Oxford Media Business School congratulates
The Career Boutique


At the beginning of May The Career Boutique was delighted to be able to use its expertise, knowledge and valued relationships with Oxfordshire’s leading businesses, to support Oxford Media Business School (OMBS) in securing work experience placements for 10 of their graduates.

The week long work experience programme was an all round success and The Career Boutique is thrilled to share the experiences of some of the graduates and businesses that took part. 

Candidate - Account Manager

I just wanted to say a big Thank You for your help in securing my new position. When I first registered with The Career Boutique, it was for a Contracts Manager role and I had not even looked at Account Management. You have been an absolute pleasure to work with and a far cry from the agencies that I am used to. You provide a much more personal service than most.

Client - Oxfordshire based Engineering company

Katherine has a fresh and interesting approach to recruitment. She goes “the extra mile” to find the ideal candidate whose skills and personal qualities are just right for your business. She is flexible, accommodating and always professional. Dealing with the Career Boutique makes recruiting a pleasure.

Candidate - Graduate Mechanical Engineer

I was very pleased to work with The Career Boutique. Katherine guided me through the whole recruiting process and provided me with help and support. Negotiating with my future employer was very fast and efficient. I have no hesitation in recommending your services to others. Thanks again.

Candidate - Leigh Gould

Katherine has always gone out of her way to assist in securing the right position for me, which to date has been profitable for both myself and the employer. No matter the time of day, she has always made herself available and ensured information is up to date, which proved critical in fulfilling her client’s urgent post.

Client - IT Company

I thoroughly enjoyed the employment law session you co-hosted at Malmaison. The choice of breakfast refreshments were an absolute hit and my colleague and I found the session thought provoking, informative and entertaining. Thank you.

Candidate - Project Manager

Katherine, you are running a very professional service and one you should be very proud of, I have dealt with many agencies in the past and none of them would even come close to your standard of professionalism, courtesy and personalisation, you are great at what you do so keep doing it!

Candidate - HR Manager

As agencies and service go, you are truly a breath of fresh air. I was so impressed by your thorough dedication and how professional and supportive your service is - Wonderful! I appreciate how very busy your schedule may be as well as the effort that goes into conducting such interviews, screening for potential applicants, and just wanted to extend a word of appreciation to that fact.

Client - OMBS

I cannot thank The Career Boutique enough for finding my students the most amazing work placements – the students have now come back to college full of all the experiences they have gained. It has been a total pleasure working with Katherine and this is certainly an agency to watch out for as their professionalism and commitment is outstanding.

Candidate - Team Manager

The professionalism and personal service from The Career Boutique was excellent, and indeed very refreshing compared to other agencies I have had contact with in the past. It was clear that Katherine was acting in the interests of both the recruiting company and myself, not just one or the other.

Client - Marketing

Thank you for organising another great seminar this morning.

Candidate - Area Manager

From start to finish I found The Career Boutique to be excellent. Katherine communicated well throughout and gave me good advice and support, I found a great job immediately through them. The follow up is also brilliant, with Katherine checking everything was ok. It was a pleasure to deal with The Career Boutique, I would highly recommend them.

Client - Oxfordshire Digital Creative Agency

The work experience student that The Career Boutique sourced was simply outstanding! In short – she was professional, enthusiastic, proactive, skilled and useful and puts many seasoned workers to shame. Bring ‘em on!

Candidate - Senior Buyer

Thanks so much once again. I am really pleased and I am most grateful to you and Kat for getting me this position. They seem like a great bunch of people to work with and I think this is perfect for me as it is a very ethical business in a very tough and often unethical industry. So I am thrilled and really looking forward to starting on Monday.

Client - Leading Software Company

Thanks for all your help Katherine – you really listened to what I and the company needed!

Candidate - Concierge, Oxfordshire

Thank you Katherine. All extremely helpful and few agencies would go to the efforts you have.

Candidate - Project Manager

Thanks very much for your help and support. I will certainly be recommending you to my friends should they require recruitment services in the future, you’re a breath of fresh air compared to the other agencies I have dealt with.

Candidate - Sales Executive

A very professional organisation, expert and a delight to work with!! Katherine communicated well throughout and I appreciated the support and dedication that was shown to me. It has been a pleasure to work with the Career Boutique and I would most certainly recommend you to a friend. Thank you!

Client - Oxfordshire Golf Club from The Oxfordshire Golf Club , General Manager

The Career Boutique grasped immediately what we were trying to achieve and how the right candidates would fit into our own culture. Katherine Dales delivered a number of very high quality individuals to us for interview. It is an association that we would like to continue with.
