Mathew was very helpful

Mathew was very helpful, he kindly walked me through how to set up watchdogs and post job adverts that allow me to access good quality candidates based in my client locations. We also have an agreed catch up to review how I am getting along with the watchdogs and job adverts.

My Account Manager is Courtney Jackson. He goes well beyond the call of duty to ensure we are getting the most of CV library...he tries very hard to give an excellent service. Our concern with CV library is the quality of candidates on the database which has been a growing concern for about 1 year. However 'CJ@ is a superb account manager and representative of the business

I’ve had a really positive experience working with Kaylin. She’s been incredibly helpful in sourcing strong, relevant CVs for my roles and has made the whole process much smoother. Her guidance with navigating the CV-Library system has been especially valuable, saving me time and helping me get the most out of the platform.

Thanks to her support, I’ve been able to identify high-quality candidates much more efficiently. I would highly recommend CV-Library, and Kaylin in particular, for anyone looking for a reliable and supportive recruitment partner.

Excellent Support and Quick Resolution

We recently experienced some issues with our CV Library integration, and I have to say the level of support we received was excellent from start to finish.

Terri was particularly helpful throughout the process—responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive in finding a solution. She took the time to fully understand the issue and worked closely with us to ensure everything was resolved as smoothly as possible.

What stood out most was her willingness to go above and beyond, helping us reset our setup and making sure we could get back up and running without impacting our candidate experience.

Overall, a really positive experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their service and support.

Returning customer

Returning customer, reached out to customer support with a tech issue and Courtney Jackson walked me through it and got a resolution on the phone there and then. Much more refreshing approach compared to the prevalence of chatbots and no phone support with other suppliers!
