My experience with Jon, is that of a search executive who possesses a high degree of integrity, commitment and passion towards his clients.

Jon recognised my knowledge, skills and abilities, and my real strengths through attentive listening and a deep consideration of my career. He helped me to improve my marketing strategies, and to subsequently source a suitable role. Jon stepped up to meet my challenge and walked the extra mile with me, where most other recruiters didn't.

We worked with Olivia and CSG Talent on a Global Pricing Manager position that we had struggled to fill internally and had reached out to them due to their knowledge and network in the industry. Olivia worked very quickly to find relevant candidates, set up interviews and to gather feedback from ourselves and candidates.

Overall, I have a positive impression of CSG Talent and personally would be happy to partner with them again.VP Marketing, Epiroc.
Olivia is such a talented hiring professional which sees the potential within you. She takes the needed actions on time and helps the candidate relax during unexpected steps if happen.

Sophie took me through the recruitment process for a position with a large multinational mining company. Through a long drawn out recruitment process, of no fault of Sophie’s, Sophie was always positive, communicated extremely well and quickly responded to any of my questions. Since gaining the position, Sophie has been in touch several times to follow up on how I am getting along in the new position. Overall, Sophie was very supportive, and helped make the process a lot smoother.
I recently worked with Sophie and CSG for the first time, and I can honestly say that from start to finish, I experienced a fantastic level of service which should be the envy of the industry. Sophie kept in regular contact with me throughout the process and regularly gave me a call just to say “good luck” or “how did it go?”. For this to lead to securing a fantastic role with such an exciting and progressive organisation was simply the icing on the cake.
Sam is an enthusiastic guy who enjoys helping others realize the professional dream you always had. That happened with me. Sam became an honest friend who doesn't rest until he found the ideal job for you. It was a very nice experience working with him. Highly recommended!
There are a lot of recruiters in the marine industry that don't know much about shipping. It’s rare to find someone as knowledgeable as Sam. I found he was very up to date on who the key players are, the relationships within the companies, and corporate culture. Sam is refreshingly no non-sense, direct and honest. He truly did have my best interest as his primary concern, to find the best company fit. Sam enjoys helping others realize the professional dream you always had, and Sam became an honest friend who didn't rest until he found the ideal job for me .
