Candidate Feedback
Over the last 4+ years we have loved placing an abundance of professionals. Here is some of the feedback from our candidates
Steve has been absolutely amazing!! I have recently found myself looking for work and found Steve to be extremely professional, understanding, honest and really looks out for his clients needs and wants! Steve was straight onto possible roles for me and had an offer on the table for me less then a week after contacting him!
I have also worked with Steve over the last few years from a management perspective and again always found Steve to be professional, hard working, communicated well and always put the best candidates forward to me!
I would highly recommend Steve to both anyone looking for work or anyone looking for a new employee! Absolute stand out recruiter who you can trust and have confidence that he will always do what’s best for you, without be pushy! Will certainly be using Steve again if ever job hunting!
Thanks again for all you hard work Steve!!!
I have dealt with quite a few recruiters in the past two years and I can honestly say Nicole has been the best.
Nicole is extremely friendly and professional. She answered all my questions and checked in with me before and after my interview, as well as leading up to my commencement.
I would recommend Nicole to all
After just one interview you were able to match me with the perfect role and employer plus interview same day! I have never had this kind of experience before and I highly recommend Steve and Oyster People.
Thank you! Denise.
I have recently had the pleasure of dealing with Paige who represents Oyster People in the property recruitment space. Paige has not only been a delight to speak with and discuss opportunities with but has been prompt, diligent and understanding of my requirements. She recommended me for a role which not only ticks my short term requirements but also my long term prospects to enhance my career. I could not recommend Paige and the Oyster team highly enough.
After a small break from the workforce, and being through some rough personal times, I had applied for many different positions. With a huge range of skills, I began to doubt my self-worth. Steve rang me after I applied for a position, and definitely gave me back my self-confidence but redirecting me to a position he had available that truly highlighted my abilities. His manner, confidence and attention to what I was looking for, was a true gift!
Thank you immensely for all of your priceless help and guidance Steve, you went over and above what most people do. From our very first interview you made me feel welcomed and I know this may sound crazy but you made me feel like a person of importance, the result of this made me feel far more confident going into the interview, I hadn’t been to an interview since 2001 so I feel very grateful to you for this. On a scale from 1 – 10, I give you a 10 due to your ongoing support and going the extra mile
I would highly recommend Oyster People as a Recruitment Agency to anyone looking for work. I have been consistently impressed with Steve’s attitude since the first day we spoke. During the time that he has helped me with the recruitment process, I found Steve very friendly, easy to deal with and hard-working. He helped me secure an amazing job, which I absolutely love. I’m sure that his efficiency will help other candidates to find a great job and also to have the important support that I had.
“Steve has been great and gone over and beyond to help me secure my dream job. He is so easy to deal with and very professional. I would highly recommend Steve to get you into that perfect position. I cannot thank you enough for all the hard work you put into helping me Steve.”
“I have dealt with a lot of recruitment agencies throughout my time and I must say that Paige at Oyster People would have to be by far the most pleasant and most proactive to deal with. She got me an interview straight away and secured the position the following day. She always kept in touch with me throughout the process and touched base with me after I started. Would highly recommend her services to anyone.”
“Exceptional support from Paige, after my job was made redundant, I called her to see if she could help me find work. Within the first week I was sent for a job interview. She is very humble, professional and above most friendly, which is what is needed in this industry!! I have never come across a recruiter who calls, texts and emails daily to touch base and to see where everything is at!!
Def 5 plus stars for Paige… highly recommended!!
Thank you so very much Steve for your assistance with helping me secure my new role. After 5 years with the one company I decided it was time for a change. Steve was easy to talk to and made the entire process stress free. I secured my new role after just one interview and I’m very excited to take the next step in my career with a fantastic company. Thank you again Steve
I would highly recommend Steve Inman of Oyster people – he listens carefully to employment requirements and is happy to advise on a role he considers would be a good fit.
He is empathetic and intuitive and an excellent communicator. Steve ensured that my recent employment process was stress free and straight forward.
