I liked the frank and constructive guidance on the merits of each person. I didn’t get the feeling that you were trying to “sell” me an individual who wasn’t a good fit.

BCL Legal is our preferred supplier. I have worked with them on vacancies at all of our UK offices. I am consistently impressed by their knowledge and understanding of our business.
