After speaking with many recruiters in London throughout my job search, I can confidently say that Adam’s dedication, responsiveness and proactive approach makes him a true leader in legal recruitment, as well as a pleasure to work with. He took the time to genuinely understand what I was looking for, had excellent industry connections and insight, and was key to ensuring I secured my ideal position from Australia. I was very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Adam to others.

Adam’s knowledge and connections in the industry combined with his proactive approach gave me confidence that I was putting my best foot forward in the application process. I found this particularly important given I was moving across to the UK from Australia.

He was professional, kept me regularly updated and prepared me well for the nuances of the recruitment processes of each respective firm I interviewed with.

Ultimately, I was pleased with the outcome and would happily recommend Adam to others.

From the beginning of the recruitment process, Adam was very supportive, encouraging and diligent. He always provided as much information as possible, and took the time to obtain the relevant information if he did not have it immediately, to be able to respond more fully at a later time.

He was very diligent in regularly checking in before and after interviews and made a point of checking where I stood in terms of decisions. Even after the recruitment process was completed, he ensured to regularly make contact to see how I was settling in to my new role.
