Esther - Fordingbridge
“I would never have believed that I could trust a company to get the right calibre of staff that I knew I needed. Liz and the team have gone on to fill a further two vacancies for us. I would recommend Dovetail Recruitment to anyone who wants good staff.”
Finance Director
“Fantastic service from Liz and the team at Dovetail – really helped me build my confidence for the job interview and get the job I really wanted.”
Sally - Bournemouth
Dovetail has been very supportive with the search of my new role! They have been very responsive and helpful at all stages of the process. Highly recommend working with Dovetail. Big thank you to Francesca!
Jenny - Bournemouth
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would! The whole team at Dovetail have been so supportive and they talked me through every step of the way, giving me valuable advice, confidence in myself and helped me get my dream job! Thank you so much to all the staff at Dovetail!!”
Joanna - Blandford
“Dovetail has been amazing helping me find work in the Bournemouth area. They are driven to find the best role for candidates, with their great relationships with local businesses and knowledge of the area I would highly recommend this agency. The people are friendly, organised and have good communication, always following up on progress and results. Tiffany and Samantha both have worked above and beyond to secure my new role, couldn’t thank them enough.”
Lewis - Bournemouth
I would like to thank you, for your hard work. I have already recommended your firm to all my colleagues. After going through several agencies. You always kept me informed at each stage of the interview process, always followed each interview I attended with a curtesy call to see how things went. You have always listened. In my mind this is missing in todays agencies. As most only want the commission. Making you feel no longer  like a human but more a commodity. Keep up the sterling work and once again Thank you.
Roger - Bournemouth
“The attention given at all levels including gaining an understanding of my business and the initial selection and offering of potential candidates stands above all other agencies I have dealt with.”
Sales Director
I am very happy to give Dovetail Recruitment a full 5 star review. I have used them over the past few years to recruit for my team. They pre-screen candidates and I can be confident the CVs they pass over to me are relevant… Many of their candidates have been successful in the recruitment process and have gone on to become key contributors in the business. The team at Dovetail are great to work with. They listen and get to know your business and what you need, and then use all the information they have to find good candidate matches. I thoroughly recommend their personalised service.
Head of UK Retail
Full 5 stars deserved. Friendly, professional, efficient staff. Always available and ready to help. Definitely my best experience with a recruitment agency. Highly recommended!

“Dovetail Recruitment have always provided us with a friendly and very professional service. They worked at getting a great understanding of the business needs and our company culture. From this, they have provided candidates that have been a good “fit” for our business and made our recruitment process painless and cost-effective.”
Director
“We love working with Dovetail,  as we can trust them to follow process and deal with hiring manager directly, giving us the time to work on other urgent requirements. We have had great success with candidates that Dovetail has provided and can rely them to understand both the hiring manager’s and the business’ needs when sourcing. They are very well respected for their skills and attitude within the business and will always be our first call for any difficult vacancies!”

Marc - London
“I have been thoroughly impressed with the overall service provided by Dovetail. Tiffany took the time to really understand our business and culture and has only ever provided candidates that meet our needs exactly. Sometimes too well and we have been spoilt for choice, having to recruit two people as they were both too good to let go. I can highly recommend Dovetail, as having used large National agencies in the past and believing their service and networks were superior to a local agency, I have been totally converted and know this is not the case. Dovetail are now my first port of call.”
Head of Finance
Thank you so much for all your help.  I had not heard of yourselves until my daughter, Hannah put me in touch with you and I can honestly say my experience with you has been amazing. I am very grateful to you for being so kind and helpful and for all the guidance you have given to me.  It has been a real pleasure dealing with you and being offered a position so promptly is fantastic.
Christine - Bournemouth
I’m truly grateful for the support and guidance given to me throughout my job hunting process. Their knowledge and experience has proved invaluable and as an added bonus their pleasant manner and highly personable demeanour has made them a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!

“I couldn’t recommend Dovetail Recruitment enough! I’ve had experience with lots of agencies, but Dovetail are by far the best! They go above and beyond your expectations to help you find the right job. I worked directly with Samantha, and she was great, checking up on me through every step of the process. I highly recommend.”
Mary Louise - Poole

“Tiffany has been great to work with, always professional and provides high-quality candidates. When I have contacted Tiffany she discusses the role thoroughly to find out our particular needs, in addition to this she has and in-depth knowledge of the company allowing her to determine whether a candidate will fit well within the business. Tiffany will continue to be the first call when we have a vacancy open up and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance with recruitment.”
Executive Assistant to Chairman
I recently started my new job which was secured by Dovetail recruitment. I have to say I found Tiffany and her colleagues exceptionally friendly, professional to work with. I was on the hunt for a new role for about a year. In that time I dealt with numerous agencies. I found most quite difficult to work with as it appeared to me that they were just working to their own agenda rather that searching and putting me forward for roles that best suits my needs. I attended many interviews that were a waste of time because the agents did not listen to what my skill set was and what I was looking for. However, when Dovetail contacted me about my current role they understood everything which I wanted… Read more
Alina - Bournemouth
“I have received an excellent service from start to finish from Liz of Dovetail Recruitment. The whole process was seamless… they kept me well informed and helped me thorough each stage of my interview. Within one week I had two interviews, was offered the job and handed in my notice! I would 100% recommend Dovetail Recruitment to anyone who is looking to change career or take a dive off the deep end – the staff are friendly, exceptionally knowledgeable and very experienced and I can’t thank them enough for all their support. I was very apprehensive to leave the Local Authority after five years, but with their encouragement and resources they have found me the perfect role and I can… Read more
Cherisse - Poole
“Dovetail Recruitment is brilliantly professional and efficient.

Dovetail are friendly and professional – Suzi is brilliant and my go-to for marketing roles in this area. 
Jo - Bournemouth
“I would highly recommend Dovetail to my friends and family. They took time to find out about my requirements and only suggested positions available on this basis. To have a recruitment consultant that actually listens is very rare in my experience! I was very impressed with their professional, friendly efficient manner. Thank you again for all of your time and help, the customer service and genuine interest in my job search was outstanding.”
Kirsty - Bournemouth

If you are looking for employment & want genuine, reliable, trustworthy & expert help then I cannot stress how good Dovetail Recruitment are.”
