John’s testimonials
HR Manager | Global Law Firm
„I’ve known John for a long time. He is the only recruiter that has been with me from the early years of my HR career until now. I trust him to have my and my company’s best interests and the skills and personality of his candidate fully at the top of the page, every time. I have had more long term successful recruits stay and grow with the company’s I have worked in that have come from John Bruce than any other recruitment company, probably combined. He is personable, easy to deal with and knows what we want. As long as we both continue in the same fields, I will continue to call him first.“
Head of Learning and Development | Insurance Company
John is one of those rare professionals you meet in life who goes the extra mile. He takes the time to get to know you, your competencies and where your strengths lie in terms of meeting the job role. More importantly, he is adept at working out how best to present you as a complete package in the recruitment field. John is truly an expert in his field and the industry he represents. Despite knowing I was up against some strong competition for the job I was aiming for; I went into the interview filled with confidence – John gave me that edge.“
