Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience with Cherry Professional. Click and drag to read more!
Marie - Candidate - Derby
"Kerry has been great, always keeping me updated with immediate responses. Was getting a slow response to my CV in general but straight away Kerry went through it and explained how things are currently (not sure if there was too much info etc) and reassured me, felt very positive after her "pep" talk. Although I am currently starting a temp role, I feel assured that Kerry will do her best and find me my new permanent job that suits my requirements and skill set. Well done Kerry, Gold Star. I have been in contact with quite afew recruiters and have had a poor response and in some cases none! Cherry definitely stands out for me"
Luke - Client - Derby
"Having been passed to Kieran and Jennifer by Gareth, they provided an excellent service that got me from candidate to offer in three weeks over the tricky Christmas period, making sure I always had someone working on things. I had 5 great candidates to look at and the two we interviewed were a credit to Cherry. Thank you for your hard work on this."
Samantha - Candidate - Nottingham
"From beginning to end, from temp to perm. I've found the perfect job! I have to say that Cherry Professional are the best agency in Nottingham! They found me a temp to perm position and 3 months later I'm so happy in my new role. They are friendly, a pleasure to deal with and really know what candidates need. Highly recommended! I dealt with Kate Lavery in Nottingham and I really want her to be thanked for helping me and being the perfect consultant!
Jayne - Candidate - Nottingham
"Jen pursued me for a role which I'd not responded to her about when she'd emailed the details to me a few days earlier. I'd been unsure about the role when I first saw the email, but when Jen spoke to me about it, I became more interested and agreed (reservedly) for my cv to be put forward. Thanks to Jen I had a very constructive introductory meeting which has now led to me being offered the role. Somehow, Jen had matched me to the role, so thanks to Jen for her match-making and perseverance. Thanks too, for all her support along the way."
John - Candidate - Yorkshire
"Danielle was amazing. Kept in contact with me at every stage, offering advice and tips when needed, as well as encouragement and support leading up to every interview and conversation. Unlike other recruiters I have dealt with where I felt like I was just another number, I knew exactly what was happening all the time and that this was about finding the right fit for me rather than just finding any job that was available. "
Karen - Candidate - Derby
"Cherry Professional are my 'go to' agency as an individual seeking employment and an HR Manager looking to recruit. From a candidate's point of view they always have access to roles which are exciting and they always match you with jobs that are a perfect fit. I have found my last two roles via Cherry and I simply wouldn't have found these great jobs without their support. They really know their candidates and their help in preparing for interviews is excellent. As a recruiting client, Cherry take the time to really understand the businesses they are working with. They take time to meet each applicant and ensure that they are the perfect fit for the role and organisation before even considering submitting a CV. They won't bombard you with candidates but the ones you get will be top quality. I wish all agencies were as professional as Cherry."
Kristy - Candidate - Derby
"I dealt with a few of the consultants and all of them were great. The emails with the job overviews were great, much better than searching the website/ LinkedIn. All of the jobs emailed to me were of the right nature, I wasn’t bombarded with roles I wasn’t interested in. The team kept me briefed on progress etc. By far the best recruitment team I’ve worked with. Thank you very much"
Christopher - Candidate - Derby
"Kerry has been an outstanding consultant. She has found me two jobs in the last 12 months , her sound advice , honesty and good humour has been much appreciated and hand on heart Cherry Professional would be the first company I would call if I waslooking for another role in the future."
Christian - Candidate - Nottingham
"Tara and Cherry Professional as a whole were very warm and supportive in the interview process, she made me feel confident going into the interview and assured me that she was available if I had any questions/ queries. Best recruitment service that I have received and I am very grateful."
