Why Big hitters join Yolk

Read MoreI met with both Dale and Duncan and it was clear that the synergy was apparent from the first meeting. I wanted to be part of the Yolk family immediately.
The business is forward thinking and open to change and we never want to stand still like so many other recruiters. We are constantly striving to be better and never rest on our goal to be the number 1 recruiter in South Wales and the South West.
We celebrate together and support each other through the tough times. We of course have many challenges but it’s the small things we do, that little bit extra, that sets us apart.

Read MoreAfter 10 years in the whirlwind that is the recruitment world, I decided country life was no longer for me and the city called me back…
With careful research, and ‘the eye’ to pick out the best agency, I interviewed with Dale and Duncan at Yolk. I was over the moon to be offered the role of Principal Consultant to join Yolk's Engineering Team. Following two years of ultimately learning a new market from the best of the best, an internal opportunity arose to head up the Finance Division which I'm thrilled to have been offered.
Now fully immersed into my new challenge, I am loving every moment. Yolk is a culture in itself, the people are a second family to me and the perks speak for themselves! The support is exceptional, the values and the vision we all share is unmatched. I couldn’t be luckier to be a part of such a smashing business!

Read MoreI started at Yolk around 2 and half years ago, I had no recruitment experience, not even any sales experience. But I had an intense, fun and unique training programme which helped me understand how to be a top recruiter.
From starting off as an Associate to being promoted to Senior Consultant, you get such fantastic support and encouragement from senior management, if you put the work in the doors will open for you.
If you don’t want career progression, excellent earning potential, quality lunches and various social events, then Yolk isn’t for you.

Read MoreLike many others in Yolk, I had previous recruitment experience when I joined, but I can honestly say Yolk is where my recruitment career really started. Yolk provided indepth training including classroom discussions and ‘on the floor’ work, but most importantly I was supported all the way. For me, this is where Yolk stand out from the rest.
Most companies don’t offer the same supportive and positive attitude that everybody has here, from associate consultants all the way up to the Directors. Now I'm running my own desk within IT and mentoring associate consultants. Yolk has allowed me to advance personally and professionally.
