I met with Charlotte Bell in June 2011 at a mutually convenient date and time. I found Charlotte to be very friendly with a can do attitude. She was very thorough in going through my qualifications and experience and finding out what I wanted through Bell Cornwall.

Charlotte regularly kept in touch to inform me of what was happening and any up and coming vacancies. Charlotte had arranged an interview for me within 2-3 weeks, which was exactly what I was looking for and I was offered the position after a second interview in which I accepted.

Obviously, I was very pleased with the service provided to me, and found it to be better than any I had received from previous agencies I had gone through. I have no hesitation in recommending Belt Cornwall to friends/colleagues.

Many thanks for the chocolates & the Good Luck card – it is a very thoughtful gesture and much appreciated.
 
May I also take this opportunity to thank you in all that you have done in finding me my great new job. Having been through quite a few different recruitment agencies in the past I can honestly say that yourself & Bell Cornwall completely exceeded all my expectations by far. In everything from first meeting me conveniently & discreetly on my lunch break to personally go through my CV, to finding me the perfect job and helping me through every step of the way with constant updates & help in every interview stage. It’s the little things that count and Bell Cornwall most definitely portrayed this. Bell Cornwall is a fantastic company with brilliant staff who have helped me find a great new job/career and I have and will continue to recommend you to everyone that I know.
 
Once again; Many thanks for all your help.

"The quality of service, commitment and support at Bell Cornwall is first-class. Having had very mixed (and largely unproductive) experiences with other agencies, I did wonder whether it was worth driving over for a meeting in person with Charlotte - it was. Within a couple of weeks I had an offer for a good role/organisation, as part of a team that reflected my personality well. I was also impressed by the follow-up call to check things were going fine, and the proactive contact throughout. Bell Cornwall will definitely be at the top of my list when I am next looking for suitable employment."

I'd spent many years temping with an agency until I came across Bell Cornwall Associates. An initial interview with Charlotte Bell however, changed everything, and resulted in me having the self belief and confidence to to take on something much more beneficial and challenging. I'd felt so unfulfilled in previous roles and knew it was time to put my experience, skills and degree to good use. I craved the opportunity to assist creatively and work towards writing for a living. After taking the time to listen and get to the bottom of where I wanted to take my career, Charlotte and Jeremy took me on in-house as a copywriter to do the copy for their new website. I worked for a month with the team and genuinely loved every single day, liaising with the web developer and assisting with the marketing campaign alongside the writing side of things.

They had seen something in me and gave me the long overdue chance to prove myself. After completing this placement with them, Charlotte then approached me with a position with esteemed firm 'Higgs & Sons' a few months later. I was offered the permanent role after an initial interview and have since been working as the firm's Events and Marketing Business Services Assistant. It's hard to explain exactly what BCA  does. They seem to have the gift to really get to the roots of what an individual is about and the expertise and contacts to know how to take it further. I have the job of my dreams thanks to them and I'm eternally grateful for the many opportunities they've given me. They believed in me when nobody else did and unlike so many others, have the goods to back it up.

Thank you for the gift and card. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Louise and the team for all your efforts in securing me a position. Bell Cornwall are by far the best agency I have dealt with.

 Thanks again Louise for all her efforts in obtaining interviews for me and keeping me up to speed every step of the way, this speaks volumes, and if I ever find myself in this position again there is only one place I would go! Thanks again.

 Liam

Just wanted to offer many thanks to you for all your help over the last 6 months!

From the first point of contact regarding a temporary placement, to the continual support and feedback throughout my time in the role I have found everyone, and in particular Gemma, highly professional. It has also been fantastic to encounter a recruitment agency that is genuinely concerned with my personal development and understands my needs - the whole experience has been a pleasure!

I'm so pleased to have found a permanent role now, but should I ever move into the Birmingham area I will definitely be in touch!

Thank you again for everything!

Siobhan

Thank you so very much for the chocolates but an extra special thank you for the card. It has taken pride of place on my desk. It was such a lovely surprise and completely unexpected. I need no thanks at all, the thanks goes to you guys!
 