Lee - Candidate - Nottingham
"I am over the moon to have been offered the job which I applied for, despite not looking for the job at all. I worked briefly with Kieran back in December 2019 and he still remembered my situation and got in touch as he believed the role was a great fit for me, which I believe it will be. At the start of the process I was on Holiday, Kieran knew this and took the responsibility of amending my CV and tried to bother me as little as possible in the process, and he wasn't a bother one bit. The advice provided before each telephone/skype/face to face interview proved invaluable and gave me the confidence to attack the application process. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Kieran and would recommend his services to anyone. "
Martin - Candidate - Derby
"From start to finish, I cannot fault Cherry Professional. Ruby is a fantastic Candidate Supervisor and is never too busy to talk. The ability of the team to secure employment very quickly, even in these strange times of lock-down, non-contact discussions and virtual interview processes; nothing was too much for the team at Cherry to sort. I was made redundant from one job and within two weeks was able to secure a role for what was going to be a couple of weeks to help out. This ended up being a 15 weeks temporary role that has culminated in being offered a permanent role. My thanks to all at Cherry, especially Ruby."
Mary - Candidate - Derby
"Georgia was in touch with me from start to end. Even taking the time out in the evening (7pm) to do a face to face interview prior to the actual interview with selected company. Communication was excellent, professional and friendly. Would highly recommend. Georgia is a credit to your company."
Eloise - Candidate - Nottingham
"Kieran was brilliant as a recruitment consultant and found a job that matched what I was looking for perfectly. He gave fantastic advice at every stage, from CV writing and interview prep to keeping me up to date with all of the latest news relating to the company I was applying for. I would highly recommend Kieran to anyone looking for a new job in the financial sector."
Nishan - Candidate - Nottingham
"I was recommended Cherry Professional by my cousin who received an excellent service securing a role she desired. I was more than happy with Kate who was supportive, always kept in updated about the role and things to prepare for my interview which resulted me securing that role."
Martin - Candidate - Derby
"Cherry Professional lived up to their name and were totally Professional. I found the consultant Laura Harris very friendly and easy to get on with and she made the work transition very easy. I recommend anyone to use their services. I have worked with a lot of agencies in the past who have not excelled as much as Cherry Professional, especially getting a job in lock down. Well done Laura for your help.! "
Naun - Candidate - Leicester
"From the beginning, I was able to receive tips to make my CV look better and was able to successfully secure an interview within a few days. The tips and information for my interview were amazing, enabling me to go into the interview with confidence. The whole process from the initial call with Kieran to securing a job took less than a week that allowed me to enjoy Christmas in peace. Cherry Professional seems to have a strong relationship with the companies and knows the company well. I definitely recommend Cherry Professional when looking for jobs"
Magnus - Candidate - Nottingham
"I've known Cathal for a few years. We've met face to face and he's spoken to Finance Directors I've worked for so knows what I can and cannot do. This means he only contacts me with suitable roles which wastes neither my time, Cherry's nor the client's which isbest for all parties. He's also very personable and easy to talk to!"
Nahila - Candidate - Nottingham
"Danielle provided a first class service and gave me all the information required for the role. Danielle was open and transparent and was able to give me honest feedback. I received all the support that I needed as well as guidance on my job search. Overall extremely satisfied with the support that I have received and I would most definitely use Danielle again for my future job search and in a professional capacity. "
Luca - Candidate - Nottingham
"Actually relationship led, got to know me as a candidate and what my career goals and targets were, to then provide me with relevant roles and not just anything and everything! Felt fully supported and communicated with throughout and the in depth knowledge of the roles that I was being talked about was brilliant. Having used and spoken with many different finance recruitment companies in the East Midlands, Cherry is among the best."
Damian - Candidate - Derby
"I was very pleased with how quick everything happened. Spoke with Ruby for less than a week and she got me a great role that I'm super excited for, usually with my experience from other agencies it can be a very long drawn out process that can take months. she was very helpful and gave me great advice regarding the interview and found a perfect role for me."
