Candidate Testimonials

Just want to say a big massive thank you to my account manager and the New Directions team for all their hard work they have done, and are still putting in, to help me find work! I’ve been with New Directions since last year and have never been happier! Not only do they help you find work, they keep in touch with you to see how you’re doing and would help you straight away if there is anything you’re unsure of! Thank you so much.

Since working for New Directions I have built a great relationship with all the girls, they always work with me when it comes to my needs as far as my family, ensuring I can work around childcare and finding me long term part time roles to suit my family life. I have previously worked with other agencies in the past and nothing compares to New Directions as far as communication and feedback goes, I would highly recommend  this company.

Rachel, Teaching Assistant

My Account Manager is excellent. Not only is she a delight to speak to but she also genuinely is passionate about ensuring I can get work when I need it at a location that fits around my lifestyle.

My Account Manager has been really helpful in ensuring that any work she has offered me does not impact on my own childcare commitments which was my number one priority when I joined ND. She always checks I am happy before I accept a new job.

When I have struggled in a role, she has always tried her best to find me something that suits my skills.

Ive had nothing but positive experiences with New Directions.

Kind regards

I would like to say how much I have benefited not only from my account manager’s personal help but from the aid of the team members.

You have aided me by showing me work in the SEN area which is of benefit to my skills and also by identifying certain courses which may be of use to me.

I would also like to mention how much I have benefited from the use of my New Directions employee portal to input and read agency and work information.

I am very satisfied at present with the aid of my personal contact within the agency and the education team members in general.

I have been registered with several agencies in the last few years and hardly got any work, just the odd day here and there. Since I registered with New Directions I started at a long term placement almost straight away.

If I have a query or need help with anything my consultant Kerry is always happy to help and I am always greeted in a friendly and positive manner.

I’m so thankful to the team at New Directions. They have helped me change my career path and now I get so much more time with my children. The team are kind, polite and very good at finding you the perfect placement. I have worked solid since January and loving every minute.

Claire, Teaching Assistant, Cardiff

Thanks for all your help in the last year. I have been fortunate to have your support and offering me the opportunity that suits me. You always listen to my needs and helped accordingly finding the job I need.

Thanks again and look forward to continue working with this organisation.

I found New Directions on my browser when I was looking for extra work as a key stage one teacher. Within 24 hours I had registered with ND and within one week I was working. I love the fact that ND don’t put pressure on you to work if it is not required, their ‘on-line’ availability calendar is a great idea and eliminates last minute phone-calls when work is not required for whatever reason. My account manager who deals with my bookings is a credit to the recruitment industry as she has an entirely new approach to the candidate’s needs and preferences.
To sum up New Directions in 3 words is difficult as I’d love to say more bet here goes:

Honest, caring, eager.
