What our consultants say

What is better than our recruiters’ opinions to get an idea of what it’s like to work for us!

I started my Approach People success story in Dublin, in 2008. My first international experience! Working in a multicultural environment enabled me to grow quickly, both professionally and personally! I also have been able to work 3 months from home in France. Trust and flexibility have a place of honour in this company! On top of that, I can work on the French market in its entirety and even beyond!

Approach People a été un vrai tremplin dans ma carrière ! J’ai commencé il y a deux ans en tant que Talent Acquisition Specialist au sein du service RH et j’ai rapidement évolué sur un poste de Talent Acquisition Manager, me permettant aujourd’hui de gérer une équipe de 2 personnes. Grâce à notre environnement multiculturel et les cours de langue j’ai pu améliorer très rapidement mon anglais. Je recrute aujourd’hui des profils internationaux pour plusieurs pays !

Les projets RH sur lesquels j’interviens sont stimulants et me permettent d’intervenir sur différentes problématiques. C’est un plaisir de travailler dans un environnement dynamique avec des collaborateurs passionnés par leurs métiers.

Si vous aimez travailler dans un environnement multilingue, fun et dynamique alors Approach People est fait pour vous ! J’ai démarré en stage à Dublin, puis j’ai eu l’opportunité de revenir à Paris au bout de 4 ans. J'ai fêté mes 10 ans de poste ! Travailler et faire la fête avec les collègues des autres bureaux européens lors de la Christmas party où tout le monde est réuni est très enrichissant.

J'ai démarré l'aventure Approach People à Dublin, courant 2018. Première expérience à l'international ! Évoluer dans un environnement multiculturel m'a permis de grandir très rapidement, aussi bien sur le plan professionnel que personnel !

J'ai aussi pu travailler 3 mois depuis chez moi en France. Confiance et flexibilité sont à l'honneur dans cette société ! En plus, je peux travailler sur l'intégralité du marché français et même au-delà !

Approach People gives a challenging opportunity to develop your career in Recruitment working across different industries and locations in a multicultural and dynamic work place. There's a great office environment, where we have a great mixture of fun and hard work. In my personal case, Approach People gave the opportunity to join the Dublin office managing the Spanish market and to relocate to Spain opening a brand new office in Madrid, now we are growing!

Flexibility and Trust

11/02/2019

★★★★★

Great company that trusts employees by allowing them to work from home. Have been doing it for years and love it. Even though I have had bad months here and there, they continued to trust me in the long run.

Cons: Working from home can be difficult if you are not organised properly. It took me a few months to find the perfect set up in my home and a good schedule to stick with.

Advice to Management: Continue to believe in your staff and to give them the flexibility they need to grow both professionally but also personally.
Good International Opportunity
Dublin, Ireland - 01/10/2018

Pros: Being an International Recruitment Consultant in Approach people Recruitment is a very good opportunity to grow in a multicultural environment. The headquarter in Dublin allows to work with many different nationalities, languages, countries. We work on a wide variety of positions, clients, industry and even countries. Team spirit and fun are there too.

Cons: Recruitment in an agency is not HR, you need to have a commercial approach of your job and be able to talk everyday about figures, KPI's and money.

Advice to Management: The company could develop its Corporate Social Responsibility.
Dynamic environment, professional approach & open-minded management
24/03/2017

Pros: Healthy & open communication among peers or management. Strong company culture with a motivating rewarding system.Although guidelines/processes are provided, good autonomy/flexibility is given to achieve goals/targets.

Cons: No major cons. While it offers a lot of pros bigger players cannot compete with, Approach People can only miss out on some of the stronger brands' assets.
Love it!

Dublin, Ireland - 15/04/2019

★★★★★

Pros: Inclusive work environment with a great culture. Great leadership, supportive & challenging in equal measures. Clear progression plans are on offer if you are willing to work for it Strong commission structure. Rewarded and acknowledged for hard work regardless of billings Great social team organizing events to cater for all team members . I genuinely love my job and there are not many people that can say that nowadays.

Cons: Very few things to complain about. Would be great if we had the option to choose between normal desk and standing desk but that's just me being very picky!

Advice to Management: Thanks for being approachable and available. Great to see that you give as much attention and care to all levels of staff.

Good Experience so far!
Dublin, Ireland - 01/10/2018

Pros: I have joined Approach People only a few months ago and couldn't be happier! This is my first "real" experience in a office environment so I wasn't sure what to expect. Everybody has been very welcoming and the atmosphere is great.

Cons: Would love to meet employees from other offices or get to communicate with them more regularly. Looking forward to the annual event at the end of the year!

Advice to Management: No comment for the moment.

Excellent Experience at Approach People
Barcelona, Spain - 07/06/2018

Really Great experience at Approach People! Really nice environment to work in and progress in. The fact that we are all speaking different languages is very interesting and the best way to improve our English. Would totally recommend Approach People not only for the benefits, but also for the company itself (great colleagues, managers and environment).

Pros: Free Breakfast, Free Drinks and Fruit. Amazing office, training, good management
Amazing place to work in sunny Barcelona !

I Have been working in Approach people now for just over a year and a 3 months. I enjoyed this experience within an international environment with nice and professional people ! The management have been excellent as well. The business model is based on meritocracy. "work hard, pay hard !" Opportunities are made for you in the company and if things don't work out the managers actually will help you to find a solution. I can recommend this company for anyone that is looking for a new position in recruitment within a multicultural environment !

Dublin, Ireland - 19/02/2019

★★★★★

Approach People provides amazing career opportunities to ambitious professionals. What I love about this company is that if you are entrepreneurial and organised, your opportunity are endless!

The managers of the Parisian, Madrid and Barcelona office were all current employees who made their way up, starting as International Recruiter and ending up as Manager of an office!

I really developed my knowledge about the recruitment world but also about the European job market. Being in contact with all the teams in Spain, in Switzerland, in France and in Ireland teach you a lot on the cultural differences in business.

You also get so many rewards for your hard work with quarterly challenges (to win Ipad, TV, Weekend in Europe, Hugo Boss Suit, pair of Louboutin...etc...), the annual challenge (we can travel to dream locations for a week!), the awards offered during the New Year party and finally the commission structure that is uncapped and start from the 1st euro!

I am already flying higher since I join them, and it is just the beginning!Thank you Approach People!
Great place to work !
Paris, France - 01/01/2019

The company culture is great, currently working in the center of Paris we always have a good time within and outside working hours! We work on a great atmosphere, there is no competition between recruiters. It feels good to work here ! I would totally recommend Approach People not only for the benefits and rewards, but also for the management. Great opportunities to grow up, I have started 2 years ago as an intern in Dublin and I am currently working in Paris as an International Recruitment Consultant.

Pros: Bonus scheme, social events, management, great culture.

Cons: There is no meal voucher.
Really good recruitment consulting firm and team where it's good to work !!!
Senior Recruitment Consultant - Dublin, Ireland – 15/05/2017

Cabinet in which individual and collective performances complement each other perfectly. Leaders promote initiatives and empower consultants. We enjoy a freedom in prospecting and negotiation which is very appreciable. We have the opportunity to work for very beautiful accounts and this in any field of activity. The accompanying methodology is highly appreciated by the candidates. To summarise, the only limit on which progress can be made in the society is that which is given to us.