Jeanette - Candidate - Derby
"Georgia was constantly keeping me updated with the progress of my application and answered any questions I had even after working hours. After being made redundant from a competitor, it’s so nice and refreshing that I have been so well looked after by another agency. Thanks Georgia 😁😁"
Jane - Candidate - Nottingham
No improvement needed, absolutely amazing support and I can only recommend your agency! Very helpful and profession service, dream job found within 2-3 weeks. I can only say thanks to Georgia Jonson who was looking after me and found for me a job within 2 days! Georgia was very professional, helpful, enthusiastic and friendly! Big thank you Georgia!
Sophie - Candidate - Derby
"Georgia is absolutely fantastic. She makes the job search so easy and you feel she is behind you every step of the way. She always keeps you updated and always responds quickly when you need to talk to her. Amazing in finding me my new role. Cherry Professional don't make you feel like a number."
Jamil - Candidate, Derby
"Without any hesitation I would say that Cherry Professional is the best recruitment agency in Derby as they are extremely professional, reliable, honest and caring group of people. I am truly grateful to Kelly for all her hard work and fantastic communication throughout the process and especially grateful for her help to reschedule my interview when I was not available to attend one. From the very first day Kelly has been doing everything to help me find the perfect role and she has put all her efforts to make this happen, she kept me up to date and was always available to answer any question. Cannot thank Kelly enough for all her hard work and extremely professional approach. I would definitely recommend using Cherry Professional as they are honest and professional."
Lori - Candidate, Nottingham
"Claire from Cherry helped me find my dream job and now I’m working for a company that I absolutely love and can’t wait to get stuck in. I wouldn’t have been able to find this job without Claire’s help, I was starting to lose hope and a morning phone call from Cherry turned it all around. From beginning to end, Claire truly cared about the whole process, she was only a phone call away when I needed a bit of advice or to calm my nerves. I am so appreciative, thank you so much!"
Donna - Candidate, Nottingham
"Fantastic service provided by Cherry Professional. Met with the agency on Thursday and had a permanent job offer by Tuesday! I would not hesitate to recommend this recruitment agency, Nicola Freeman in particular was so helpful, going out of her way to find the perfect role with the right company to meet all of my requirements. Thank you Nicola and thank you Cherry Professional!"
Candidate - Nottingham
"Gareth feels like a mate rather than a recruiter. He's always there to give advice, to listen and basically to help. I trust him completely and know when he calls me the role will be one I will be interested in as he has taken the time to understand what I want. It sounds simple and should be, but not many recruiters do it - that's what sets Cherry apart from other agencies."
Claire - Client, Derby
"Georgia was a huge help in finding us a replacement quickly. The position we had advertised was not an easy recruit and a very business specific role and so was great that Georgia helped find a suitable candidate. Georgia was a new contact to us and made every effort to understand us as a business, the culture and type of candidates that would instantly fit it."
Simon - Client, Derby
"Kerry has helped our company immeasurably in the last few weeks. She has taken the time to listen to our needs, discuss appropriate candidates and work on placements coming into a difficult environment. The dialogue between Kerry and me has been professional, friendly and frank, which is exactly what I could have wished for from a recruitment consultant. She has been able to deliver on her promises often at very short notice, which is commendable. I'm sure we will be utilising your company again in the near future and do not hesitate to recommend Kerry."
Chloe - Candidate, Nottingham
"Couldn't be more impressed with the entire recruitment process with Cherry. I dealt with Robert Clarke who is truly exceptional, I was listened to fully and supported through every step of the process and as a result I feel that I can say with confidence I have made the right choice. I would highly recommend them to anyone"
Robert - Candidate, Nottingham
"I have used Cherry for the last 5 years for both personal and employee recruitment purposes. I have always been very impressed with the candidates that they have selected for me, the roles that I have been put forward for and the professional, dedicated and friendly staff that work there. I have had the pleasure of dealing with Rob and Gareth for a number of years and I could not be happier with the working relationship that we have developed. They took the time to understand my needs for my new role and they couldn’t have found me a more perfect role."
