We were looking for someone who would take the hassle out of finding suitable people needed to expand our business. We wanted someone who would be reliable, would take or return our calls quickly and someone who would actually listen to what we were looking for in different roles.
I have used Lindsay at Halo for the last couple of years and to the point where she now has exclusive first option on all of our recruitment on a national basis. I have found her to be resourceful and honest but the biggest thing is that she has got results for us.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Lindsay and her company.
Paul – Sales Director (Commercial Vehicle Hire)
A big thank you to halo and in particular Lindsay, finding the right staff has always been a big problem for us. halo's expertise at sifting through hundreds of applications and short-listing only the very best applicants not only saved us time but brought together an excellent choice of top quality candidates.
halo personnel worked alongside us all the way through, advising on the job advert, it's placement and content, they kept us in touch with the progress of the advert and the candidates that had applied.
halo also provided us with training in several areas of the recruitment process and they sat in and gave advice on the interviews.
A thoroughly professional comprehensive service which I would recommend to any company requiring the right staff.
Once again Thank You to all at halo personnel.

Having dealt with Lindsay Dalton I have found her to be very helpful, professional and courteous, nothing seems to be too much trouble for her.
Not only has Lindsay been consistently providing us with high calibre candidates (sometimes at very short-notice) but she have always taken the time to listen and make sure they fully understand what is required which has proven to make all the difference with finding us quality personnel to fit in with our existing team.
Many thanks
Jon - Customer Service Manager (Furniture Wholesale)
As we start 2009 I would just like to say a big thank you for all your hard work in 2008 (and before of course) and wish you a happy and successful year.
2008 was quite a challenging year with regard to staffing issues but with your help, personal and professional service I am please to say that all the hurdles were overcome and I can say without any hesitation that it could not have been done without you.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to any new prospective client and would be only too happy to speak to anybody if they require a personal reference.
Kind Regards and Thanks again!’
Ian - Managing Director – (Business Service Industry)
I’d like to say a huge thank you for your support and professionalism with our most recent recruitment drive. You have proven to be everything you claim to be, giving 110% throughout the whole process. We enjoyed a speedy, structured and friendly service, were given honest, comprehensive detail about all candidates and you even managed to do all this with extremely competitive rates (fantastic!)
Thanks once again and we look forward to working with halo personnel in the future.
Graham - Managing Director – (Sports and Recreation)
Finding the right person to fill a key position is never easy and sometimes feels like a bit of a gamble. Having worked along side halo personnel in a professional capacity I can honestly say they made the whole process streamlined and painless.
I have found them to be highly courteous, diligent and very focussed on our needs - it's great to know that someone else is there to help you through the recruitment and selection process - that allows me to concentrate on other aspects of the business.
Adam Spencer - Finance Officer – (Local Authority)
We were looking for a skilled and experienced general manager but had very little luck finding the right person. We had an in depth meeting with halo and explained what we ere looking for and what we didn't want - within a matter of two weeks halo had identified 5 candidates for interview and I can honestly say that any one of them could have done the job, such was the calibre of these people. The appointment we made on the back of those interviews has proven to be the best decision we have ever made and our business is back on course again.
Richard Anderson - Managing Director - (Training & Education)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your hard work and commitment over the last 6 weeks. It has been refreshing to work alongside someone so dedicated and focussed on delivering results. We have noticed dramatic changes amongst the work force and Amanda has settled in really well, in fact it's like she's always been here!
Thanks once again Lindsay, it really has been a pleasure. All the best for the future and don't be a stranger!
Scott - Managing Director (Computer Systems)
After approaching Lindsay in August she quickly helped us to ascertain how her expertise could be exploited to our advantage. She was professional, knowledgeable and from the offset instilled us with confidence in not only her abilities but our own.
Lindsay introduced to us new ways of thinking, her attitude was such that nothing was a problem - just a situation that could be managed differently. Staff were responsive to her working style and adopted her enthusiasm and motivation.
Lindsay's role was varied and she often leant herself to things which were not set in our original objectives - sometimes even out of her normal working hours; but by doing so she helped to create a better understanding of all HR related issues within the business and without this commitment to us I strongly believe that we would not be moving forward as rapidly as we are today. The SMT are continuing to implement changes and feel more in control which has had a knock on effect throughout - So much so that whilst working with us we enjoyed our most profitable month to date!
Lindsay's advice and guidance was extremely practical I would have no problem recommending her services to any SME in need of expert HR advice.
Many thanks
Ian - Managing Director – (Retail Supply)
