"ES2 People, through Melanie Russell, made the whole change of jobs completely seamless. Melanie took time to meet me right at the start to better understand my capabilities and ensure my skills completely matched the role she proposed I apply for. Melanie also ensured I had properly prepared for the interview stage, highlighting specific aspects of importance to the employer.
