They thoroughly vet all their candidates in accordance with my needs resulting in the majority of candidates called for interview are suitable for the role, saving me valuable interview time. I would have no hesitation in recommending LJB & Co as they are at the top of their game.
I have used LJB & Co as my preferred agency of choice for almost 10 years. They are a completely ethical and trustworthy organisation with a thorough understanding of the Construction industry and most importantly, of our organisation. I rarely have the need to seek personnel from any other source.
LJB & Co quickly gained an understanding of our requirements by listening to us and taking the time to understand how we work. We get a lot of calls from recruitment companies promising the best candidates on the market and then failing to deliver on those promises however, LJB & Co have always supplied us with good quality candidates.
