Zest didn’t just send my CV around—they actively advocated for me. They highlighted my transferable skills, prepped me for interviews, and made sure I was confident every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for better support.

Zest connected me with opportunities that weren’t advertised anywhere else. Their network in the legal field is incredible, and their honest advice helped me prepare for every step. I’ve landed a role that feels like a real step forward in my career.

After years in the same role, I wanted something more dynamic. Zest didn’t just find me a job—they found me the job. Their guidance, interview prep, and honest feedback made all the difference. 

 The Zest team made me feel like more than just a CV. They really listened to what I wanted and gave excellent advice at every stage. Thanks to them, I’ve landed a role at a boutique firm that values both my legal expertise and my ambition.

I’ve worked with other recruiters before, but Zest stood out. They took the time to understand my niche expertise and career aspirations. Their insight into the legal market is second to none, and they found me a position in a top-tier firm that I wouldn’t have found on my own. 

Zest reached out to me via LinkedIn about a marketing role within the legal sector, which I wouldn’t have spotted without her help. The communication and guidance was excellent, as they consistently updated me on developments throughout the recruitment process. They even checked in with me after being recruited to check how I was getting on which was a very lovely and personal touch. I’d recommend zest to anyone who is looking to take the next step in their career. 

Zest was professional, responsive, and clearly well connected within the legal sector. Within two weeks of our first conversation, I had interviews lined up and was eventually placed in a role that challenges and excites me daily. 

Holly secured me a move from Senior Associate to Partner, and I have been very impressed with their work. Holly is hugely personable and charming, which makes her a joy to talk to. In addition, Holly is responsive without being overly pushy. I recommend zest most highly as a positive force in the world of recruitment. My thanks to Holly for all her support during this pivotal move for me.

I am delighted to recommend zest for anyone seeking extra support in finding a job. From our first conversation, Holly was warm, approachable and genuinely committed to understanding my goals. What set Holly apart was her consistent communication. She kept me updated after every submission, answered my questions promptly, tailoring her advice to the application in hand. I wholeheartedly would recommend Holly for anyone looking for a smooth transition into a new role. 

I am regularly contacted by legal recruitment consultants working for the “usual suspects” who promise the world but never hear from them again; there is nothing worse in my opinion. I would just like to make you aware of the determination and hard work that zest put in, not only to ensure I was successful for the role but for the regular contact and follow up correspondence they provided, they went over and above and dealing with them was an absolute pleasure.
