THE Basingstoke office of Wise Employment opened last week and became the 12th branch for this successful, independent recruitment agency.

Wise Employment was born from one man's desire to open a company that offered a truly personal, cost effective and quality-driven service.

Personnel share one goal, one mind and one mission - "to be the best at what we do".

If you are looking for work, then Wise Employment can help, offering employment within office, call centre, linguistics, industrial and driving sectors.

Many of their recruitment consultants have backgrounds in these specific industries, enabling them to really understand you and your needs.

Branch manager Sharon Garrod said: "I believe what sets us apart form our competition is that we offer a truly consultative service to both client companies and candidates alike.

"Our intention is to prove that we are true recruitment professionals with a passion for providing a first-class service that is realistic, honest and reliable."

Charna Porter, one of Wise Employment's most successful permanent consultants, joins Sharon, having transferred from a Berkshire branch, together with operations manager Leigh Walker.

Candidates can take advantage of a range of services, including training on various software, CV layout guidance, advice on interview techniques and numerous local discounts.

Services for companies include advertisement response handling, call centre staffing, on-site management, skill evaluations tailormade to their needs, and traditional temporary and permanent staffing solutions.

To find out more about what Wise Employment can do for you, call in to the offices at 35 Winchester Street, Basingstoke, or call Sharon Garrod on 01256 819860.
