candidate testimonials
I wanted to write to commend you on your employee Samantha Wise. At the beginning of this year I knew I wanted to change roles but my expectations were very high as I was looking for my dream job. I contacted several agencies via a variety of websites, one of which was star.
I received a telephone call from Samantha at 7.45am to talk to me about my application and what I was looking for in a role. She then dedicated over an hour really getting to grips with what type of role I was looking for and what constituted my dream job. After our discussion she selected several roles to discuss with me one of which I had been spoken to by three other agencies before her.
With each of the previous agencies I had turned the role down as one that I did not think would be of interest due to the product and the company. Sam spent over half an hour matching the company and product benefits to everything I had previously stated and what she did not know about the role and company was not worth knowing about.
In our hour and half first telephone conversation she built up my trust in her and her abilities, the honesty and integrity of star and also convinced me to go to first interview with Daiichi Sankyo.
Prior to my interview she phoned to ask a few competency-based questions to ensure I was ready for the interview and gave her support and offer of assistance should I need it. The end result has been that I have now worked with Daiichi Sankyo for two weeks and if it had not been for Sam knowing her customers, the role, product and me I would not be in the position I am now.
Samantha and star really puts all the other recruitment agencies to shame, it is a refreshing change where the recruitment consultant is as passionate about the applicant as the customer hiring.
So with this in mind I would like to commend you on Sam and ensure you that I will be highly recommending her and star to everyone I meet, thank you.
Kezia Luckett, Buckinghamshire
Just a quick email to thank you for all your hard work and efficiency during the short process I had.
From the moment I sent my CV you were aware of a vacancy that would meet my personal needs and experience I had. I was given the great opportunity to come to your head office for an interview. I received a friendly and warm manner from you on my arrival and found you very helpful; interviews always make me nervous but you eased my nerves.
You advised me of your holiday and informed me that a colleague would be calling which kept me in the loop through the process - he was also excellent at dealing with the process whilst you were off.
Thank you for the phone call this morning and for getting me this fantastic job with an excellent company.
Gemma, Gloucestershire
Thank you star. I felt completely at ease knowing you were looking after my best interests. I was not bothered with vacancies that I would not be interested in, and you found me the perfect position! I will recommend you to all my colleagues.
Pete Boyd
After working with other agencies that took so long to reply to my enquiries, star was a breath of fresh air. Nothing was too much trouble; you went out of your way to find me the right role. Thank you!
Alan Fletcher
Sam assisted me recently when I was looking for a new challenge in my career. Unlike most agents, she took great care to discuss my knowledge and experience with me and then only to recommend appropriate vacancies for me.
She hand-picked things so well that every vacancy she put me forward for resulted in a second interview, and on each occasion she went the extra mile to ensure I was more than adequately prepared.
The last second interview I attended she even offered to proof-read my presentation over the weekend. Just fantastic service!
And yes, she did manage to place me in the most fantastic role which I now thoroughly enjoy.
I find it hard to recommend her highly enough.
Fiona Williams, Surrey

Vicky Oakley
As an experienced Medical Rep I was looking for a position that would enhance my career. star offered me a portfolio of opportunities that perfectly met all my needs, they didn’t push me towards vacancies that they wanted filling, instead waiting for the ideal opportunity.
Luke Lambert
I had been a GP Rep for 2 years and was looking for my first role as a Hospital Rep - star helped guide me towards this next step. They understood and listened to my needs and offered me sound advice. And now thanks to star I have got my dream Hospital Rep role.
Gemma Hayes
Very professional and very helpful. I could not have secured my first Medical Representative role without star’s help.
Hayley Crompton
The only agency who actually wanted to meet me and discuss my needs. star is a shining light in the Pharmaceutical recruitment world.
Lucy Dudley
As an experienced Pharmaceutical Rep moving from America to The UK, I was concerned that I would not be able to find a suitable role. star’s nationwide coverage meant I could consider a number of roles across the Country. Working with one consultant, I was shown several excellent opportunities before securing an outstanding Pharmaceutical Sales Representative role.
Sarah Walker
star offered me a bespoke recruitment service that I have not received from other agencies. After an initial interview where all my requirements were discussed, I felt completely confident that the perfect role would be found. I am now about to start a role as a Vaccine Rep.
