Marc - London
“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
“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!”
Internal Recruiter
“Tiffany has been absolutely fantastic. I wasn’t happy in my role and I needed a change. Recruiters always call you and try to sell you a role on more money with the same skill set- because that will benefit them commission wise. I didn’t feel I was being listened to, as to what I wanted as my situation was very unique with relocating and changing completely. Tiffany listened, understood and put two brilliant roles in front of me, both which I had an interview for. She kept in touch with me and genuinely seemed interested in who I am as an individual and not a number she can place to make her monthly target. I’ve now relocated and am a month into a role I adore. For the first time in a lon… Read more
Charlotte - Poole
“Laura and her colleagues were exceptionally friendly and very professional to work with. They kept me informed at all times with how the proceedings were going and I never felt I couldn’t call up and ask for their opinions. Laura and her team made me feel welcome and approached me with many different job opportunities which would best suit my abilities and interests. After two interviews I was accepted for the job. I would like to thank Dovetail for making this process so easy for me. I would recommend using them in the future.”
Ella - Bournemouth
“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
“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
I’ve worked with Dovetail Recruitment for the last few years, both as a candidate and now a client. They really take the time to understand our business, and the qualities I’m looking for in a candidate. 
They take the time to match these criteria; so I know I can rely on them to give me several really strong contenders for a role, and they’re usually successful. 
They just know who’s going to be a great fit for us. Plus, they’re all a real pleasure to work with, very efficient – highly recommend!.  
Brand Manager
“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
“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

Chartered Financial Planner
“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
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 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
“I had a great experience with Dovetail from the point of application all the way through to feedback after interviews. Samantha and the team were really helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They took time to understand what exactly I was looking for from new employment and I am very grateful for the time and effort put in.”
Jessica - Candidate
“What a breath of fresh air! – Laura and the team worked to find me the perfect role and supported me throughout the application and interview process. Friendly and professional. Highly Recommend.”
Esther - Fordingbridge
“We have been working with Dovetail Recruitment since May 2014 and always find Liz and her team to be friendly, helpful and professional. Unlike other recruitment agencies, they have taken the time to understand our business and specific needs. As a result, the candidates that are put forward by Dovetail are by far more relevant to the role and are of high standard. Dovetail have already successfully filled vacancies for us in administration, HR, marketing, accounting and yard operations and we look forward to continuing to build on our working relationship.”
Operations Manager
“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 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