I just wanted to send a big thank you to you for your fast approach in finding me my forever job. You worked super-fast to put everything in place in such a short space of time! I am forever thankful.
I would highly recommend Steve Inman from oyster recruiting. He was very professional & most helpful in gaining my new employment & arranging interviews with excellent feedback.
Steve made the whole process easy & smooth. Thank you – Judy
Stephen Inman recently assisted me in securing my new role. My job searches up until that point had been filled with stumbling blocks and despite having a lot of relevant experience in my industry, things dragged out and it became incredibly frustrating and a source of anxiety. Over the course of four months, I dealt with several recruitment consultants and received a lot of overpromising and under delivering.
However, Stephen restored my faith! The same morning, I submitted my application, Stephen contacted me and promptly arranged to meet and discuss the role further. I found Stephen to be very approachable, knowledgeable and helpful in providing guidance in the lead up to my interview with my prospective new employer.
Throughout the process Stephen was upbeat, easily contactable and always happy to help in any way he could. I was over the moon when he called to let me know I had the job, it was such a relief! Thanks Stephen for all of your help!
From the moment that I started to talk to Stephen he was professional and listened to everything that I wanted outed of my next job and tried to match me with the jobs that he had at the time. He was able to find me a great job which was everything I wanted. Even when I contacted Oyster People a few years later looking for another job, they did everything they could trying to find a suitable role. I would recommend Oyster People to others that I know in the industry. I felt like I was important and they listened to everything I wanted and put me forward for the right jobs.
I have dealt with a few recruitment agencies during my real estate career, but the quality of service provided by Steve from Oyster People was second to none. Steve went above & beyond to help me in the search for my new position. From the initial email advising me of the position, up to negotiating the terms of my employment Steve has been fantastic. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services to any prospective employee.
Steve at Oyster People is absolutely fantastic, highly recommend him, he is extremely helpful with your search for employees and for employers.
He works enthusiastically for you, constant feedback and communication is paramount with Steve and it is so refreshing in the recruitment industry.
Steve listens to what your needs and requirements are and strives to match you with the perfect employer, focusing on locality of the employment, your personality and your abilities and experience to be able to perform the position that is available.
He communicates well with the employer to get a immediate response as quickly as possible for you, provides their concerns to you to get a clearer indication if the employer would be satisfied in employing you.
If Steve feels you are suited for the position securing an interview immediately is made and also calls you to see how you went after the interview. Hes a great communicator and does his work extremely well.
Having worked with other recruitment agencies he doesn’t waste your time and doesn’t provide false promises, a real person and that’s what its all about, real people, real honesty and integrity.
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for your assistance with placing me with Ray White.
I’ve had a few experiences with recruiters in the past and none have been as helpful and professional as you. I really appreciated your fantastic communication and keeping me up to date, and assisting in the negotiation process.
Not that I will need any assistance in the near future, as I will be very happy at Ray White, however, i will definitely recommend you to anyone who is looking for a new role or (needing a new employee)!
Thank you!
My experience with Oyster People has been nothing less than fantastic. Steve Inman was very quick to reply to emails and phone calls and his communication to let you know what the next step is and how to go about it was great. Because of fast and informative communication, it made you prepared with what to expect or do next. For any employers wanting a reliable employment company I would not go anywhere apart from Oyster People. I could not thank them enough. They made the whole process easy. Thank you!
Thanks again mate.
Oyster People have been nothing but a delight to work with. They are dedicated professionals that not only help you to find a job but also take the time to listen to what you are after and deliver. I have been impressed and will definitely recommend them to friends and families.
Oyster People have put me into a great position, they listened to my requirements very carefully and produced the goods! Steve listened to me and didn’t try to push me into a role that wasn’t right which so rare nowadays. I highly recommend Oyster people
I worked with Steve at Oyster People this year when I wanted a career change. Steve took the time to get to actually know me and help me move into the direction I wanted. He then used his knowledge and connections and had multiple interviews set up for me. However, after my first interview, as I was driving away I had received a call from Steve checking in as he had already followed up with the company. He was more excited about this opportunity for me than myself. Steve looked after my career change from start to finish and I am now with an amazing company and building my career. Thank you, Steve.
