    "We started using Blackpoint Recruitment during the pandemic and found them to be very helpful and professional. At a time when other companies were not even responding to our calls due to demand, Blackpoint kept us in the loop of the current recruitment market and was able to supply good quality staff. My main reasons to continually work with Blackpoint was not just to find staff to put in positions but to work with us and understand our business so the staff put forward were right for the job. Blackpoint is currently our main supplier for staff on a temp to perm for the above reason. We have a fantastic working relationship between us and very happy to continually work with them. Would recommend it to any business looking for staff on either a temp or temp to perm basis."

    Candidate

    "I haven't had much success with agencies in the past. Mainly false promises & sheer nonsense has been the only thing my timesheets have seen. I sent my CV off to them & they responded the same afternoon by phone & had an interview date set up for me by the end of the same day. I strongly recommend them!
