I worked with Sershen when he supported us with our Legal and Secretariat recruitment. He was extremely professional and provided a great service and some good quality candidates. I appreciated he was quick to respond to requests and was very good at keeping candidates engaged while selling our brand externally. I hope we can work together in the future and would recommend him if you are looking for a conscientious recruiter.

What do clients say
Sershen and I have worked together on a couple of roles where I needed support with a quick turnaround and also needed to source high calibre candidates. I found Sershen to be very collaborative, knowledgeable, reliable, and his client engagement style was second to none. Sershen is someone who really listened to what I needed - both in terms of candidate profile, calibre, role fit, culture fit, and process adherence for us. I trust him as an expert in his field - open, honest, sincere and approachable; he knows his market well and will share insight as requested. I have no hesitation in recommending Sershen, and I'm sure I will be working with him again in future.
I worked with Sershen on hiring an in-house Legal Counsel position. He quickly understood the business and role requirements, sending over relevant candidates in short notice. I was impressed by the standard of candidate shared and we quickly filled the role, I would use his services in the future.
Sershen was a pleasure to work with when I decided to look for a new role. He took the time to listen to what I was looking for and offered honest and impartial advice. He also handled negotiations on both sides efficiently and effectively. He would be the first person I’d contact, if I choose to move on from my current position.
