What our candidates say
“MM was very supportive on every step of the recruitment process. They are very responsive to my questions and concerns. Their ability to provide complete information and clear view on the role and hiring firm made my decision-making easy. I cannot recommend then enough.”
“A massive thank you to the MM team for helping me secure a great job. If it was not for Angus Turnbull I would have missed this great job opportunity. The MM team was very professional and supportive throughout the recruitment process. I received regular feedback and all my questions were addressed. A special thank you to Angus for always being available and assisting me every step of the way. MM is an awesome recruitment company and I highly recommend them.”
“MM was an exceptional recruiting company to work with. They approached me for a position and were with me every step of the way. They were exceptionality persistent with their clients in getting me to the next level and I believe really put a lot of effort into ensuring my interests were voiced and known. They really went the extra mile at every corner and managed to secure me my dream job!”
“The fact that MM came back to me 6 months after a Covid-driven hiring freeze to ensure that my profile was on their client's radar is testimony to their thoroughly professional approach. Right from the outset, our exchanges were fluid and mutually transparent, which gave me a lot of confidence throughout the selection process. I would gladly recommend MM to other candidates as well as hiring managers!”
“MM suggested a role that aligned with my interests instead of just focusing on my past experience like so many other recruiters do. They quickly arranged interviews for me and talked me through what to expect and gave me additional information when asked. They regularly checked with me that I was happy with the process instead of trying to force a placement. I’ve just completed my first two weeks on the new job and am very happy with the outcome.”
“MM were very helpful and thoughtful throughout my recruitment process which progressed quite quickly. They were always available for any concerns or questions I had, and ensured that I had all the information I needed to make a decision.”
"I was very pleased by my recruitment experience with MM. They were very thorough during the whole selection process I participated in. They have shown a deep knowledge of the industry and were very attentive to my demands and preoccupation. Specifically, I felt they truly understood where I was standing from a career point of view and what my expectations were for a new position. I went through a long selection process during which they were very supportive. I sincerely recommend them if you are looking for a new challenge for your career."
“I was really satisfied with your service. Actually you mastered the specificities of the job, you show motivation and professionalism throughout the process. I really appreciated your follow-up with OI (particularly when the process stopped for a moment). I think you were really objective (when I talk to you about my process at IFC you gave me your relevant opinion on the differences between the two job offers (debt vs equity investment), what I appreciated a lot). Thank you MM for your support and professionalism.”
“I had a pleasure working with MM. They are dedicated professionals who are always ready to share their in-depth market knowledge. MM has been clear and transparent throughout. They made the project move quickly. I was very comfortable with every aspect of the process and enjoyed working with them.”
“MM handled my selection process thoughtfully and professionally. MM's meticulous approach was unmistakable: they clearly articulated the job's requirements, and walked me through each stage of the selection process methodically. As a result, I was well-prepared and at my best for the interview. I was thoroughly impressed with MM throughout the process, and would happily recommend MM as an executive-search firm to others.”
