“Having worked with a variety of recruitment agencies in the past, it has been a refreshing change to deal with Caritas. Their level of understanding towards the needs within the world of social care has enhanced a positive and constructive working relationship. Unlike some previous experiences, their recruitment consultants have the ability to recognise the needs of a service, are aware of the need to achieve positive outcomes for service users and can offer the advice or support without a ‘hard sell approach’ that may be underpinned by a recruitment agency’s own priorities and targets. Their interactions and communication have a ‘personal touch’ and they carry out their business in manner that focuses upon the needs of the client”.

“Caritas have been one of the agencies who have stood out amongst the dozen or more we work with. They work in a very complimentary way with us to find candidates to match the specific requirements we have along with the high standards that we always expect. Their consultants show very good communication skills and an understanding of what is required of them in that we are constantly kept in the loop throughout the whole process of sourcing, seeing and taking on any new candidates. It is evident that they also have good lines of communication between themselves as I have had direct contact with the majority of their consultants over the last year, and they are all up to speed with exactly what our requirements are. Overall I would certainly recommend Caritas to work in partnership with your company. The calibre of their candidates is very good, their fees are reasonable, they are prompt in dealing with our requests, are happy to follow our procedures and understand exactly what we ask of them”.
