Wonderful experience with Gaia Talent and Isadora Schmitt, in particular.
I had a wonderful experience with Gaia Talent, with Isadora in particular.
Clear and frequent communication between from Isadora made the process seamless for me successfully obtaining a new role. Isadora was present from the very start of the process and supported me right through to accepting an offer. I experienced clear communication and a very friendly and warm attitude. I would recommend Gaia Talent to anyone, and particularly found that Isadora was extremely helpful with all queries and was proactive in everything she helped me with. A truly great experience, and I am very grateful. A true 5 star service.

Isadora was amazing throughout the whole process. She was always available, kept me updated, and made everything feel easy and stress-free. Her support, professionalism, and positive attitude really made a difference.

Isadora was excellent to deal during the initial interview stage and follow ups and made the whole process extremely easy.

I had a great experience with Isadora Schmidt as my recruiter and point of contact at Gaia Talent.
The communication with Isadora was very clear and friendly at every stage of the process. She provided excellent guidance and advice before the interview, which helped me to prepare with confidence, and she kept in touch following the interview and ensured the offer came through quickly.
Each stage was managed very well, from the first conversation to accepting the offer. This made the whole process virtually stress-free, which was a great relief.
I would happily recommend Gaia Talent and would like to thank Isadora for all her hard work!
Isadora was brilliant to work with
Isadora was brilliant to work with! Very responsive and attentive.
Isadora Schmidt was excellent
Isadora Schmidt was instrumental in finding and securing my new role. She provided very professional frequent communication setting up interviews and her guidance made the process of putting me forward for different roles seamless.
It was a pleasure to work with her and I would recommend her for anyone looking for a new position.
Very useful. Just one small drawback
Recruiter was very knowledgeable and informative, had the right connections, was open to me outlining which companies I had in mind to work for because of which options did/did not align with my values.
I was in contact with Gaia every step of the way, which was very reassuring and helpful, however, one drawback is that not every phone call with the recruiter would be scheduled or given advance notice. This meant there were a few times I was in the office of my previous current workplace (or on the bus commuting) into the office, getting calls on my phone to discuss options, next steps, next round interviews which was not something you can openly discuss on the phone while trying to leave a place. If I declined the call or didn't answer, I would be called back immediately. I think an email or a text in advance would help things be a bit smoother.

Isadora Schmidt is an outstanding recruiter—professional, proactive, and genuinely supportive throughout the entire process. She communicates clearly, follows up promptly, and truly understands how to match candidates with the right opportunities. Working with her was a seamless and positive experience. Highly recommended
Fantastic team
It was a great experience from the start. Isadora and the whole team at Gaia Talent were very professional, friendly and kind. They were always in touch and working to find the best option that would suit both professional and personal skills. Trustworthy, professional, a team with amazing people.
Isadora is a real asset to Gaia Talent
I have went through recruiters before and didn't have much faith in going down this route. After job hunting for 3 months, 15+ applications later and either being ghosted or getting generic rejection responses, I knew I had to change things up.
There was something about Isadora's posts on LinkedIn that really resonated with me; they were honest, engaging and down to earth. I reached out to Isadora and within the space of a couple of weeks a role came up very much suited to my skills, experience, location etc and she didn't hesitate to reach out to me about it.
It was a busy period for me and I was still skeptical about investing time and effort into a recruiter for things to go stagnant. I feel Isadora's persistence and encouragement about the role is what lead me to take the leap of faith. Two interviews later, I got the job offer and have accepted! I'm super excited and feel like this role is such a good fit for me, something I haven't felt in any of my roles up to this point.
Isadora was extremely helpful, understanding, attentive and knowledgeable throughout. I feel like she took the time to build a good rapport with me and make sure my expectations were met as a potential employee (this is completely contrary to experiences I've had where recruiters are very much there for the employer or to fill a vacancy as quick as possible).
I'm very fortunate to have met a recruiter like her, she's such an asset to Gaia Talent and I can't recommend her enough. Thanks so much Isadora!
First time with a recruitment company
I didn’t have any prior experience with recruitment agencies and was initially sceptical about how effective the process could be. However, Isadora at Gaia Talent made my transition to a new role feel seamless and stress-free.
Balancing a demanding job with job searching and applications can be overwhelming, especially in a fast-paced environment, but Isadora took the pressure off me. Her support, communication, and understanding of what I was looking for made the entire process straightforward and painless.
A big thank you to Isadora and the team at Gaia Talent, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering a career move.
Above and beyond at every step
I couldn't imagine a more seamless recruitment process than the one I experienced with Isadora. From the very first email and call, she was attentive, supportive, and generous with her advice. I was presented with multiple options, kept regularly informed throughout the process, and received prompt responses to every question, often within minutes. It's hard to imagine better support during such a pivotal moment in one’s career. Isadora truly went above and beyond.
Eva O’Brien is a fantastic recruiter
From first engagement Gaia’s staff were so professional and amiable. I worked with an absolutely lovely recruiter - Eva O’Brien. She made sure to find out my career background and goals and suggested a number of available positions at highly reputable practises within my field. I applied for several roles and interviewed for same, and all throughout Gaia handled the organisation of these promptly and effectively. Furthermore, Eva went above and beyond by checking in on me whilst on annual leave - a testament to her dedication! They made me feel like I was their main priority and that they had my personal and professional interests at heart. In the end they matched me to a fantastic new employer, and secured me a great employment package. I would definitely recommend working with this recruiter!
I would highly recommend working with Isadora Schmidt from Gaia Talent
I would highly recommend working with Isadora Schmidt from Gaia Talent. She was incredibly helpful, professional, and efficient. She organised multiple interviews for me within a very short period of time, offering support and encouragement every step of the way. She went above and beyond to communicate with me, both during and after the process. She has helped myself and several colleagues secure excellent new roles and ensured a smooth transition for each of us. She is well known in our industry as being the best in her field!