I don't think I could ever truly express how grateful I am for the opportunity Bell Cornwall gave me. I was so massively relieved to be out working again. The relief I felt when you said you had two weeks work was just enormous. Still can't believe, 13 weeks later I am still here.
 
It isn't just that though, its your support with questions and Poonam has been amazing with my timesheet queries and my queries about my queries. Massive thanks to Louise too who was completely lovely when I was faced with having to decide between a job offer elsewhere and a "possible" job offer here. I was completely confused and she was such a star and made the whole decision making process about a million times easier for me just by being her and getting the facts for me so that I was more informed (totally above and beyond the call of duty).
 
I could go on all day but I wont, thanks once again Gemma and to all of you. I tell the world how great Bell Cornwall are and will continue to do so.... I look forward to working with you all again come October when my contract finishes.

Kate

Thank you Bell Cornwall for helping me find such a perfect position so quickly. Your company went above and beyond what I would expect from an agency, and I can't thank you enough for staying back to see me so late in the evening to ensure I could apply for the position you were advertising.
 
Charlotte you made me feel comfortable and at ease, I can't thank you enough. I felt you really listened to what I wanted, and my wishes were as important to you as they were to me.  I also appreciate the fact you called me so regularly with updates.  I will have no hesitation recommending you to friends and family members.
 
I wish you all the best for the future.

Tammy

From the first instance of contact, I have been entirely impressed. Meeting with Gemma and Jeremy on my first visit to the premises, was exemplary of the different approach, I know you look to extend to candidates, and clients alike. The questions asked of me, and the manner in which they were asked, displayed the level of 'commitment to the cause' I am now accustomed to! The personal approach is one which sets you apart from other agencies I have come into contact with. I have been surprised and utterly grateful, for the consistent level of industry in finding me; not only a job I was capable of, but one I would be happy and motivated in, with long-term possibilities.
 
I extend my express gratitude to Louise Kendall in particular: along with you both. She has been energetic, thoughtful and excited throughout the process, and it has not gone un-noticed. In an uncertain set of circumstances, such as mine (!), it has been fantastic to talk with someone who understood my requirements exactly and provide opportunities for me. I include all three of you here, of course.
 
I have no hesitation whatsoever, in recommending Bell Cornwall Assoc. to colleagues and friends alike, who may benefit from your expertise in future. I have been very proud to represent you at all the interviews I have been to and I very much hope; in the best way possible of course, to have need to meet with you again in the coming years.
 
I have been told on numerous occasions over the last few months, that it is extremely difficult to find a 'decent' recruitment agency. Thankfully, you have not only proven them wrong, but surpassed expectation.
 
As you are aware, I now have a permanent contract with an International Corporate company; thanks particularly to you Charlotte. Not only is it a fantastic company to work within, but the possibilities of progression mean that I hope to be with National Express for a number of years. Jeremy, I'm sure you will agree that I wasn't sure, at all, what I wanted to get out of this process! However, Bell Cornwall seem to have provided me with exactly what I needed.
 
I'm sure many of your candidates mention that you have changed their lives for the better; I reiterate the sentiment.

Alex

From the initial stages with Louise, I can’t say how impressed I was with the level of service I received. I've never been to an agency who call you in, set aside time to really get to know an applicant and establish what they are looking for to get that perfect match. Louise, you really are an asset to the agency. You always kept me informed, called without being prompted to get updates etc. I was really touched when you called after my first day to ask how it went - that’s unheard of these days. You have a great personality and nothings ever to much trouble. I'm only young, but I've never seen that level of customer care anywhere before. Great job.

Jeremy and Charlotte, thanks to both of you for all your help with the job hunt. I've really appreciated you both keeping me updated and really taking the time to listen to feedback and organising interviews.
I wouldn’t hesitate to refer you to other people based on your brilliant performance and ability to really listen to candidates and ensure assignments are best suited to them.
You've all been fantastic!

