughout the whole process, taking time out to answer any questions,
providing helpful advice and support with interview preparation. I couldn't have asked for anything better in the lead up to both interviews!

I've found the job market difficult to navigate, but the GRB have been superb. Lauren Whitfield has helped me from start to finish to get the right job for me, supporting me at every stage through a difficult selection process. She was always there with useful advice, and a welcome boost to my confidence at a time when it's easy for your confidence to be dented. I would recommend the GRB without hesitation.

After graduating from university with a business management title, I was very confused when it came to applying for post graduate jobs. I did my research and came across GRB. Working closely with Emily and Beth has helped a lot in understanding what kind of jobs I’d like to apply for and in a short period of time we managed to find my first job that I’m currently enjoying a lot and feel like I’m finally kick-starting my career. Thank you to everyone I have been in touch with from GRB.

After searching for a job independently for quite some time without any luck, I was very relieved when put into contact with James Simpson at the GRB. I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with this group. James has been friendly, helpful, and through his hunting introduced me to a job I might never have found on my own. I'm now one month in to this new job and having a really good time. I would recommend this service to anyone who feels as though they could use some guidance / a push in the right direction towards the career of their choice.

As a recent graduate, I did not have much insight in to what career direction I wished to pursue. This was until I contacted the GRB. Having been in touch with many recruitment agencies across the UK, my recruiter Carla Bidgood is hands down the best I have been in touch with. Her friendliness, approachable nature and drive to find me a job have made this painstaking process so easy. I do feel really lucky to have her on my side. Thank you Carla!
