My experience with Spotlight was fantastic from the beginning and I could not recommend Sam any higher. From the initial application Sam was proactive and involved, giving great interview feedback.

She made the whole process less stressed and more focused mentally and practically by acting as an everyday advisor.Millie was there to keep me updated on any changes and encourage me before an interview.I have no words to express my gratitude for Georgia and Millie. It was the first time in my life that I had looked for a job, and I wasn't stressed. They kept me calm, and I could focus on the process and dig into the role.For 1M time, Thank you both of you for your time and devotion :)

Recently worked with Spotlight to make a senior appointment to our Leadership Team, following an unsuccessful round of interviews. Angela and the team were great to work with, listened carefully to the needs of the business and team and were agile to respond to feedback on candidates.

I would like to thank very much Abi, Millie and the team for helping me finding a new second position in Marketing. After having reviewed my CV, Abi sent me an email and put me in contact with a good company very quickly. The recruitment process was extremely smooth, easy and fast (only 3 weeks to get the job) and the girls are very professional. I couldn't recommend better Spotlight recruitment to anyone looking for a new position and boost in their career.

Mackenzie Bianco

15:40 16 Aug 21

Shortly after I started thinking about the ever-dreaded job hunt, I opened my LinkedIn to offers from recruiters. I wasn’t actively searching or applying except to a few select roles. I was pleasantly surprised by an InMail from Carly at Spotlight about an interesting job role which was remotely based, but being that their head office is in London, wasn’t a role I’d have found on my own. It turned out to have everything I was searching for in my career advancement and goals and better yet, with an excellent charity that offers a great service.Carly streamlined the whole process, taking all of the stress out my application and interview process. She was prompt and professional in returning calls and emails and offered excellent advice that ultimately helped me land the job. Better yet, because Spotlight caters to marketers, it seems she had an uncanny ability to perfectly match my skills and aspirations to the role.I feel very fortunate and grateful to have had Carly reach out and to work with the Spotlight team.

Daniel Rigby

14:09 16 Aug 21

I was headhunted by Carly through LinkedIN which was total suprise to me. I thought my profile was pretty weak but Carly reassured me that it was a perfect fit for the client she headhunted me for. Turns out, she was completely right! I got hired and now I'm starting my dream job in a company I would never of found without the help of Carly (and spotlight). Such a professional team of people who strive to do the best they can to fit you with the perfect client. I couldn't be more happier with my experience, thankyou again Carly- you deserve a promotion! By the way, love the Canadian accent, my heart was melting the whole time haha :)

Everyone has been a real pleasure to talk with, responsive, friendly and endlessly helpful. Thank you so much for getting in contact with me initially, and for all your help.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Camilla Gambari was my star recruiter, from start to finish the advice and service received was phenomenal. Camilla reassured me how perfect I was for the position and made sure I was fully prepared for my interview. Although I was a bit late for the interview due to train delays, Camilla kept me motivated and said it would all be okay! And she was so right because I got my dream job! Even afterwards she kept on checking to ensure I was okay... I can’t thank her enough. You certainly found a winner Spotlight Recruitment, and eventhough she’s no longer with you, it certainly shows how excellent the company is at selecting amazing employees. Victoria x

Luke Redman

15:22 31 Jan 19

We used Spotlight alongside another marketing recruitment company to hire a new marketing manager. The person we hired was presented by Spotlight. The difference between Spotlight and the other recruiter was the level of service and how well Spotlight understood our business, culture, personalities and what we were looking for. The candidates presented by spotlight were all exactly what we briefed them for. I could not be happier with the service from Katie and Spotlight.Thank you very much.Kind RegardsLuke

Andy Pearson

07:51 31 Jan 19

Spotlight contacted me about a role about a month ago, and I recently received an offer from that job. I've worked with a few recruitment agencies over the last few months and some have been really unprofessional and disorganised.Spotlight however have been so friendly and helpful, they're just what I wanted from a recruitment agency. Even when I didn't think my interviews went very well they were really encouraging. They even went above and beyond when my train to London for the interview was severely delayed and they offered for me to come and get changed into a suit in their offices!!Thanks again, Spotlight :)

Stefania Costa

09:41 03 Dec 18

I highly recommend Spotlight Recruitment, they provided me with a wonderful experience. My point of contact was Angela and I cannot praise enough how supportive and professional she is. Applying for jobs and going through the selection and interview process can be stressful, but Angela made the process stress-free by keeping me updated and touching base regularly with me. Wishing me luck before my interview was also a very nice touch! I recommend Angela and the rest of the team for your recruitment needs: thank you Angela and team, you have truly been amazing!

Irfan Qureshi

15:47 12 Sep 18
