Wendy is undoubtedly a professional of the highest integrity who will ensure you as the client gets the best possible candidate for your business.
Her creative ability to think outside the square and her understanding of the HR and recruitment industry has set her apart from the rest. She doesn't just want the best person for the job she looks for the right person for that job. In this current economic time I would advise you to take the time to find out what recruitment and HR solutions she has for your business needs.
We were not expecting the services that we obtained when hiring Wendy and we certainly were not aware that we were hiring a partner who would grow with us and ensure our needs would be surpassed. I highly recommend using Wendy as your HR, recruitment specialist, that is if you are wanting to remove all concerns in this area of your business. She will ensure that you can continue to focus on your business, while all your needs are being surpassed with hers.

Insurance Accountant
For my first full-time job after finishing my studies, I never imagined I'd be working at such a great place. It is a job I enjoy and a company that I truly believe in. My job is more engaging and challenging than any job I've ever had. The facilities are fantastic, the people are brilliant and I enjoy going into work everyday. It is also amazing to feel valued and like my work is important, and the people at [company name removed] have made me feel like that since day one. The training program I participated in last week was great and has really helped me with the on-the-job training I'm still receiving. I feel like it is a place where I can develop my own skills and work experience. It also offers real opportunities for progression and an outstanding amount of support from all the staff, from my colleagues on the administration and client services teams all the way up to senior management.
I wanted to thank you very much for securing such an amazing opportunity for me, and for your efficiency, sincerity and professionalism in the management of my recruitment process. i have dealt with other recruitment agencies in the past that were impersonal, unprofessional and misleading, but you and CityWide are completely the opposite. You responded to me so quickly and I felt like my application was in good hands from the first contact. The interview tips you sent me were fantastic, and I am sure that without them I wouldn't have been successful. I am also very appreciative of the fact that i wasn't kept in the dark about my application; you kept me up to date every step of the way which was really nice and eliminated the stress of applying for a job. And thank you so much for your kind card that I received at the office last week!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for your help! I came to you at a time when things were uncertain, and it was over in a matter of days all because of your outstanding service.

CityWide’s casual and temporary jobs are the most exciting in terms of actual work and remuneration. I had a fabulous assignment in Darwin for several months that included accommodation and FIFO, as well as several roles in Sydney over both short and longer terms up to six months. I have even undertaken assignments for half days that have been more fun than work. All my jobs with CityWide were with the most reputable businesses in the insurance market with the most pleasant and cohesive environments. CityWide has always treated me as a friend in a very professional environment and I will always be happy to work for any short term assignment that CityWide may recommend. I have no hesitation in recommending CityWide Personnel to my friends.

She made sure I was ready for anything and everything the interview process might throw at me and given her experience was able to give me valuable insight into the firm that I am now working for.
