"First time using recruitment and it was amazing. Kayleigh literally secured me an interview for a fantastic company and gave me news of the job offer within one week! Kayleigh is such a lovely person and really does go the extra mile to help. Her communication couldn’t be faulted as she kept me in the loop of things as it progressed and she always called/emailed when she said she would! I would definitely recommend LCA jobs as they really do fulfil expectations."
