Welcome to Yvette Harrison Recruitment

During more than two decades as a recruitment consultant I have worked with thousands of companies and candidates throughout NZ. Individual scenarios differ but they all have a common need that informs every aspect of my service – and that is to receive professional, personalised service that makes them feel valued.

I will deliver this – and more – when working with you. As one of New Zealand’s leading technical recruitment specialists, I work on a low-volume high value model. This means you will only be dealing with me at every stage of the process, gaining the maximum benefit from my years of experience and extensive industry networks.

What is everyone else saying?

Here are some comments from happy customers and candidates.

Yvette was fantastic at providing a thorough and accurate assessment of potential candidates.

Client
Dave

It is indeed my pleasure to thank Yvette Harrison for her contribution. Thanks to Yvette, my Job hunt hasn’t gone through much hassle. Yvette is adept in this technical recruitment arena, exhibiting professionalism, reliable communication and charisma.

I recall my experience with her when she identified my expectations and skill sets to match the right employer. Beyond the recruitment process, she even took personal care in my career path and gave consultation on what would suit me the best, especially as an immigrant in this soil.

Thanking once again for her contribution, I would highly recommend Yvette for candidates seeking opportunities in the operations and continuous improvement field.

Candidate
Selva

Yvette's ability to source offshore Engineering/Technical candidates outperforms most of the recruiters we work with in that space.

It is an absolute pleasure to talk about Yvette H. and her recruitment services. I have the opportunity to meet Yvette approximately two years ago in a recruitment process. It was a remarkable moment in my personal life and career when I was looking for a change. She gave me such good advice and recommendations to be more assertive in my search and helped me to find the ideal job. She`s highly dedicated, insightful, analytical, technical, and empathetic. She goes beyond the classical `Recruiter` role, being completely honest and transparent through the process. I highly recommend Yvette to my friends looking for a better opportunity in their careers.

Yvette has been very helpful in every step of the way - from preliminary screening to offering the job. She provides insight as to the nature of the job and working environment, interviewers' background, tips for interview, and more. Friendly yet professional. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Thank you very much for your help in recruiting for the Food Technologist role. From my end you have made the process smooth, uncomplicated and found us good candidates. We look forward to [candidate] starting with us in a couple of weeks.

Yvette has been fantastic. She has clearly assessed my experience and skill set to judge if further involvement in the interview process is appropriate and at the same time has supplied me with all I need to present myself and my skill set clearly to the client.