Thank you Oyster People for finding me such a fantastic position, you work very efficiently which is so appreciated when you are out of work, you were diligent, listened and come across like you actually care which is very rare nowadays.
I received an email from Steve advising me of suitable roles within my area and a followed up with a phone call. He explained what the role was and in what suburb – knowing this was important to me. My CV was sent to the client and an interview was organised through Steve. I received great feedback and also was successful in securing the role!! I would not hesitate to recommend Oyster people as dealing with Steve was simple and straightforward.
Thank you so much Steve for all of your help. I was so nervous for my interview, but your advice and tips really put my mind at ease. You listened to my requirements and seemed to care which made me trust you – Thank you Steve.
I’m very pleased to provide this letter of recommendation for Stephen Inman. He is an outstanding recruiter. I have been consistently impressed with Stephen’s attitude since the first day he contacted me for a position of Property Manager. He prepared me extremely well for interviews, was very patient with me & kept in constant contact. Seeing that I am moving back to Brisbane, Stephen helped me with licensing requirements as well as coordinating with relevant authorities on my behalf. I don’t remember the last time a recruiter did that for me.
I definitely recommend Stephen as a Recruitment Consultant. I’m sure that his efficiency will help other candidates to find a good job and also to have this important support that I had. Professional, thorough and consistently going the extra mile are but just a few reasons that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stephen for anyone looking for a new career change.
I have never known such a fast recruitment agency to work as fast. They called me within 20 minutes of applying and met me the same day. Within 48 hours I was offered an interview which is now my new position. Thank you, Oyster People.
I utilised Steve at Oyster people to find myself a new position. I emailed him my resume and he contacted me back within 30 minutes of receiving it. I was looking for a unique role and explained my requirements to Steve. That afternoon he had arranged an interview for me and I was offered the job on the spot. Steve had listened to my requirements and found me a perfect fit, the first time. I was very impressed with the service.
I am now a client of Oyster people and use them to recruit for our agency. I am pleased to report that the last 2 candidates we employed were referred from Oyster people and I couldn’t be happy with their calibre of skill. They are exactly what I was looking for and Steve delivered again.
I would have no hesitation recommending Steve and his team.
It is so rare to deal with a recruitment agency that are actually humble and caring! Dealing with Steve has been such a pleasant experience. I have known exactly where I was from day 1! The feedback has been exceptional, and I highly recommend Oyster People.
I made the move to the Gold Coast from New Zealand and was looking for a Property Management position.
I applied for a role through Oyster People, and within hours had a call from one of their representatives! I found them to be proactive, honest and really easy to communicate with. We chatted about what I was wanting out of a role and discussed not only the ideal role, but what kind of people I gel with, my goals, my family situation etc, It truly felt like they took the time to get to know me before putting me forward for a couple of available positions.
This meant they found a business which matched me, not only did it tick all my boxes, but they managed to position me in a role 2km from home!
Since being placed with LJHOOKER I have had the opportunity to interview other candidates who have gone through Oyster People, thet literally match people with people.
I highly recommend them as they want the best result for the business and the candidate.
Three of my colleagues have all been placed by Oyster People.
I have been very impressed with Oyster Peoples professionalism. They have been so easy to deal with and are very good at communicating throughout my process of finding a new role. Thank you for finding me such a great role and I will be recommending you to all of my real estate friends.
I would like to thank Oyster People in particular Steve for such fantastic service, I had no idea what I wanted to do as I have had some bad experiences within real estate but your communication, meeting me and explaining that not all real estate agencies are bad made me give the industry another go – I am now extremely happy and being looked after in my current role.
“I had the pleasure of having Jasmine contact me for a new position. She is full of energy and has an amazing personality that just lifts you when you are tired and worn out from the busy day.
