Everyone at Meyer Scott was incredibly helpful, Yvette was very supportive and proactive all throughout the recruitment. I'm very grateful for all of their help in finding me my new job
After visiting their offices to register, I was quickly offered a temp role. This had not happened with any other agency so I was very impressed. Sue is a great person to deal with. She is friendly and professional and in constant contact with me regarding suitable roles in my required areas. Text job alerts are good too. Highly recommend.
Been registered with Meyer scott for sometimes.Despite my skills and experience they only contacted me for temporary work.
I was supposed to receive a telephone interview but it never came .the office didn't inform.me about the change of heart and why.
They only contacted me a couple of days later apologising .
Then they arranged an interview for me for yethe another temporary jobs .they said it was for 12 and then they rang again sating it was actually at 11.the day if the interview I turned up and the girl at the office took me to send conference room where a tiny laptop was waiting for me .when I asked what I was supposed to do she told me that I had to perform an hour long assessment to valter my skills .of course they didn't tell me an assessment was taking place !!!I was furious and I still am.these people have our lidedicated in their hands .don't care about our feelings and our personal.issues.you have to pray that they like you ifor not there will not be interviews.at lead to they bothered to read my curriculum unlike others .
.
I am very thankful to Meyer and Scott for finding me a great place to start working.
I have found Meyer Scott to be a professional, pleasant, and helpful company to deal with. They provided me with two temp placements in succession and I have no complaints about the service they have provided.
Have found me a number of good temporary roles, always helpful friendly and proactive . Very grateful to them

So quick and painless after being put in a less than ideal situation. Thank you Sally and all the team for your professionalism and support. Superstars!!!
Great bunch of people who help anyway they can, kept me informed every thing they put me forward for and results .
I was made redundant as a result of the Coronavirus and found myself, like many others, in the dreadful position of having no job. I signed on with Meyer Scott and immediately was given the opportunity to talk and give a verbal personal account of my work experience and situation. I was listened to with understanding and empathy for my situation and I felt that I was in good hands, with a person who would try their best to put me forward for every suitable position. I gained employment through Meyer Scott's professional attention and care, fortunately an appropriate vacancy came their way quite quickly and I was put forward for interview. I interviewed and am happy to say I got the job! I'm very happy to recommend Meyer Scott to anyone thinking of joining them. My recruiter was Yvette and I can honestly say she works hard for her clients and has their best interests at heart. In these particular times when many of us have had completely unexpected redundancy thrown at us, please don't hesitate to join Meyer Scott and take the opportunity to benefit from their help. They will not suggest any roles that are unsuitable and will do their best to match the right candidate with the right potential employer.
I am really grateful to Yvette for all of her attention and hope anyone reading this will be encouraged to join them.
Yvette and I have built up a lovely relationship over the last few months and I cannot wait to start my new role. Highly recommended. Found me a role that suits exactly what I m looking for. Thanks
We have used Meyer Scott on 3 occasions. Our current staff is frequently contacted by Meyer-Scott in hopes of poaching them away. Quite clever really... find us staff, charge us for it, steal staff away so we will have to use Meyer Scott again and pay more fees. It's a sneaky way of running a recruitment agency. When questioning Meyer Scott, they of course deny this practice and say it was an accidental mistake... a mistake they made 3 times.... Will not use again.
Went in for an interview with Ryan on Tuesday and offered a placement on Wednesday. Can't be bad. Thank you
I have dealt with Meyer Scott and Yvette many times over the years and I can highly recommend them. Fantastic staff, friendly service and always helpful. Thank you so much for all your help this year especially during my job search!!
I found my experience in the St ives office very proficient and professional.
The paperwork was completed very quickly and the communication and support was excellent.if ryan or louise said they would call they did.I was offered an assignment as soon as my references were clarified.I felt.supported and valued as a temporary worker unlike other agencies which felt as though you were just earning the agency money.I hope after this assignment that we can work together in the future in a positive and productive way as it is now.
Thank you
Registered with Meyer Scott Recruitment and found them really helpful and proactive. Yvette was my contact and managed to get me an interview at a company that fitted my skill set. Less than 10 days later, I was successful in the process and excited about my new job.
As a longstanding client Meyer-Scott have provided me with an excellent service. They have provided me with clerical personnel often a short notice! The staff are friendly, their rates very competitive and easy to deal with.
I have used a verity of recruitment agencies throughout my studies and I can affirm that Meyer-Scott are the best of the lot - they are prompt, flexible and reliable.
Moreover, their input has expanded my skills and capabilities by successfully placing me in meaningful and challenging positions. Overall, Meyer-Scott have been a key contributor in developing my employability and I am grateful for their work.
Very professional company with excellent communication skills and extremely friendly people to work with. Fully recommend
Found me a job during down time and staff were friendly
Very cool company run by genuine people who really want to help you
Very friendly staff.extreamly effiecnt and professional.
I have worked regularly in temp roles over the years and Meyers Scott is first class. Sue and all members of staff I have dealt with have been helpful, kind and look after me, as I am a nightmare for remembering my time sheet! Sue has visited my assignment and know that this company were impressed by Scott Meyers too and I was working within two days of registering. Scott Meyers was recommended to me by my previous manager, who was impressed by their service over many years. I couldn t recommend Scott Meyers more wholeheartedly.
What incredibly helpful ladies. I was contacted by them as they had seen my CV online and said they thought they could help me with a job. Temp for 8 weeks possibly leading to six months. Job is great and the team are super nice and already talking about me going permanent there later in the year. I am delighted with the way Meyer-Scott helped me. Great company and worth checking out if looking for a job.

