      I have worked with The Recruitment Consultancy for several years and one of the key differences they offer is that they prioritise understanding your business and the exact skills/experience match, whether it be temporary or permanent. It is really helpful being able to work closely with an agency who research your needs as a client, so thoroughly, and are able to provide high-calibre candidates.
