What Our Clients Say

Hiring Receptionists, Product Library Assistants, Post Room Assistants, Customer Care Assistants

“Working with Australasian Recruitment Company over the past two years has been the easiest work relationship I have encountered with any external company.

We are often very late in knowing our requirements, however the agency has never failed to fulfil our demands and last-minute requests.

Our consultant is extremely professional and easy to reach, she is very transparent and keeps communication very clear. She has provided us with the most mature, experienced and professional workers and we are always very confident in her choices.

It’s an absolute pleasure to work with our consultant and the agency and hope to continue with this work relationship for years to come!”

Hiring Customer Service Roles and Recruitment Coordinators 

“I worked with Australasian on a major company project to secure over thirty members of temp staff to work at six different locations over a period of two weeks.

From day one my consultant and her team were committed to providing the highest level of service. The team were organised and dedicated to making sure our needs as a company were met.

Australasian took away the stress of finding reliable individuals to carry out this important project. I would highly recommend Australasian to anyone looking for professional, hardworking and dependable staff.”

Hiring Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Team Assistants and Receptionists

“From a client point of view, I feel that we have built strong relationships with the Australasian team. My consultant especially has a great work ethic, efficient, professional and fully understands the company and departmental needs when placing full time staff.

I was placed by Australasian myself, so appreciate how they help not only the client but also the candidate to make sure it is the right “fit” for both sides.”

Hiring Receptionists, Personal Assistants and Group Coordinators

“Key for me is how the Directors at Australasian Recruitment Company are always accessible. Jeremy is available at the drop of a hat and knows exactly what is going on with candidates and roles. He has his feelers out, ear to the ground and is extremely reliable in his availability to speak personally with me.

Candidates are of a very high quality – even though I have used other agencies and conducted interviews through them, placements have generally been made through Australasian Recruitment Company due to the quality.

The temporary service provided is extremely quick, while rates are very competitive which has been helpful during a recession. Candidates always arrive within two hours and it’s never too much trouble for the consultant to arrange.

Australasian Recruitment Company really listen to what we’re after – rather than just a business relationship it feels as though they are friends. The consultants are personable, reliable and very caring towards their candidates and clients. They have great expertise in the market and I have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with the team.”

Hiring Receptionists, Executive Assistants and Team Assistants

“For me, the most important aspect of dealing with a recruitment company is how well they understand the brief and therefore provide the right candidates. Where I feel Australasian Recruitment Company add great value is their ability to find candidates that possess the right traits but don’t necessarily have a CV that can outline this. This has meant that they are more imaginative than other recruiters and take the time to really understand what it is that I need. I have found the range of candidates they provide to be very diverse, individuals that offer different views and thought patterns, which we value highly. This approach is in my view what sets them apart from their competitors.

Australasian Recruitment Company really think outside the box in terms of where they source candidates from. The recruiters are highly consultative and maintain strong collaboration throughout the process with excellent guidance. I would not hesitate to use them again.”

“Australasian Recruitment has been instrumental in helping us scale our Customer Service department over the last six months. They have been extremely fast and efficient in providing us with staff that completely matched our needs and hit the ground running.

Our consultant and Holly were able to provide superstars at a moment’s notice and all candidates that came through Australasian had a fantastic work ethic, amazing attitude and upheld the values of the company.

We couldn’t have asked for a better staffing partner! Thank you Australasian!”

Hiring Receptionists, Personal Assistants and Team Assistants

“Australasian have been providing us with excellent temporary and permanent staff for five years now and they are always our first choice.

You know when you call the office you are going to get a warm and friendly response and that you’ll really be listened to. Their candidates are fantastic and extremely hard working and you always know you are going to get a first-class service.

I have heard first hand that being a candidate of Australasian is also a brilliant experience and you are treated with respect and met with a great sense of humour.

We love them!”

Hiring Receptionists and Team Assistants

“We have always been extremely impressed by the service received by Australasian Recruitment Company for both the temporary and permanent recruitment needs.

We often need assistance for our head office reception and Australasian is always the first call we make because of the guaranteed efficient service they provide but also the confident, hardworking and friendly temporary staff they always provide us.

In more recent times, Australasian have helped us with a permanent Team Assistant role. My consultant really took a lot of time to understand the role and our requirements and then worked quickly on delivering a high standard of candidates, which were exactly what we are looking for!

