Candidate testimonials

My experience with Optimum IT has always been professional, with an added personal touch in their dealings and I am really impressed with the way they have placed me. I have to say that you have been by far the most helpful and active of all the people and agencies that I have had contact with. My consultants have always been very proactive and market aware and were able to identify my potential which led to me being placed on two separate consultant assignments in two of the largest investment banks in the world which will be coming up to two years in a few weeks. Many thanks and praise to all your team at Optimum IT for all your help and I look forward to working with you in the future.


I was looking for an agency that would be responsive and willing to listen to my personal requirements. Optimum IT was recommended to me by an associate whom I had known for many years. From the outset Optimum were flexible and professional and the whole process was handled in a timely and effective manner. Optimum continued to provide a personal level of service throughout my contract and wished me every success in my new role.


I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Optimum IT. They have always been professional, courteous and quick to help. They have an in-depth understanding of IT and have had no problems matching my skills with potential roles. As an agency they have been flexible and timely payers. My consultant has always kept in touch during my contracts to ensure everything is going well.


For a couple of years I had been looking, without much success, to find a challenging, well paid job at a progressive company in Scotland. I was recommended to try Optimum IT by a friend and found their competent attitude to matching candidates and positions to be a breath of fresh air. They are one of the few agencies I have used that doesn’t seem to use the scattergun approach or the CV keyword search, but genuinely try to help the candidate right through the recruitment process. I was soon up for interviews and was very quickly offered an excellent technical role, where I am still happily employed.


Thank you for all your efforts to secure me a contract over the last few months. Your agency is a credit to the industry and I won’t hesitate to recommend you to any contractors who are looking.
