“Ian’s recruitment royalty – my friends and I who I’ve recommend him to would never make a move without first conferring with Ian”.

 


“My career is important to me given the sacrifices I’ve made to become qualified – what I like about Focus is the objective and insightful advice they give. I’m not interested in having someone find me a job, I’m all about proper career moves for making an informed choice in arriving at a decision and they get it”.

 


“In terms of knowledge of the legal talent market in Queensland – none come close to Focus”.

 


Thank you for your valuable time and the important information you provided to me. Mr Dhu, you are a person of rare integrity and perception. I was impressed with your honesty!

 


Thank you so much to all the team for your assistance.  I am incredibly excited about my appointment and I have Focus to thank for it.  Everyone I dealt with was amazing.  You have all been efficient, enthusiastic, supportive and professional from start to finish.  I can’t thank you enough!

 


I would like to take the opportunity to thank you and your firm for helping me. I appreciate the time you took to meet with me as I feel it helped my understanding of the interview process. I will recommend you to any of my friends who require recruitment services in the future.

 


Thank you for being so proactive – my colleague said you were excellent at your job and she was not kidding

My colleague told me about you and Focus and said how efficient, pro-active and helpful you were so I thought I would contact you so you could keep me in mind if something came along that would suit my circumstances.

 


YOU’RE AMAZING!

 


You have been the best recruiter out of the many I have dealt with. Very personable and understanding. Thank you very much.

 


I would like to thank you for all you efforts. I found your service very helpful and attentive. I have passed your details onto a colleague of mine who is also considering their career options.

 


Thank you very much for all of your effort, time and support in assisting me seek employment.  I appreciate everything you have done for me!

 


I have had an extremely positive experience with this Agency.  The staff were always courteous, helpful and honest in every dealing that they had with me.  My recruitment agent ensured that she gauged a thorough understanding of my needs and requirements and subsequently found me a position that matched my criteria.

I would definitely recommend the services of this agency to any future candidate.

 


Its been a pleasure working with you, very professional service with a personal touch, not all talk like some agents I have dealt with, thanks again to the team.  I would refer my friends/colleagues without hesitation.

 


I strongly recommend Focus Recruitment and the services Ian Dhu and his staff provide in creating, realising and supporting Solicitors at all levels in their career, the pathway of learning and development.

Prior to achieving status as a fully fledged solicitor, as budding solicitor I put out my feelers for that first exciting and challenging role in the profession.  Many agencies advised me to call back when I had achieved 12 months experience on my resume.  This can be quite demoralising and the question of the chicken and the egg comes to play.  How do I achieve a year of experience if the agencies will not assist in securing the first role?

Focus identified and maintained their difference right from the start.  They took the time to explore my options, career aspirations and goals right from the beginning.  Although I secured my first role independently, advice was only a phone call away.  The advice was as simple as canvassing the benefits and detriments of a role I was considering, the bouncing of ideas, or undertaking a full audit and consultation of next steps.

Focus were the only agency to recognise my achievement of partnership and a bottle of wine, chocolates and other gifts were forthcoming to assist in the celebration and recognition.

I look forward to maintaining my relationship with Focus, knowing that I can confidently rely upon the team to guide, challenge and support me in the Profession.  I truly appreciate the invaluable service they provide.

 


It took Focus Legal Recruitment less than 2 weeks to place me at a firm that ticked all the right boxes.  Any candidate could only hope for such a short turn-around period and Focus made it happen!  I will be recommending Focus Legal Recruitment to all of my colleagues who are looking for new and exciting opportunities (I have already referred a colleague to Focus).

 


The Consultant and staff members were very personable, professional and genuine in supporting me to ascertain the job. There is nothing I could suggest that Focus improve upon and I am happy to consent to having my comments published as a testimonial. 

 


I was impressed by the professionalism of Focus.  There is nothing I can suggest they improve upon – it was excellent service.  I have already referred a friend to Focus.

 


Thanks Focus for helping me get my dream job.  I would be happy to refer anyone to Focus – they showed true professionalism throughout.  Love Your Work!

 


Ian, thank you very much for helping me firstly to identify what I wanted from my next career posting AND secondly, thank you very much for identifying a great opportunity AND thirdly, thank you for helping me get the position!

 


I found the service provided by the consultants and the support staff excellent.  Particularly I liked that I was emailed or SMS’d details of my interview.  This proved very helpful.  They were always available to talk to me and answer all questions.  In general, FANTASTIC service!

 


Great job Focus!  Great feedback either daily or weekly on new roles and processing to interview.  I would definitely recommend your services.
