Fisher Leadership gave expert guidance throughout the process. From my first contact to find out more about the position and the key skills through to the last interview stage, the Fisher Leadership team anticipated what would be needed for me to put my best responses forward. Their personal approach was warm and engaging and the high level of communication meant I understood all steps and the timing in the recruitment process. They even checked in during a slight delay to keep me informed so I wasn’t worried about delays.
