I used this company on recommendation of a friend who knows the Founder. Admittedly, he hadn't hired anyone thru La Fosse, but he had heard that they were meant to be different to most recruitment companies. Idea is they give very few CV's. They gave me all the spiel about why they were the best. Breath of fresh air I thought! Sadly I was so sold on their pitch I didn't bother checking the reviews on here and now I wish I had.
Their business model is a classic case of over promising and under delivering. They promise you the earth and can't find the candidates. Except it's worse than that. They promise, then fail, then tell you they never made the promise in the first place.
If you're looking for Developers don't bother. Despite what they might say upfront, they only have one person working on their entire Dev function, yet they will sell themselves as a 'Tech' consultancy. Their network is too limited, and they don't have a big enough pool of candidates. Looking at candidates reviews below it seems like they just don't get back to people, maybe because they only hire junior staff according to the reviews on Glassdoor. Whatever the reason, don't use them. They are a waste of time.
