Pros

I had the pleasure of working with Mike & Matt and the instinct crew from around 18 months whilst living in Manchester. I started in their smaller office on deansgate which we quickly outgrew before moving to the new home on portland street. Being new to recruitment it was quite daunting at first but they soon made me part of the team and my confindence rapidly increased through comprehensive training and getting stuck in. Where instinct really stood out to me was how ethical they are, after hearing horror stories about the underhand tactics that other agencies use it was so nice to know that we were genuinely providing a great service to both our candidates and our clients alike and not just in it for a quick buck. this way clients and candidates would continue to use instincts sevices for their recruitment needs. Fantastic crew to work with - i had a great laugh and met some lifelong friends.

Cons

Cant really fault the place to be totally honest, the guys we're constantly looking to improve the business and not afraid to spend money on staff development. However the kettle was a bit small, so when i continually got rolled in on the "brew dice" i t required 2 boils!! highly annoying

Hi and thank you for taking the time to review Instinct. We are delighted to learn that you enjoyed your time working for the company so much and that you value our ethos and service levels so highly. We are also really pleased that the training and support provided to you enabled your confidence to develop so quickly, though you must give yourself a lot of credit for that too – the dedication, desire & attitude of an individual contributes significantly to personal development! Lifelong friends? AMAZING – that really is music to our ears! Make sure you make contact and call in for a coffee / beer and game of pool! Finally, please accept our apologies for the kettle issue - you may be pleased to hear that we have recently moved to a super new office, with an instant boiling tap – the dice and kettle are long gone!

Pros

The team here has been really welcoming and supportive since day one. As someone still fairly new in the recruitment space, I’ve found it valuable to work with colleagues who are always willing to lend a helping hand and share their knowledge. From day 1 you are supplied with a clear plan of your targets for the year which allows you to focus on your career in recruitment, which I found really useful.

Cons

Can't fault the place! A really fun and social environment to come to 5 days a week!

Pros

Very clear expectations from day 1, with plenty of support from senior management on how to achieve targets and improve these over time No micro-management, you are trusted to be independent in all the work you do but are held to account as a result (which works to help you improve and learn from any mistakes) Communication is very open and honest, and the Director's have managed to curate an environment where staff feel compelled to help each other through sharing ideas, candidates, leads etc. Aside from this, there are monthly lunch clubs, yearly trips, and half days out including the Ale Trail which contribute further to a really positive team culture

Cons

None, you have set KPIs and targets but this can only be expected from a high performing recruitment agency. If you are happy to work hard, there will be no cons
