Ignored my emails, never updated me for the jobs I applied for, much better recruiters out there who actually do their job

Terrible agency. Treat workers like cattle but offer zero respect. Have no idea how to run a business, nobody on-site is accountable for anything or to anyone (Banbury). Make decisions willy-nilly. Us... See more

I have very bad experience with them

I have very bad experience with them. I worked 2 days in Redditch at Toolstation. It was in June24 and 25.
Today is 16.9. and im still their employee. I found it out because I pay BR tax. I was wondering why im paying higher tax. I signed in to GOV website and I actually couldn't believe it. They didn't sent P45 or whatever they need to do. Its actually say Meridian is my current employer. I called agency and Maria wasn't really helpful. She said they sent HMRC my P45 but really they didn't.
She said i get that money back yes of course but thats not the point. Point is they didn't work properly!
I sent her email and she didnt even reply me. No communication. And ignorance. Terrible terrible terrible!

Octagon Developments.

I have work for, and with Meridian for the last 11 years.
I have always found them to be good at paying on time, and always getting text messages letting you know your wages a day before. Daniel Keen is a very helpful guy, and i have never had a problem recemending them to anyone looking for work.

Best 6 months work ever !!

I worked for meridian for 6 months. My first experience of agency and they did not disappoint. It was the best working experience I have had! All the people I met were friendly and welcoming, gave me lots of encouragement and support to grow within my role. Pay was always on time with no issues, always available when needed day or night ! The ladies at Wakefield are second to none and I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again !

Fabulous!

My experience of using Meridian has always been very professional and I feel that they really add to our recruitment process. Simon, our Recruitment Consultant, takes time to understand and apply our requirements and knows the skills and the behaviours that we are looking for. They are an excellent source of knowledge and are always flexible to our requirements.

Simon has been incredibly thorough…

Simon has been incredibly thorough drilling down into my experience and skills to ensure the job is right for me and I am right for it, before moving forward. He has given great advice and excellent pointers for my own research so that I am fully informed before we progress. I will be getting in touch next time I am recruiting!

Simon Denney - Meridian Business Support Croydon

We have used Simon from Meridian for a number of years. He has taken time to get to know our business, our goals, and the skills required for our roles. He has always understood that I have multiple jobs within our business and will be patient with feedback which has been great. Having placed a number of candidates with us we are able to trust his recommendations and know that he has fully assessed candidates before sending them over which saves us a lot of time. Highly recommend his approach!
