Testimonials

What They Say About Us

{

I spoke to Jim from CleanTech Talent on several occasions as I have been trying to change my career and had made my CV available for various recruiters to find. From the point of someone looking for a new role, I would say I am impressed that he took a note of the type of career development I am aiming for and would only contact me if something was a match, and with high probability of proceeding to an interview. This is something very important for me as due to busy family life right now I have very little time available to search for opportunities. Businesses looking to work with CleanTech Talent will definitely benefit from quick, open and honest communication, and will be sure that any feedback will be provided back to the applicants in a timely manner.

Daniel has been sourcing candidates for a range of Engineering and Software roles within Europe. The roles require highly skilled and competent professionals.  

We have been very pleased with the quailty of candidates Daniel has put forward. He is highly professional in his dealings and understands the nature of our business, which enables him to represent us to candidates appropriately and accurately.

Jim helped me on every step of the way on my recruitment journey. He understood my needs and made sure to find the company that matched them perfectly. A call with Jim never felt like a recruitment call but a friendly chat with a friend who genuinely wants to see me succeed, making the whole process so rewarding for me. I would recommend him for any of your recruitment needs.

CleanTech Talent & Hannah were very helpful, personable and attentive when it came to aiding me as a candidate through the recruitment process. They were able to work out a good offer and suitable arrangement between myself and the employer, respecting my needs for work/life balance and demonstrating a desire to achieve the best balance for everyone. I would highly recommend them and am confident that they will continue to find the right people for the right roles.

I was on the lookout for a job when Jim popped into my inbox. I’m normally dubious of these people that message promising the earth and I’d usually give them short shrift. However, for whatever reason, I gave Jim my number and he gave me a call. He turned out to be a really likeable character and we chatted about life in general and what we were both up to. I put the phone down thinking “what a nice bloke”. Over the next few days we spoke several times and Jim helped me tailor my CV and covering email to target certain companies. I secured three interviews (one I found by myself) and was offered all three jobs. The two jobs Jim found me were for a lot more (6 grand!) a year than my salary at that time, with a position a step up the ladder with companies offering exactly what I was after: work/life balance, training and room for progression. I am now really happy (and excited) in my new role. So, if you’re thinking about a new job, seek Jim out, or if he slips into your inbox, don’t dismiss him. Message back sharpish. I cannot recommend Jim highly enough. I really can’t. Thanks Jim!

Working with Hannah has been a pleasure, but unlike the normal route, got approached->discovery call->got introduced->interviews-> Offer, my journey was a bit different. Hannah spoke to me back in May and I politely turned down the opportunity. I think her professionalism drove her to approach me again after a couple of months and supported me all the way to the final offer. My confidence, expectations were greatly boosted by her and finally I joined the company she introduced me to and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Hannah and the team for your dedicated support!

A recruiter who will strive to listen first and find the best fit for not only your skillset and career goals but also your personality. I recently secured a role through Jim and the team at Clean Tech Talent and would highly recommend them for their professional and efficient service. An interview was organised within a couple of weeks of getting in touch, support was provided every step of the way (including interview preparation and advice on trends in the current market), and in particular they excelled in communication by keeping me updated throughout the process. A great experience and I’m very grateful to Jim for all his help. Highly recommended!