I think what makes Australasian stand out from the crowd is their capability to deliver exactly what you are looking for in a naturally efficient manner. Working with my consultant has been a pleasure (not the usual recruitment agency chore) and I look forward to picking up new roles with her in the future.”

Hiring Receptionists, Team Assistants and Executive Assistants

“I have been dealing with Australasian now for many years and always been hugely impressed by not only their professionalism but their integrity and passion throughout the complete recruitment process (both client and candidate). Australasian actually placed me here at my current role at my company and there is no better placement I could ever have found. Australasian’s approach is to take their time to get to know their clients’ needs and wants individually. Personally, for me, having someone I can trust as a business confidant is second to none and I have this with Australasian.

I have been working with the team at Australasian on both permanent and temporary positions, covering support roles, reception and EA positions for many years now. They only ever send candidates that they know will fit not only the remit of the role required, but also personality for the particular team, together with our diverse company values. These are the people I end up hiring.

This is a relationship that has gone from strength to strength and one that I truly believe will continue to thrive as our company grows.”

Hiring Reception Cover

“Australasian Recruitment Company has a notably friendly and flexible attitude and the calibre of candidates have been better than other agencies I have used. My needs have been for temporary staff and the initial training that temps underwent was very helpful to the business. I have always received a quick response and the consultants are very thorough in informing both me and the candidates of any last-minute adjustments. Where possible, I have been able to get the same candidate back and if that has ever been difficult, then a member of their own team has filled in.

The calibre of candidates is high -they are always early, well prepared and incredibly proactive. Within half a day we feel comfortable to leave them to it and if they ever run out of work, they ask for more. The consultants are efficient, friendly and flexible – I commend the service and will continue to be a constant user.”

Hiring Admissions Administrators, Personal Assistants, Marketing Coordinators and Project Coordinators

“I have found Australasian Recruitment Company to provide a great service; from speaking to the team about a requirement, to the temps that come through the door, it has been very efficient with fast responses to any queries.

My consultant has always been professional, friendly and approachable. We advise the timescale we want to work to in terms of receiving CVs and my consultant is always able to work within those times.

The temporary service provides reliable candidates who are great at getting to us and being here as long as we need them. They are also able to pick up our systems and procedures quickly and effectively. Overall, I have found the calibre of the candidates to be better than other agencies I have used in the past and Australasian Recruitment Company are very quick to match the individual’s experience to our needs.”

Hiring Senior Business Support Officers

“In my experience of dealing with Australasian I have found them to be experts in their field whilst also providing an efficient, customer focused service.

Although remaining under the admin category a couple of niche roles were created on my team. These roles required a broad range of skills from financial to technology. Having had used a number of agencies I was unsuccessful in getting the right candidate. Australasian was recommended to me and I was finally able to find suitable candidates who were a perfect fit. I found that Australasia takes the leg work out as the screening is excellent and meant that I could trust the calibre of candidate coming in and focus on investing in the necessary training. Initially sceptical I learned that I could trust their judgement!

Australasian has set the standard exceptionally high, listening to the client needs and focusing on the right skills to a high standard. I would highly recommend Australasia as a brand who gets it right first time.”

Hiring Secretaries and Document Controllers

“I would recommend Australasian Recruitment Company to anybody (actually have done, and they have been really pleased with the service too).

I have my contact Holly Finlayson and she is always really polite, willing and proactive. Always on hand to answer an email or phone call, always very understanding and never hard to get a hold of.

Several times I have contact Australasian with urgent requirements and have always had someone within a few hours.

I haven’t used another agency since I have been with Australasian and I definitely won’t be using another agency again! I plan to have a very long working relationship with Holly and her team.”

I also trust their judgement and the quality of the staff they provide so much that I don’t need to interview the candidate coming for the role I am recruiting for.

The candidates and staff that Australasian employs are second to none and make using an agency so much easier. Australasian isn’t pushy and they get to know exactly what you require. They take the time to meet with you and find out the kind of person your company likes. They are not your ‘typical’ Recruitment Agency.

Hiring Receptionists, Document Controllers and Project Secretaries

“We have built a very trustworthy relationship with Australasian dating back to the year 2011.

During this time I have found their service to be excellent. No matter how much notice that I give them, which is often very little, they always provide me with excellent CVs for candidates all of whom have reached our very high expectations.