Rude, incompetent, and misleading
I recently applied for a job I saw advertised online. Meyer Scott were the company responsible for recruiting .
A few days later I received a text message asking me to phone them in order to "Progress [My] application"
To me this implies that the application has been successful and they want to discuss the position with me.
During the call I am told that I need to come to their office for a meeting, I assumed a job interview.
I was unavailable the day after the phone call but I could come in the day after that, less than 48 hours after contacting them which to me seems reasonable. The person on the phone speaks in a confident and slightly aggressive manor.
"Can you SERIOUSLY not do any sooner, this position is urgent?"
Despite finding this rude, I agreed to cancel my plans since I was interested in the position.
They then asked me if I received a specific email from them, I scanned over my emails and saw their name but the subject preview was wrong.
I said I had only received one email from them and it was not the one in question. Then the phone operator told me "that must be it"
I wrongly assumed she knew was she was talking about and was familiar with the email system so we continued.
I did not receive the email containing the information. I phoned them the next day, 2 hours before the meeting, to ask if they could resend it.
It turns out they had my email wrong, despite them having it from when I applied online. They had incorrectly copied it from my CV. They then sent 1 out of the 2 emails I was told I would receive.
I was told I needed my passport and proof of my national insurance number, again to me this implies a job interview.
When I went to their office everyone was very friendly and it was generally pleasant, other than the strong smell of vape pen.
I went and sat in an interview room with a recruiter to go over my CV. He proceed to get out someone else's CV. It's an easy mistake to pick up the wrong one from the printer but he then asked me about a manufacturing job I had in 2008, at this time I was not legally old enough to do a paper round. I look younger than my age if anything and he only noticed his mistake when I pointed this out to him.
He then asked if I could do a simple skill when on my CV it clearly states I am experienced on the topic. It would have been faster for him to do 10 seconds of reading than a minute of unnecessary questioning.
I was also told to "play the game" and not tell potential employers I was only after a temporary position, since I am university, so that they could apply for permanent positions for me and there would be more chance they could get a sale and I could get a job.
After going through the correct CV I was then asked which position I applied for since they had not yet told the company. Despite telling me it was so urgent that I had to cancel plans to come 24 hours faster.
The entire point of the meeting was to make sure I was entitled to work in the UK, get a list of transferable skills from previous position (which were listed on my CV) and sign up for their recruiting company.
Other than tricking people into signing up to their service, This could have been done online which would give the employees enough time to actually read the CVs of the applicants.
Ultimately, it appears they intentionally misled me to thinking it was a job interview to get me to sign up to their recruiting firm. It seems from the comments made about playing the game they aren t above misleading the companies who pay them either.
I dealt with Yvette at Meyer Scott who is very friendly and professional. Yvette sent me details of any assignments she felt would be suitable and kept me updated regularly as to how the application process was going. I would highly recommend Meyer Scott as even in the current job market where I am sure they are inundated with candidates you are still kept informed regularly and given personal service.
Meyer-Scott found me a job on the same day as applying! Very professional and helpful.
The staff at Meyer Scott were extremely professional and found me a new job within a week of registering with them.
Very professional and welcoming Staff. You seem in demand as soon as you register with them. They kept me updated and informed on what roles were coming up as well as prepare you for interviews. Literally within a week of registering, I'm now proud to say that Im in full time work. So thank you Meyer Scott Recruitment.
Yvette has been a great help with finding the right job for me and liasing with the company. Would highly recommend her services!
Abusive, threatening staff!! Call your number out of the blue, iv never registered with this company! When I queried where they got number I was faced with obstructive arrogant replies . A company operating like this! Avoid ! avoid!
Sue at Meyer Scott found me the perfect job even though my requirements were very specific. I was registered with some online recruitment agencies but found these very frustrating as no feedback and no replies for jobs applied for. I highly recommend Meyer Scott, they take time to discuss the role that will be best for you, always get back to you and find roles that match skills. Thanks Sue!
Really friendly understanding team, and lots of support given when finding a job
Yvette and the team are FANTASTIC! Look out for you every step of the way and always keep in touch to see how you are getting on in your role! Any questions they are straight there to answer them!
I have used Meyer Scott through the years first when I was temping, then to get a permanent role and finally for them to provide me with staff at the various companies I've worked for on my way up. They are approachable, professional and consistent. I will continue to work with them going forward.
After getting in contact with Meyer-Scott in relation to a opening they were advertising, I was pleased with the professional , and efficient communication Meyer-Scott provided. Welcoming me in for a face-to-face meeting within a couple of days, I couldn't recommend them higher!
Great service found a perfect job match for me, thanks so much
After trying other agencies in Peterborough and being given nothing but false hope and promises, Sally found the perfect role for me and negotiated terms to suit my circumstances. I truly hope this will be my forever job, but if I ever need to find another position, Meyer Scott will be my first port of call.
I signed with Sally from Meyer Scott Recruitment at least 4 years ago and I have to say after being signed up with so many different agencies Sally has been the most helpful of all.
Each time I have been in a situation whereby I have been looking for a different job, I have never hesitated to go back to Sally.
From the beginning Sally took the time to get to know me, which helped massively in trying to find the role which was best suited for me. I have now been placed in a role at Ideal Power by Sally and I have to say I have never been happier.
I would always recommend anyone to go to Sally, as i know she genuinely cares in someone finding a job where they will be happy in.
Very friendly helpful reactive people and have successfully managed to find a position quickly
Can't recomend them enough
Thank you for all your help
