Testimonials.

interAct have been a key recruitment partner since 2004. I have worked with both Gareth and in particular Luke from interAct Consulting for over 5 years and throughout this time they have been a pivotal part of helping me to find the right people to join the team. A personal touch is given and they really have taken the time to understand the business, the team's ethos and the sort of people we look for. I feel the drive and energy to find not just anyone but the right person is shared and it's not uncommon to get updates on candidates day or night which I particularly appreciate when the day is busy. The working relationship we maintain is so aligned that it feels very much like a service from an in-house team and I am able to give general role priorities or particular skillsets I value then look forward to receiving candidates I know are going to be of a certain quality and fit. I would have no hesitation in recommending their service to others.

Head of Systems Development

We have found Luke to be very responsive and reactive to our requirements placing several very good candidates recently. He is the person we always ask first when we are looking for a new hire and he always finds us some great candidates. He is also a very pleasant and polite man.

Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer.

I have been using Interact as my main agency for recruiting both permanent and contract programmers in the Milton Keynes area for several years now. They have also successfully provided candidates for other locations when occasionally required. Interact provide an excellent service. Luke does his research well. I never receive inappropriate CVs and he always communicates quickly with interview candidates and me. He follows-up on interviews and keeps in touch with me at just the right level.

Head of UK Software Development

I have worked with Gareth at interAct since 2012 when we needed to expand our UK office with high quality, specifically skilled candidates. During that period, and subsequently, Gareth has provided excellent service. He is straightforward to deal with and I am particularly impressed with the quality of the CVs that he sends. They are well matched to our requirements and this saves me time as I know that every CV from interAct is worth reading and often leads to an interview.

Engineering Manager

InterAct Consulting have been representing me for some time now and have done a great job. Very supportive, very responsive and a team I’m very happy to have on my side.

I have represented Interact Consulting as an Agile evangelist whilst championing and leading Agile transformation for numerous government bodies and departments.

Throughout our business relationship, I’ve been happy to recommend them to many of my colleagues within the profession.

Their approach, speed and efficiency in which they operate and their understanding within the digital world must have helped them earn the respect of prospective employers and many government departments.

This is also backed up by their extremely efficient accounts department and the ever dependable Jacky, who never seems to stop working.

Agile Coach Consultant

interAct Consulting have been working with DRS Data Services Limited (DRS) on a Preferred Supplier basis since 2000, with the successful provision of permanent and specialist contract staff.

In particular our recruitment requirements for everything Software, from Technical/Software Developers to Project/Business Analysis personnel have been account managed by Gareth Broughton to an exceptional standard.

interAct were selected for inclusion on our preferred supplier listing due to their commitment to meeting our expectations of speed of response, supply of quality candidates, competitive terms of business and their professionalism.

The service received from Gareth has been excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending interAct for consideration by other organisations in their recruitment strategies and campaigns.

Human Resources Manager

I have worked exclusively with Gareth as my recruitment consultant over the last 15 years, helping shape my career during this time by placing me in my last 3 roles (including my most recent appointment last month). I always find Gareth extremely dedicated and committed to finding me the right role and in the right company that fits my skills and experience but with potential to progress as well. This is also helped by the fact that he deals with a lot of companies local to where I live and builds long term relationships with them, often placing the majority of the people in the IT teams.

Software Development Manager

After 20 years working in the freelance market I have encountered many recruitment consultants; Gareth Broughton was outstanding. From our initial contact, he was very open and honest about his client's requirements enabling me to make very informed decisions. He skillfully negotiated a fantastic deal for me. In future career moves I will turn to Gareth.

Business Intelligence Consultant

Having worked with interAct on multiple occasions I can thoroughly recommend their services from two different perspectives, a candidate looking for a role and an employee trying to source new additions to the team. interAct’s communication over the years and excellent market knowledge helps filter the right candidates for the role you are recruiting for and as the candidate they make sure you find a role which is a great match for your personal requirements. This makes the process of finding a new opportunity or recruiting for a role streamlined, efficient and ultimately a success.

Software Developer

As a candidate it can sometimes be difficult finding a recruitment organisation that you can trust, and that truly want to partner with you to get the best for you and your client. Working with James & the team at Interact for the past two years proved to be the exception to that rule.

Interact are always one of the first places that I turn to when I need to hire highly skilled technical people for the teams that I work with. They always take the time to fully understand requirements and have been instrumental in helping me to build some of the strongest teams that I have worked with.

The professionalism and engagement from everybody at Interact has been fantastic and I look forward to working with them for many more years.

Head of DevOps Architecture

I have been using the services of InterAct Consulting for approximately 10 years, both to recruit for Testing positions and as an applicant looking for a new role myself. James, Luke, Gareth and the guys at Interact Consulting have helped me many times over the last 10 or so years, including recently providing me with an exemplary contract Tester at very short notice for 6 month contract. They are all very professional and keep in touch regularly with updates on progress. It has been a pleasure working with them and I wish to continue to work with them for many years.
