Testimonials - My Birmingham Jobs

We have now filled the position (through yourselves) successfully.Can I thank you for your efforts in filling both our positions.The process was both efficient & painless, I would certainly use yourselvesin the future.
Malcolm Smith, Production Manager, Ulmke Metals

We have recently started using My Birmingham Jobs after we held reserves due to the poor performance we had previously received from competitor job boards Monster, Fish4Jobs and Total Jobs.  After the first 48 hours of using My Birmingham Jobs, our expectations of how a job board should perform were finally both met and overcompensated for.  With the continued help and support from our Account Manager Lee Murray, we have found My Birmingham Jobs to truly be one of the best job boards we have encountered.  All of our consultants continually receive a constant flow of high calibre candidates matching all of our clients desired criteria.  This is also strongly supported by the sales figures we are now achieving.  This could not have been possible without the assistance of the My Birmingham Jobs website and their team of dedicated staff.  In the last two months we have watched what should be our quietest months turn into two of our best months so far this year. I would like to personally thank all the staff and the creators of the My Birmingham Jobs website and would strongly recommend to anybody who is looking to find a solution to their recruitment needs to contact My Birmingham Jobs for their professional assistance.

Aspire People have been using My Birmingham Jobs for the past year or so.  As an established recruitment agency we are constantly in need of high quality and professional candidates. We have found that the standard of candidates we get through this site is second to none. We receive a flow of cvs from the site and are constantly impressed as to how they are local people looking for local jobs  - this obviously saves our consultants a lot of time as they find they are never chasing people who are miles away or not really looking for work.
On top of all of this we have found the support we get from the team at the Birmingham office is superb and they are always happy to go that extra mile to make sure we receive relevant candidates – and of  informing us of extra branding that is available that  will make our vacancies more prominent on the site, they always have a solution.
Overall our experience with My Birmingham Jobs has been a very positive one and the site has become essential to our company. I would definitely recommend the site to other local companies.
Louise Breheny, Director, Aspire People

I just wanted to email you to say how successful I have found the CV alerts section of your website on MyBirminghamJobs.I recruit for volume contracts and every morning without fail I have a list of people to call through who have either renewed their cv details or are a new user of mybirminghamjobs.  Most importantly their criteria match what I am recruiting for.
Sally Chesterton, Staffing Manager, Adecco


After 12 years of being in recruitment I have had numerous calls from job sites asking if I would be interested in subscribing to them. My job group contacted me on a variety of occasions when it was difficult to talk and Chris accepted this (very unusual for the majority of sales individuals!) and diarised to call me back on 8 separate occasions and without fail called me back at the times I had suggested - I hasten to add we trialed the site for 1 month and have had excellent results. The service from the initial call to the final signature on the contract has been superb. As a consultancy we use 6 job sites ...all household names - so far MyJobGroup has proven to have the best service.

"Here at GCL, we started utilising My Birmingham Jobs in September 07 based on their excellent cost effective packages on offer and our recruitment needs during a busy period. We received a good response to our advert along with excellent account management, support and advice from the team at My Birmingham Jobs. Advertising on the site not only produced good results but increased our company awareness due to the excellent branding on offer. Next time we are recruiting we will definitely be in contact with My Birmingham Jobs".
Ranjit Gill, HR Manager, GCL Direct


We began utilising www.mybirminghamjobs.co.uk in July '07 and received an instant response to the vacancies posted. Having recently re-signed for another three months, we have found the response to be consistently strong across all of the sectors that we recruit for. The CV database is also a very valuable tool and has assisted us to fulfill our clients requirements. We have been very happy with the customer service received from the Birmingham team and hope to continue our mutually beneficial relationship for the foreseable future.

"As the the largest UK owned recruitment communications agency, at Barkers we need to be sure of spending client budget wisely whether using on or offline solutions. MyjobGroup has provided the local geographical impact across the North of England that we and our clients need. The fact that clients as diverse as O2, Sheffield Hallam University, University of Leeds and Ventura have been increasing their expenditure significantly is testament to the return on investment experienced by these clients. And as a digital media solution, whether using myleedsjobs, mysheffieldjobs mymanchesterjobs or mybirminghamjobs we know that not only can we be sure of the highest standards of customer service, but also reach the candidates that our clients are after in an ever more competitive market. We're watching the geographical expansion with interest!"

Daniel, Just a quick note to say thank you for your assistance with our recruitment drive. We have never used a recruitment website for this type of work before, and from looking at the candidates who came from your link, the standard was very good. This was also highlighted in the appointed a new Graduate who was through myjobgroup. Again, many thanks and look forward to working with you again.
Sarah, Bid Co-ordination Manager, A4E

Claire, just to let you know the site has been working fantastically and I have arranged several interviews.
Rosie, STL Training


'My Birmingham Jobs have proved to be an excellent source of quality candidates for us. We are a Birmingham based teaching recruitment agency and have always struggled to find local quality candidates using the national online recruiters and the local press has always been very expensive and does not guarantee results. My Birmingham Jobs offered us the chance to target local candidates using a cost effective media.Within a few days of posting jobs on the site we received the CV of an excellent English teacher who was interested in one of our vacancies. We emailed the CV over to the school and within the week the candidate was interviewed and offered the job. The fee for this placement has paid for the cost of advertising with My Birmingham Jobs many times over and since then we have had many quality candidates apply for our vacancies. My Birmingham Jobs has proved to be an excellent source of quality local candidates at a cost effective price. We have found the service offered and the quality of candidates to be excellent and we look forward to working closely with you in the future.'
L Doherty, Recruitment Manager, Supply Network