She listened to me and my situation took all that into consideration, then matched me with a position that is just exactly the type suitable for me with a wonderful caring team of people.
Most recruiters will just push you for any old job but not Jasmine, she took her time to get to know me before I even went for an interview with her.
If you are looking for a recruiter that truly cares, contact Jasmine at Oyster people.”
“Jasmine Hodge at Oyster People recruited me for a role this year when I was looking for a job. At first, I applied for the role of Asset Accounts Manager. Subsequently, on the same day I received a phone call from Jasmine. She said you are appropriate and suited for this role. She asked me to explain a bit about my current role, my goal and myself. Then she arranged an interview with her for the next day. Then on 12th of July she arranged an interview with the company. After my interview I called her and told her it went well. She was so excited about my performance. Then finally after 40 minutes later she called me and confirmed that I got the job. I was extremely surprised. Only because of Jasmine I got the job. Thanks a lot Jasmine. I am deeply thankful for you. Thanks to Oyster people.”
“After working for 11 years being self-employed, I decided to have a change in my career path and subsequently replied to an ad that Jasmine Hodge had placed on behalf of her clients. After receiving a call back from Jasmine, I found the whole process a lot less stressful than I imagined and our conversations that we had put my mind at ease knowing that I was in good hands.
Jasmine has a great skill, thoroughly explaining the role that I wanted to pursue making my experience a lot more pleasing, unlike other recruitment agents that I was in contact with. Within a few days I had secured my preferred role with great terms and I was thoroughly satisfied.
I am looking forward to starting this new role only 7 days after I had been contacted to be recommended.
What a great recruiter, I could not ask any more from Jasmine with this entire process.
Big Thanks to you
You are a real star!!”
Jasmine at Oyster has been the most caring and honest recruiters that I have dealt with. She is not only professional but is actively working for your benefit to ensure that you are provided with the best and most suitable opportunities. She has gone above and beyond in her duties and I would happily recommend her and use Oyster again in future.
Thanks again.
I have been dealing with Jasmine over the past few months during my job search. Whilst I was dealing with MANY other recruiters, Jasmine stood out to me the most because to her vibrant personality and continuous effort to assist me in finding the perfect role.
She never tried to bring my expectations down or convince me that my experience was “not good enough” to fill more a managerial role.
She has been fabulous in every aspect and I would just like to thank her for all of her hard work and support. She will be my first choice the next time I’m looking for a new role and I will recommend her to anyone looking for work in real estate.
I admit that at times I was difficult to deal with as I had an exact idea of the role that I wanted and I did not slightly lower my expectations. I had been looking for a new role since November 2018 and last week signed the letter of offer from Urban Land Housing. Despite that, Jasmine continued to work with me and never showed any displeasure in doing so.
Jasmine from Oyster people Recruitment found me one of the best jobs I have ever had!!
As an over fifty something looking for a job it can be daunting. Jasmine kept in touch where other real estate recruiters didn’t. Thank you Jasmine, for your friendly professional service & I can highly recommend Oyster People if you need to find a job.
A big thumbs up & thanks again
I have been dealing with Jasmine Hodge, she recently helped me secure the most amazing job at Roger Mickhail Property and just wanted to let you know I could not of got where I am now without her and her dedication!
She has gone above and beyond throughout the entire process, making me feel comfortable and relaxed through a somewhat nerve-racking situation, her Guidance and support helped me land my dream job. She has been amazing to deal with, lovely to chat with and overall just amazing!! Her feedback and checking up to see if I am happy means so much, and it is truly appreciated.
I would highly recommend Jasmine and Oyster People to anyone looking for a realestate career as they knew exactly what I wanted and did all they could to get me there
Thanks for everything Jasmine!!
Jasmine made contact initially via email, and after we spoke she presented to me three possible opportunities. She discussed each opportunity into great detail, and we both were very transparent of what I and the companies were looking for. She was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and comfortable to speak with. I highly recommend Jasmine