Sarah - Candidate, Derby
"My experience with Cherry Professional has been truly exceptional. Ross Hillman has been an absolute pleasure to deal with throughout the process and his support and dedication to securing the perfect outcome for his candidates and employers is so apparent. He was extremely receptive and really sought to understand both what I was looking for in a new role but also me as an individual - so much so, that I was offered and accepted the only job I ultimately interviewed for in the very same day! I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone who may be looking for their next career move."
Angela - Candidate, Derby
"Cherry Professional are the best head and shoulders above the rest in the recruitment industry! Kerry has known me for 2yrs plus and I feel she has the best professional approach with my skills/experience at heart when she deems me suitable for a role she has available or just simply calls to find out how I am for work. Whenever I have wanted to find my next role Kerry is my No.1 go to all the time. Her professionalism is outstanding, obviously having applied for roles with other agencies other than Cherry Professional the other agencies lack candidate service skills and don’t deliver. All other agencies should learn from this review and smarten up!!"
Debbie - Candidate, Derby
"I had been in my previous position for 22 years so very out of the job market, I met with both Kerry and Georgia and they boosted my confidence. Georgia checked in with me both before and after my interviews and I can’t thank her and Cherry Professionals enough – I have now secured a fantastic new position."
Jade - Candidate, Derby
"Georgia was fabulous through the whole process, extremely supportive during and after interview stage and even after I was offered the role. She gave enough information for me to feel confident during the interview and made sure all my queries were answered at all times. It was nice to have the support throughout and not just prior to interview stage, really appreciate the efforts and will highly recommend her as a representative to my friends and family in the future."
Jacqueline - Candidate, Nottingham
"From my first initial meeting with Nicola I was put very much at ease, as interviews are not my strong point. I then met with and worked with Claire, who was fantastic, she let me know that when I registered in July, that July and August would be very slow months to find work and that when September arrived there would be lots of offers flooding in, and sure enough Claire was correct as not only did I secure an interview through Claire, but I also managed to land the job as well. So all in all I cannot thank Claire and the team at Cherry Professional enough for all their hard work and dedication in helping me secure a full time, permanent position. I would highly recommend Claire, Nicola and the rest of the team at Cherry Professional. Thank you all so much."
Suzanna - Client, Derby
"Cherry Professional is an extremely professional organisation with a team of great people who are genuinely dedicated and committed to understanding the needs of their clients. Then, having the expertise to find and match the right person, with the necessary skills and experience, to support the client really well. I have been consistently impressed by everyone that Cherry Professional has provided and would highly recommend their service. Quality people, every time!"
Samantha - Candidate, Nottingham
"Nicola contacted me with a job that suited my abilities. I found her helpful, informative and professional and was on call if I needed any additional help. She put my mind at rest and helped me with any further questions I had. I got the job! Thank you for all your help and support Nicola Freeman!"
Andrew - Candidate, Nottingham
"The service Cherry provide is the best by any agency by far. They really make you feel like an individual by really trying to find you the role that suits you - it isn’t a blanket email of any job kind of service. Ben Love is great at his job. He understands what you want & really tries to find that role for you. Cherry have helped to find me 2 great jobs & I have recommended them to many people."
Kate - Candidate - Derby
"From submitting my CV for a role to being made an offer of employment took 4 working days, and that was only because I was unavailable for interview for the first 2 days. Ross, my consultant, was straight on the phone to have a chat about the role I applied for, as well as other potential positions and companies I might be interested in. He had obviously worked closely with the person advertising the position I had applied for and gave me a lot of background information before interview which put me at ease. Communication was excellent and included a video chat with him as we did not have time to meet up in person, which is their preferred option. If I am ever looking for another job Cherry Professional will be my first call."
Simon - Client - Nottingham
"Tom excelled. We had a few conversations at the start to ensure we both knew what the requirements were. Once we got over these discussions I am delighted with Tom's approach and was even willing to challenge my rationale, which he was right to do. The result is that we have the right person in our organisation - thanks to Tom and Cherry Professional."
