We were delighted with the successful candidate and valued the reassurance provided by the Nurole platform that all the candidates we considered were actively interested in the advertised role. From the perspective of a public sector institution, the platform provided the transparency of an open search process, at a price that we could justify for a non-remunerated role. Communication was excellent throughout, and the technology of the platform worked very well: it was intuitive and reliable.

I had made a couple of applications that didn’t work, and then the one that did, and I’ve found the system works very well. The process of offering opportunities that you can look at and discard if they don’t suit you, or put in an application for if they do, it all works very smoothly.
