Albany Appointments are without doubt my preferred choice of agency. From an employees perspective I found their service to be professional, personal and incredibly slick. Not only were they always on hand for advice and guidance their approach was always to suggest positions they felt would not only suit my skills set but also my character and personality. The team were quick to respond to my initial enquiry and I found myself with a new position within a very short time period. Faye Hampton has made contact numerous times since my placement to ensure the position was going to plan and I have since referred their service to a number of my peers.
