Exceptional Support and Professionalism from Kirsty Chasmer

I cannot recommend Kirsty Chasmer highly enough! From the very first contact, Kirsty has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She reached out to me with kindness and professionalism, clearly explaining the job opportunity she had in mind for me. Her approach was warm, easy-going, and tailored to someone like me who had never worked with a recruitment agency before. She made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free.

Kirsty’s support didn’t stop after I accepted the position. She has been with me every step of the way, checking in regularly and offering guidance whenever needed. Her responsiveness is outstanding—she replies quickly and always with helpful, thoughtful answers. Even now that I’ve started my new role, Kirsty continues to provide support, which truly sets her apart.

What stands out most about Kirsty is her genuine care for the people she works with. She has a natural ability to make you feel comfortable and confident, even if you’re new to the recruitment process. Her professionalism, kindness, and excellent communication skills make her an exceptional recruiter and advisor.

If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to help you find the right opportunity and support you throughout the journey, Kirsty is the person to work with. Thank you, Kirsty, for everything you’ve done—I’m so grateful for your guidance and support!

This company can only be described as disgusting and scam and I am appalled that they are actually allowed to operate!
Every worker is more shameless than the previous one and I am absolutely stunned at the sheer shamelessness and incredibly poor ethics of how they operate.
I am a senior OT and they have put me in a dangerous situation by me accepting a role and moving across the country with totally different salary and conditions than we discussed! I would miss out on more than £160 per week which equates to more than £1000 of loss in earnings compared to my previous role and my standard banding.
What made is worse when I shockingly brought this up the manager Kirstin and all her staff completely denied doing anything wrong and just throwing absurd justifications which do not match what actually happened nor the figures that I saw in the gross pay!
This company is run by liars and staff with low morale so I will be spreading the word to avoid this agency at all costs!
Ridiculously enough, I have also just received a phone call from their agent Andy saying he is keen to get me back to work with them but laughed when I said there is no way as their company cost me more than £1000 in losses!
Absolute insanity! And I receive this phone call 2 months after already leaving them while nothing was done and nobody even apologised while the whole thing was ongoing!
Company run by greed and slimy lies throughout and no regard for putting people in vulnerable and dangerous situations where they have moved for a role and then have to accept a pay cut of £1000 per month! I am speechless and hope this serves as a warning to any potential candidates who review them before signing up with them.

Rudest company I've come across in years. Ignorant and rude

George, who I dealt with during the process was excellent, kept on top of everything, giving regular updates and was always easy to chat with!

Excellent service

Awesome communication, everything felt smooth and efficient. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Great agency to work with. I had very specific requirements about the work that I was looking for and my recruitment consultant found me the perfect placement. The whole process, together with compliance was straight forward and well explained and communication has been brilliant throughout. Thank you Andy Koukos you are definitely a star.

Andy Koukos has been so helpful from the start. A great experience with him as my consultant in helping me find the right role and will certainly use him again. I would recommend this agency to anyone.

If it were possible to give no stars I would. I am a staff nurse (RMN) and a staff was booked for a Saturday shift and they never turned up. I in turn have been trying to make contact with the phone numbers which are on line. Two telephone numbers are not recognised and the one I managed to get I can only leave a voicemail. This has left my unit shorted staff with all the concerns that being short staffed leave us with.

DO NOT USE THIS ANGENCY

I am very happy with the support provided. Andy the recruitment staff member very helpful and assisted me throughout the process of my employment. Andy is very friendly and amazing. He is a star.

My experience with Blackstone have been amazing from registering with them up to date. My Consultant is very responsive to any query I may have and she is very helpful.

Blackstones is a well organised and well run company. Emma is my “go-to” in the agency and she is absolutely fantastic! She always try to help where possible and if she can’t straight away, she will ask another department and get back to me. She seems very busy but always finds time for me. She even called to see how I got on at my new post after my first day. I’ve just started with them and cant complain about my experience so far! Thumbs up from me!

The Agency has been amazing. Always prompt on answering my queries, professional yet friendly and approachable.
Kirsty never stopped supporting me and has been always there for me whenever needed.
Will definitely continue working with Blackstone for many years to come.

My experience of Blackstone Recruitment has been positive so far. They have worked hard to secure me a role with a better rate of pay from a previous agency.

Andy Koukos has been amazing helping finding me several locum positions to choose from to tailor around my other commitments. He is really approachable, supportive and encouraging, and takes time to listen to you. Nothing seems to much trouble. Thank you Andy.

Have been very supportive and professional in their approach, would recommend them.

Role: Occupational Therapist (Locum)

Has been a great pleasure to have been supported by Blackstone Recruitment - specifically by Andy Koukos who has been a great individual to work alongside throughout this process (especially during this pandemic period), has been very supportive, clear, always prompt and engaging throughout the time that I have known him, responding to my concerns even on the weekends! Great individual, great company and will be with them for the foreseeable.

I am a retired person and joined the agency July 2020. I struggle with technology and Kirsty has been extremely supportive holding my hand throughout. She is available, caring and reliable beyond the call of duty. I could not do my job without her support.

Very happy with Blackstone services from start to finish. Andy Kookos is very helpful and is always available whenever I have an issue. Very satisfied!!

I have found Blackstone Recruitment instrumental in my medical career development. I would like to thank Ella Wratten for her dedication, proffesionalism and efficiency. She is more than just a recruitment consultant, she is a facilitator, motivator, effective communicator and mentor. Ella’s responses are swift, empathetic,she willingly answers questions and is very patient. Ella has worked with me to secure a new job that is closer to home, and pays a better wage. Ella also helped me to realise my full potential as a clinician and gave me the confidence and coaching to step into what will be a great opportunity. I have already recommended my Podiatry colleagues to Blackstone recruitment - a proffesional and excellent organisation. Thank you.

Ella has been brilliant in providing an excellent service.She is available when ever you need her and at all times gives a very valuable service .She does look after your needs by finding you the best and suitable locum roles.She will answer all the questions efficiently and will make sure she takes the least possible time in getting back. She is good at her job and I do not feel the need to find someone else to find me locum work.
