Technology:

Arrows Group have supported us over the past few years in a number of ways. We have been growing fast and our need for highly skilled, Agile technologists has been significant and Arrows Group have been able to demonstrate a deep understanding of this niche area and deliver the staff we needed often when up against tight timescales. At the beginning, during our peak requirement times the AG team introduced a weekly ‘Surgery Hour’ that was effective at streamlining our and controlling our recruitment processes and allowing all issues to be dealt with face to face every Friday at 10am. Arrows Group are an innovative and trusted supplier to the business and they played an important part in the growth of our technology business over the past few years”

“Arrows Group have played an important part in the expansion of INGG by ensuring we always had access to and have been attracting the best possible technologists to the Company. Technology plays a key role within our business and really forms the platform from which we operate and interact with our customers. We set very high standards internally and Arrows Group have actively supported this and enabled us to maintain these levels throughout our various growth phases. Over and above the recruiting of new staff for us, Arrows Group have served as a genuine partner to the business by being experts in their market, providing accurate market intelligence, understanding our business and ensuring we are positioned correctly to attract the best staff possible. As we continue to grow we will rely on Arrows Group to continue to play an important role helping us achieve our goals.

I’ve been working with Arrows for just over a year now in the software development sector. Arrows have been at the forefront of my recruitment strategy, simply because their agents completely understand the market in terms of what I am recruiting for in Agile software development. By investing in the community, in particular with the Agile Evangelists quarterly meets, Arrows are completely in touch with trends and technology, but most importantly, people. This totally gives them an advantage. I’ve used them, not solely either, when recruiting for Developer, QA Engineer, ScrumMaster / PM and Product Owner / Business Analyst roles and I consistently find Arrows candidates on shortlists. In March this year, I had a two Business Analyst vacancies, for which Arrows presented 4 candidates; I would have hired them all. These were specialist candidates, so having the luxury of 4 candidates for 2 roles allowed the team to select the right personalities and complete the whole CV to offer process in 1 WEEK! Now that’s what I call a good service.

Insurance:

“Arrows Group is one of the most consistent recruitment agencies I have used during my career. The quality of the candidates they supply is generally superb, the turnaround time quick and the preparation of each candidate excellent. I also find that the consultants’ knowledge of the industry is very impressive. I would thoroughly recommend Arrows Group to anyone looking to recruit staff within the Insurance Market.”
