I have known Kirsten for over 20 years and she has helped me place a number of employees. Kirsten takes the time to understand the company and the hiring manager to ensure a compatible candidate is placed. Must doing something right as we keep coming back to find good candidates

Kirsten has recently recruited an accountant for our team. She took the the time to understand the role and presented us with quality candidates, all of which we would have been happy to hire. I have worked with Kirsten for many years and have always found her to be very professional and have always valued the advice she has provided.

Kirsten called me regarding a job opportunity. She was very professional and had great communication skills. Kirsten made me feel very comfortable as I haven’t applied for a job for a few years and was a bit nervous.

Kirsten is a very patient and helpful lady. She is a very good mentor to prepare anyone for an interview. I have learnt that beside familiar with a job being advertised, I think I will be more prepared now instead of blubbering on unnecessarily in interviews. (nerves...)

I have met Kirsten virtually. She is very professional with good people skills. She is thorough and very knowledgeable. I was surprised that she even knows the background of my previous employer! I was asked very detailed and important questions even relating to my degree and qualifications. Overall she’s the type of recruitment specialist that anyone would love to deal with.

Having worked alongside Kirsten Garrett as a Para-Consultant, reporting in to her as my manager and also working with her as a 360 Recruitment Consultant, I've had an exemplary experience on both fronts. Kirsten was integral in my training, integration into company culture and overall achievements over four years at People2people.
Kirsten ensured my training and hands on experience were build with a strong grounding in concepts, structure and process, while making sure the work ethic and speed of recruitment were always there.
Her guidance as a manager and colleague, through leadership and action, helped me develop many personal and professional skills, which have served me in life and professional roles since. She's a pleasure to work with, always able to have a laugh and carries herself professionally, while interacting genuinely with people from all walks of life.
I'll be happy to recommend Kirsten to anyone seeking work or looking for an experienced, supportive and memorable manager.
