"Sleazy recruitment agency that violates UK privacy and discrimination laws..."

I was cold-called by a recruiter working for Parkside Recruitment. Prior to the call, they reviewed my LinkedIn profile and determined that I would be a good candidate for a contract position at Amazon. They asked for my date of birth (illegal) and my National Insurance Number (illegal) to submit a CV to Amazon. I'm a UK citizen and legal to work. I asked them to remove my CV from their records. I sent a message via LinkedIn to the manager, Sandra Orton. She simply referred me back to the same recruiter who seemed to be ignorant of UK law.

Unprofessional group....steer clear.

"Great Experience"

Great Experience
I would highly recommend Parkside to anyone looking for a new role. Stuart and Claire have been brilliant during the whole process. Communication was excellent and they prepared me for my interview really well. They were helpful, supportive and really knowledgeable about the company and role which meant I knew exactly what to expect. I got the job! and can't wait to start a new and exciting career. Thank you, Parkside!

"You won’t find better recruiters then those at Parkside!"

Both Kelly and Imogen were fantastic in helping me secure my next role and have continued to stay in touch to make sure I am happy in my new position.

Thank you both for such an exceptional recruitment process. I would highly recommend both Imogen and Kelly, as well as the whole team at Parkside Recruitment, if you are looking for or considering a new role.

"Found the perfect job with Connor from Parkside"

Parkside was a great recruitment agency to work with. In particular, Connor Bryant is the best recruiter I have encountered, excellent communication, fantastic ability to match candidates with roles well suited to their skillset and personality. Connor really went above and beyond to progress my application as quickly as possible to maximise my chances for getting into the role, brilliant recruiter to work with. Couldn't recommend more.

"Please stop pestering me on social…"

Please stop pestering me on social media!! I have reported your account

"My daughter left a good job to work for…"

My daughter left a good job to work for park side , 6 days later they let her go as she didn’t have the “personality “ for the job !! Absolutely disgusting way to treat a young lady , the day the boss Sandra was away the staff were playing football in the office and generally mucking around , she didn’t join in as wanted to do her work. A week before Christmas and 6 days after starting she is gone.
They call them self recruitment company ! An absolute joke , stay well clear if this crap company !

"Avoid them"

An odd uncommunicative operation with very unprofessional ethos. Avoid if you are searching for a new position.

"It’s a scam"

I randomly got an email by their rep called Alan Freeman that they saw my cv on Monster.com and thinks that they have a job suitable for me. They showed me a job for a senior data analyst and asked me to give an online test for which they would give me feedback no matter whether I do well or bad. It’s been three months since I’ve given the test and I haven’t been contacted by Alan Freeman or the company even after sending multiple emails and phone calls.
Don’t waste your time with this company. It doesn’t really help you. It asks you to give online tests so they could show their recruiters that they have a lot of people looking for work from their recruitment agency!
