JAC Recruitment - www.jac-recruitment.co.uk

The earlier review on here mirrors my experience entirely. Things were all friendly and nice when I went in to sign up with them, but they've not called me once with any offers in almost a year. In addition, while I was still in their offices right after I'd registered with them, they were really pushy about getting me to relocate for a vacancy they had, even though I told them I didn't have the necessary funds to move elsewhere, and they weren't prepared to offer me any financial assistance anyway! Very silly, really.

Absolute rubbish. They never contact you, you have to do all the chasing and when you finally get through, you find out they've ignored all your requirements and offer you rubbish positions. You might as well pick something out of a bag cos 100% of their recommendations (out of a good 20-30) pay substantially lower than what I currently earn, a demotion be it in different company and half of their recommendations were in a completely different career or sector. The same thing happened when the market was vibrant so this is not a reflection on the present recession and lack of positions, its how unprofessional they are. Secretary keeps you on hold forever and when you complain to the manager, you get nothing.

To top all this, I doubt the majority of their advertised positions are genuine because whenever I enquire about semi decent positions, they don't know anything about it. Surprisingly, they always manage to get filled in half a day and remains advertised for months.
