Typical shortlist turnaround

"As a South African company recruiting for a position in the UK, we were a little hesitant employing an unknown recruitment agency so far away — but it's a decision we now pat ourselves on the back for. Quick to understand the brief, Nolan's were professional, thorough and responsive, providing continuous feedback throughout the process of recruiting for a difficult role with somewhat unusual specs."