Laura - Client - Derby
"Having been both a candidate and a client of Georgia Johnson at Cherry Professional I have been very impressed with her and the service level I have received. Both the candidate experience and the client experience is second to none. Georgia listens to what we need as a business and she works fast and always sends me quality candidates. Georgia knows what we / I like now and I trust her to find me the candidates right for the role the first time without me having to even reach out to other agencies!! Georgia's strength is her communication and honesty - She keeps me up to date with how she is getting on and that is key for me as I haven't got time to be chasing people. I love how she gets excited about candidates too - her energy rubs off on me and I equally get excited about meeting her candidates. I highly recommend Georgia and Cherry Professional as both a candidate and a client!!"
Charlotte - Candidate - Derby
"Very happy with the service and help provided by Cherry. In less than a week of applying for a job I was offered a position. I have never used a recruitment agency before and was very impressed with the quality and professional service/ help provided by the staff. Kerry in particular was really helpful and answered any queries I had in detail. Would definitely recommend Cherry Professional to others!!"
Rebecca - Candidate - Nottingham
"I am very grateful that Cherry Professional was recommended to me as a recruitment agent. After not having had an interview for several years getting back into work seemed a very daunting task, but after being helped and encouraged by Nicola at Cherry I have been able to find and been offered a great job opportunity that works around my busy family life"
Richard - Candidate - Derby
"If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself out of work and are struggling to find a role via the usual means, then I can highly recommended Cherry professional. One consultant in particular being Kerry Metcalf. I could sit here and write a dickins style book with my experience of Kerry, but I’m sure I would run out of superlatives. Trust me when I say, that Kerry is a true “Recruitment Consultant” and went to every effort to assist me in finding my next role with minimal effort of my behalf. In the world of recruitment, which is heavily saturated, Cherry and Kerry in my experience are head and shoulders above the majority of other providers, and would not hesitate in using them again. Simply, they were fantastic and will look forward to keeping my professional rapport with them throughout my career. Massive thanks Kerry, you’re a star!"
Rosemary - Client - Derby
"Everything was turned around extremely quickly, both candidates provided were of a great standard and Georgia was easy to contact and communicate with. Very impressed with Cherry, wouldn't normally consider for scheduling vacancies (usually finance) but have quickly proved versatility in another area - well done."
Angela - Candidate - Derby
"Kerry has always been my first port of call when I've finished work and really need to get into another role. She doesn't disappoint, is thorough in what she does and I have had the pleasure in doing temporary assignments three times now over the past couple of years. Being a recruitment resourcer myself, Kerry does as I do.... cares for the candidate from start to finish, crosses all the t's and dots every i."
Claudi - Candidate and Client - Nottingham
"This is the 2nd position that I got via Cherry and both times the service provided has been exceptional. Nicola was friendly and very professional and went out of her way to accommodate my needs. I also used Cherry before when I needed staff myself and again I was extremely happy with the service provided."
Stacey - Candidate - Derby
"When looking for a job I didn't actually have any intention of going through a recruitment agency, but I came across the perfect position advertised by Cherry. I was contacted the following day after applying, and Georgia who has handled my application from start to end was extremely helpful and kept me updated throughout the process, from interview to job offer.

"I found Cherry Professional and in particular Georgia Johnson to be professional, informative and accessible, taking the time to get to know my needs and wants from a role and corresponding with me with appropriate roles, a refreshing change from other recruiters I have worked with in the past. During my years working in the NHS I was governed to use recruiters on our "preferred list" an experience unfortunately was nothing like the dealings I have had with Cherry, making the task of getting someone for a specific role even more difficult and time wasting. Thank you Georgia, keep up the good work, you really are so much better than many of your competitors."

Georgia always kept me informed and couldn't be more helpful, especially appreciated her time to see how I got on through every stage!"
