The service given by the consultants at Penguin is unmatched. Within a week i had several calls from Amir Gharaati, guiding me through the recruitment process, interview stages and finally my hiring for my applied job. He really felt invested to get me through the door into my first acoustics job and i couldn't thank both him and Penguin Recruitment more for their help. Fantastic service!