Many thanks

“The time spent with your company was a delightful experience. From arriving and being greeted, made to feel welcome and well informed. Jeremy was fantastic, he actively listened to everything I said and was extremely optimistic about my future prospects.

Bell Cornwall was everything I expected and I would recommend their services to anyone who asked thank you.”

Steven

“Just wanted to say thank you and Bell Cornwall for helping me find a placement, I`m very much looking forward to returning to work and especially with the Media Arts team.”

James

“I would like to thank Bell Cornwall for offering such an indispensable service. The whole team offered a fantastic support network, a great deal of enthusiasm and realistic solutions which enabled me to feel confident in my abilities to go out and tackle the job market head on, successfully. The personal touch that they add to the recruitment process is unmatched by any other agency in my previous experience. After a thorough and pleasant interview with several of the team members, they ascertained exactly what I was looking for and what would be best suited to my needs and aspirations. Needless to say within a fortnight of registering with Bell Cornwall I have just begun working in a law firm and I absolutely love it – I didn’t imagine the process would be quite so speedy so I am thrilled with the efficiency of the firm, but also with the way they have been so consistently encouraging and inspiring at every step.

I am so grateful to all the team members who have been an absolute pleasure to deal with. Without Bell Cornwall’s help I would not be on my way towards a career I cannot wait to begin – and law, even with qualifying a degree is an extremely hard area to crack. I would like to thank particularly, Charlotte and Louise – both have eased my transition out of University and into a job which will open doors in my future career path, and actually I’ll miss talking to them now I have my dream job!”

Lauren

“When I decided to make the move from London to Birmingham I was delighted to meet an agency as helpful and friendly as Bell Cornwall Associates. From my first interview with Charlotte I felt the company understood me and the role I was hoping to find. I was not pushed to look at jobs that were not right, nor was I just ignored. Charlotte, Jeremy and the rest of the team were very helpful during my long interview process and provided guidance and support when needed. I felt like their most important client throughout the whole process as one of the team was always available if needed, even out of normal office hours. I am thrilled with the role I have secured through the company and would recommend Bell Cornwall to anyone. Thank you!”

Once again I would like to thank everyone at Bell Cornwall for all your help and support.”

Rachel

“I have used many recruitment agencies in the past, but in the future there will only be one I'll use or recommend to friends. Charlotte was not only thoroughly professional, but also supportive and understanding of how stressful looking for that perfect job can be. I am about to start what is not only a really exciting job, but hopefully a fantastic career.”

Sally
Events Manager

“Looking for the next step in your career is a very exciting but anxious time. You want to make sure that you have the right people helping you along in the right direction. With Bell Cornwall I never felt like I was being pushed into a job that didn't fit me. They were able to match my personality, my skills and my ambitions to find a position that wasn't going to be 'just another job', but one that is going to help propel my career forwards in the direction that I want to go.”

Sarah

“Just wanted to say a huge thank you for helping me find my ideal role. You are by far the best agency I have used, both in your professionalism and the manner in which you all took the time to find out about me and the kind or role I was looking for. This role could have been written for me in terms of how well my skills and past experience match the role......I cannot thank you enough.

I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone and would certainly use your services again should the need ever arise.”

Jan

“I went to several recruitment agencies whilst looking for a job and Bell Cornwall was the only one which made me feel valued as a real person rather than just a statistic. The advice I received following my interview was genuine and helpful and I am absolutely certain that it directly contributed to me getting the next job I applied for. Thank you!”

Nicola

I have registered with many Recruitment Agencies in the past but found Bell Cornwall Associates to be a very friendly, efficient and highly professional team, and I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them if you are seeking to further your career.

I would like to thank everyone for their help, but in particular a big thank you to Jeremy, who has given me a great start to 2008!”

Sarah

They took the trouble to get to know me through an in-depth interview, going through my CV. With a better understanding of myself and my employment needs, they were able to match me with an employer who was the most suitable. Bell Cornwall always replied promptly to phone calls and emails. They were very supportive and encouraging when arranging interviews with prospective employers, giving advice and tips on attending interviews and were interested to know how the interview went.

