“Working with round8 and with Jim in particular has been an extremely pleasurable and successful relationship over the past 4 years. Jim impressed me from the first moment he introduced himself to me over the phone (not easy and very rare for me!). Since then Jim has been an integral part of our successful recruitment program at both Virgin Radio and now at Microsoft Advertising. Above all he's just a great bloke. November 1, 2008

“Jim is the best there is. He has a deft way of getting under the skin of the role and who you are looking for, while caring as much about the values of the people he finds for you as he does about the achievement of finding them. Jim has a high moral code with no bullshit and from that perspective saves you hours and hours of running around. Brilliant company. Brilliant service. Brilliant bloke! Use them or get half the job done.
