I had a wonderful experience with Vanrath. Everything from the moment I called to inquire about a role I seen advertised, the preparation for the interview and the preparation before joining the new role have exceeded my expectations
Jsck was amazing managing my job application process for a senior role last April. I got my current job because of him and I am super thankful. During the process, he gave great advice on how to approach the interview with my now employer (IE. STAR approach). His advice to use the star approach inspired me to fully prepare for my job interview. It was a tough interview but I felt that his tips and advice have guided me through my interview preparation. I never met him in person and our communication was through calls and emails, however when speaking to him on the phone his tone of voice was clear and I believe he communicated his points across very well. He was easy to work with and was quickly responsive to emails/calls.
I would highly recommend Vanrath. Specifically Jack, who I found to be thoroughly helpful, informative and efficient from first point of contact. Within a week of sending my CV I had interviewed and received an offer for a new role. Michael provided support and guidance throughout the entirety of the process, from interview advice to follow up calls, ultimately helping me to make the decision.