I would highly recommend them to anyone who was seeking work.”

I am delighted at this result and can only say 'keep up the good work!'”

Donna

“I found Bell Cornwall to be a very friendly and professional team who put the candidate first. Jeremy took the time to establish what type of role I was looking for and matched my requirements exactly, unlike most recruitment agencies.

After only a week of registering I was delighted to be offered a job through Bell Cornwall with a fantastic company which I accepted. I would recommend Bell Cornwall to anyone looking for a professional agency who listen to the candidate and offer an excellent friendly service”

Sally-Ann

“I've worked with a number of agencies over the years both as a client - and as a candidate, and Bell Cornwall Associates are very responsive and ask lots of questions to find out exactly what you want.

“The service which I received from Bellcornwall was second to none. I have used many recruitment agencies in the past and was a little reluctant to registering with one this time around - well I am glad that I did! Bellcornwall were different they didn’t do the usual ‘I’ll be in touch’ routine and then not contact you again, they actually did get in touch and found me a fantastic position, they were friendly, efficient and honest and would recommend them to anyone who is serious about their career.”

Sam

Selba

“I had got to the position in life where I wished to take a step back from a job that involved a high level of stress and responsibility. After some thought I contacted Bell Cornwall Associates and told Jeremy my work requirements.

I found Bell Cornwall Associates very understanding and sympathetic to my needs. Fortunately for me Bell Cornwall Associates were able to place me in a suitable position within a very short time. Based on this I can fully endorse Bell Cornwall Associates as a good operator.”

Tony
Senior Administrator

“From day one I was extremely impressed with how proactive Bell Cornwall Associates were in finding me an alternative permanent position. Having been registered with a number of different agencies Bell Cornwall Associates came out tops; so much so I recommended them to my former employer to help find my replacement. A big thank you Jeremy, I've got the job I wanted with a fantastic firm.”

Tania
Senior PA

“The initial interview was thorough; Charlotte really took the time to understand my background and skills to get a clear picture of what I was looking for in my next position. Crucially, I felt I had Charlotte’s full support during the application process and am confident that her role in selling me as a candidate was key in securing my job offer.

I was given thorough information prior to each interview including a full job description and background on the interviewer and was provided with prompt and honest feedback after interviews. I was never unsure of the status of my application thanks to regular updates from Charlotte who was available at all times – even setting up an interview for me on a bank holiday!

I would not hesitate to recommend Bell Cornwall Associates to anyone in search of their next career move.”

At my initial interview with Charlotte I was very re-assured by the highly professional service that was being offered to me. By going through my past history of jobs and education, I felt that I was being listened to and was not just another candidate who was coming through the door.

As things were, I was put forward for a job that afternoon and was working the next day. Even though it was an temporary placement, I was offered a permanent job within two weeks of working with the company.

Thanks to the Bell Cornwall Associates team for all your help.”

“On arrival at the offices at Bell Cornwall Associates, Charlotte was extremely welcoming and the company offered a very genuine and positive feel to it. The level of services that Bell Cornwall Associates offered to me were of a very high quality and throughout the recruitment process they were very helpful indeed . Essentially, without the services of Bell Cornwall Associates I would not have secured the perfect role that could open many opportunities for me. Thanks very much!”

Having worked in a recruitment background before I know how I would want someone to handle my next job move from search to placement – and they certainly lived up to my expectations.

Antony

“Charlotte and Jeremy were simply fantastic in all respects of the service I received. From the initial meeting to the day I was offered a job, the contact and professionalism was second to none. I had been looking for a position for a long time, and when I was contacted about a position that I didn’t directly apply for, there was already a positive feeling!

The support and confidence, along with the personalised service I received was superb. This certainly gave me confidence going into my interviews, as I felt I was applying for the right role for me...and I got the job!

Top marks to all at Bell Cornwall, and thanks for giving me the chance to get my life moving again!

Thank you so much again.”
