Candidate services
Our Commitment to Candidates
At Karen Collier Careers, our candidates are at the heart of everything we do. Delivering an exceptional service to our clients means understanding the candidates we represent, their skills, aspirations, and what truly will make them thrive.
Every candidate is unique. Each role comes with its own set of challenges and expectations, and every person brings a distinct blend of experience, personality, and ambition. That’s why we take the time to go beyond the CV, listening carefully, asking the right questions, and building relationships based on trust, transparency, and mutual respect.
How We Work with Candidates
- Prompt and Personal Responses
- All initial enquiries are handled swiftly and personally – no automated replies or unnecessary delays.
- A Smooth, Respectful Process
- Our registration process is simple, efficient, and respectful of your time and commitments.
Getting to Know the Real You
We take the time to understand your soft skills, communication style, and professional personality, the qualities that don’t always show up on paper but make a big difference in the right role.
Empowering You Every Step of the Way
Before we send your details to a client, we’ll talk through the opportunity in full. You'll always know where your details are going and why, and nothing is shared without your explicit consent. You stay in control throughout, with our guidance and support behind you at every step.
Feedback You Can Trust
We believe in open and honest feedback. While we rely on our clients to share this with us, we actively follow up to ensure you're not left in the dark, as we know how valuable feedback is for growth, and we treat every opportunity as a learning experience, just as we would want if we were in your shoes.
Candidate Care Matters
Our candidate care is as important to us as our client service. You’ll receive the same level of attention, communication, and commitment because we know that happy, well-supported candidates lead to successful and long-lasting placements.
Whether you’re actively job hunting or simply exploring what’s next, we’re here to support your journey with integrity, professionalism, and a personal touch.

This is the best recruitment agency I have ever come across. Karen and her team are unique in the sense that they really take the time to find out who you are and what you are looking for. Unlike other agencies who might push you to apply for jobs that aren’t for you, Karen really listened to what I wanted and was looking for. She found me a job opportunity that was perfect for me and supported me every step of the recruitment process. I was particularly impressed with the effort Karen made to meet me an hour before my interview, to calm my nerves and prep me as much as possible, and when I, fortunately, got the job, I was really touched with the beautiful bouquet of flowers I received on my first day of the job from Karen and the team. I would definitely recommend Karen Collier to all job searchers in the fashion industry, if you are looking for a personalized and friendly touch to what can often be a stressful recruitment process, get in touch with Karen, she’s the best!
