A professional and thoroughly friendly service that could not tried harder or more successfully to find me a new position
My prior experience with other recruiters had been lacklustre. I can't pinpoint, but the word "impersonal" rings around my head; as if their calls to you were to appear to be working to their bosses. CK Group was genuine. They have clearly earned the trust of their company clients and this is a boon to any candidate; if they think you're good, that'll carry weight with prospective employers. You aren't just another CV blindly fired off to the Big Four. Prior to each interview there was a briefing. Not a generic "top 10 interview tips," but information regarding the temperament, history and ambitions of your interviewer(s). It's impossible to know whether or not I would've landed the job without these briefings. Maybe yes; maybe no. But, if I have the option in the future, I take the briefings every time. Feedback was to-the-point and quick. If your primary contact was out of the office, the baton would be handed off seamlessly. Anonymised approximate details about the sort of competition you are facing is also useful. Full disclosure: I got the role; so you can take that into account, but I would feel the same way about their professionalism and friendliness regardless. I have already since recommended them to a close friend looking to change industry. If you are on the fence about working with them, have a conversation and see if your first impression matches this review.
I recommend the Ck Group because they work very professional. All the time they have given me support and help in my selection process. I'm very satisfied with the opportunity they have given me. Thank you very much to whole CK group team!
Friendly and frequent communication throughout the recruitment process. Thank you CK Group, especially Vicki
The person who was interviewing me was really really supportive with very high level of professionalism guiding me through the whole process. He discovered all my requirements and was able to represent my most relevant skills for the position to the employer. Apart from that he was really nice, pleasant and friendly. Thank you GK Group.
Excellent support throughout the process.
Georgia has been very helpful throughout my involvement with CK. always phones to check up on me and if everything Is ok, and equally always available on the phone if I have any queries.
Great service. Only issue was that there seemed to be the need for all conversations to be on the phone which is very difficult to always make time for or fit into current work. More email communication may have been better.
Excellent service, professional staff.
Very good service
Easy to deal with

I have been very impressed with CK having dealt with them very recently. Vicky Walker, in particular, has a very friendly and professional approach to her work and you know that she enjoys her job and cares about her clientele. Many thanks Vicky, from Robert Hawkins of Dudley.

5 stars, start on monday.
CK Group provided me all the support and help that I needed during my job search.
I was with CK for 2+ years through a number of roles. Lucy Stendall worked extremely hard to find roles best suited for me and was very supportive. She also took time to go through a mock interview with me, which helped to improve my interview technique and was very beneficial. When I was passed over to Russell Oakley, the same great support continued. Russell was always there to guide and support me when needed. He was always happy to help me with any challenging situations. I truly appreciate the support provided and recommend CK's service
Jade was brilliant at sorting me a placement in my first role,in industry and very helpful. The rest of the team were kind and thoughtful, couldn't have asked for much better.
Great service! The recruitment consultant who helped me secure my new role could not have done more to help me. They were helpful and reassuring whilst being professional.
