Sian Bowe
Having just graduated from Uni in June of this year, I was struggling (and failing) with a lot of job applications. This was until I applied through Evolve and was able to work with Lauren Ward. She was able to find me an incredible job and helped me so much through the process. Her and her colleagues were consistently sending me opportunities, confirmations and updates and they were all so polite and pleasant to communicate with. I couldn't recommend Evolve enough, especially for graduates who will get to work with Lauren.
Jessica Tape
Lauren Ward is a shining light in recruitment! When I decided the job wasn't going to fit in with my 'family' committments, she negotiated for me and came back with an offer that suited me. Excellent informative support prior to interview, with tips and encouragement, followed up all my queries. Friendly and approachable with excellent personal skills. I'd highly recommend Evolve.

Lauren Ward was brilliant in getting me into my role. Offered me so much support and guidance, was always on the end of the telephone if I needed anything. Definitely don’t see this type of support in many recruitment agencies. Would 100% recommend evolve to anyone!

Couldn’t thank her enough!

Rustham Fidha
Evolve and Lauren Ward have helped me to take my first step in career and find a high value graduate job in medical sales. Lauren was a constant source of support throughout my application process and was always free to talk about anything. Lauren was obviously extremely competent and understood the recruitment process from top to bottom. Whilst you tend to hear some of the same stuff from most recruiters, Lauren provided truly valuable insights that ultimately got me the job. I can not express enough how important it is to have someone on your side who is as warm and personable, especially during the stressful and long process of recruitment applications. I genuinely can not sing high praises of both Evolve and Lauren.

Jasmine Afaily-Zadeh
Lauren is an expert in recruitment in the Pharmaceutical industry. I worked with her over the course of several weeks, when she helped successfully recruit me for an amazing job opportunity. She differs from other recruiters in her approach, she is dedicated in providing her support and honest feedback to candidates and draws on her own experiences to tailor the recruitment process to each individual and company. Lauren's excellent communication skills meant I was well prepared, well equipped and generally relaxed for the interview process and also kept up to date at each following stage. She has continued to offer me support throughout my notice period in my current position and the induction process in my new role, which makes her stand out from other recruiters I have worked with previously. She is a pleasure to work with and I have recommended her to a number of colleagues and family members

Oscar Knights
I started searching for Medical sales jobs in March, came across Evolve and Lauren. She was so helpful from the start, gave me so much confidence by pushing me into interviews that were of great interest to me. I had a few first stage interviews with companies for which Lauren completely prepped me for and I got to the second stage each time. Unfortunately due to Covid-19, these were put on hold. However, a vacant job came about within a week in RB - a very well known company that does dettol and gaviscon...Lauren put me forward for this, I reached the first interview and with all of Lauren’s help and support managed to get to the second stage which was very intense which Lauren again overprepped me in the best way possible. 2 days later, I had a phone call that I’d got the job, my DREAM job with a great salary and all the benefits. This was all down to Lauren, the amount of confidence, help, guidance and support she gave me is unforgettable. I will always remember Lauren and how she got me my first dream job. Thanks Lauren ?
Shikha Bhardwaj
Evolve is amazing for helping you get the next step in your career. I had Lauren as my recruiter help me secure my dream job in medical devices sales.

The organisation and skill I experienced from Evolve recruitment was exceptional. And thanks again Lauren!
Dominique Cheng
