WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“I’d been looking for the right person for half a year and wasn’t getting anywhere. It was taking too much of my time, and the quality of applicants just wasn’t there. We use GCS for other recruitment requirements, and I thought I would trial SmartHire. It was a game-changer compared to our standard advertising campaigns and a real time-saver. They wrote new job adverts, and the candidates were already well-matched to the role. Within 10 working days I had interviewed x4 candidates and filled the role. I’d definitely use this service again—it was faster, easier, and far more cost-effective.”

Branch Manager, National Plumbers Merchant

“Our business, like most, had been struggling with recruiting Class 2 HIAB drivers. Our own advertising just wasn’t delivering the results, so we engaged with GCS on their SmartHire Bronze service. The first candidate we were given, I interviewed and offered within the week. It was a quick and effective service that saved me £4,500 in agency fees. Will certainly be using this again”

Branch Manager, Leading Independent Builders Merchants

“This month, two of my Branch Managers have recently used GCS SmartHire for a Warehouse Supervisor and a Sales Assistant role. Had we used another agency, this would have cost in excess of £9,000. We filled both roles via GCS for a combined total of £1,600.”
