“Engaging, dependable with great account managers”
I find KMK Recruitment to be very engaging, dependable and high in integrity. Within all of the companies I have worked for I’ve continued to use KMK for their cross market knowledge and they have continued to identify several people for our company successfully. Additionally, when I have been in need of immediate short term staffing assistance; KMK was quick to help. The team are always efficient at their job and it’s a pleasure to recommend them as an accomplished recruiting agency. Amy, Senior Talent Acquisition Manager, HR, Global PR
