“We have been working with Carrot to fill some tricky niche briefs. They have succeeded where other recruiters have really struggled. Most recently placing two great candidates for us, filling roles in both programming and panel management. I rate them highly for the way in which they collaborate with us to get the right information into the brief, taking time to fully understand the key qualities we are looking for and what we offer in return. They were friendly, personable, prompt and efficient, keeping us updated on progress and works with great integrity for both candidates and us, as the business hiring which we greatly appreciate.”

They provided us with some really strong candidates and one that we have now offered!