Throughout our relationship I have heavily relied on their expertise in placing staff around our business, not just at our head office but also at our various site offices.

We have never been disappointed with the efficiency and speed that Australasian provides for placing the type of candidates that our business demands.

They always constantly think ‘outside of the box’ and make suggestions to us that sometimes we haven’t thought of ourselves.

I know that we will continue using Australasian’s services, and will continue this relationship for years to come.”

Hiring Receptionists

“Australasian is my go-to agency for short notice receptionist cover. The agency is a pleasure to work with, especially our consultants, and they provide a fast and hassle-free service. To date we have had three temps provided at short notice, and each one was personable, unflappable, diligent and helpful.

I would recommend Australasian without hesitation for both short-term receptionist cover, as well as recruiters of reliable full-time receptionists.”

Hiring Receptionists, Human Resources Administrators, Personal Assistants and Sales Administrators

“What stands out about Australasian Recruitment Company is their response time. When we have needed someone in a hurry the turnaround time has been particularly good and this is because they know us really well. I have worked with Australasian Recruitment Company for a long time and the candidates are always a good fit as the consultants understand the culture of the team and the company really well.

When we have utilised the temporary service at Australasian Recruitment Company I have been pleased with the quick response and the obvious difference in the calibre of candidates from competitors.

Having been a client for a number of years we have changed account manager but Australasian Recruitment Company were seamless in the transfer and have been diligent in focusing on consistency and maintaining a long-term relationship with us.”

Hiring Receptionist, Administrators, Human Resources Staff, Recruitment Staff, Events and Team Coordinators, Executive Assistants and Personal Assistants

“We have a long standing and positive relationship with Holly and the team at Australasian and since joining the organisation I have always been delighted with the exceptional service we receive. As such, we now utilise them on a sole agency basis for all of our administrative recruitment needs, as quite simply I do not believe the service could be matched by anyone else.

Unlike many recruitment agencies I have dealt with, Australasian go out of their way to understand not only the requirements of each role but also our culture and ethos, and as a result they always know (and provide) the exact candidate we need.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Holly is as adept at identifying talent for our roles as our internal recruitment team. Every time we speak it is like I am speaking to a colleague rather than an external agency and our highly collaborative and consultative relationship means we no longer interview prospective candidates; we simply provide a job description and they provide a name (often to very tight timelines).

As a recruitment manager this is an agency relationship you hope for but very rarely get, so I cannot speak highly enough of Holly and her team and would not hesitate to recommend their exceptional service.”

Hiring Operations Support, Marketing Assistants and Recruitment Assistants

“We have used Australasian Recruitment for many years and have always been exceptionally pleased with the quality and pre-vetting of candidates that have been submitted to us.

The key differentiator between Australasian and other recruitment companies we have used in the past was absolutely clear from the beginning: they take the time to fully understand our company and business, our ethos, the detail for the role to we are recruiting for and they understand the type of person that we are looking for.

The quality of candidates submitted surpasses that of our previous agencies by a mile. When we meet candidates at interview it is quite often clear why they have been put forward to us, they save us a huge amount of time in filtering out applicants that would not be the right fit for the role which is a great help and ensures that our entire recruitment process is timely and efficient.

Throughout all of our dealings, Australasian staff have taken the time to regularly keep us updated on candidate search, and above all are always efficient, proactive and quickly responsive to any questions or concerns that we may have. The team are so friendly and helpful and are always willing to go the extra mile – it doesn’t feel like you are dealing with an agency it’s more of a colleague or friend, yet throughout the process, their professionalism remains paramount.

I would not hesitate to recommend Holly and her team at Australasian to anyone in need, you know your custom is valued and the team have a genuine desire to want to help you fill your roles. We couldn’t ask for a better relationship.”

Hiring Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Human Resources Coordinators and Sales Secretaries

“I first approached Australasian Recruitment Agency in 2005 regarding temporary cover for a PA role. From the start I found their recruiters to be responsive, professional, honest and understanding of our business and our needs, thus able to match their candidates perfectly.

Recently there was a situation when another agency pulled their temporary candidate a few hours prior to the start of the assignment. I contacted Australasian in a bit of a panic (I don’t mind admitting) and they were able to find a replacement within 30 minutes!

We are not their biggest client, by all means; however, they always make us feel important. We have an excellent working relationship and would have no hesitation in recommending Australasian to others.”
