My experience with Werkie was truly a positive one. The team was professional, supportive, and kept me informed throughout the recruitment process. They made the entire experience feel smooth and reassuring, and I genuinely felt like they cared about helping me find the right opportunity. Thanks to their assistance, I’ve secured a new role that I’m excited to begin in a few weeks. I’m very grateful for their guidance and support throughout this journey and would definitely recommend Werkie to other job seekers.

After months of doing my own job applications and not getting any response. Werkie came to my rescue and within a few weeks I landed an amazing job opportunity! But not just one, SEVERAL! I have noticed that a lot of employers trust Werkie to help look for the ideal candidate. Werkie assesses your strengths thoroughly and presents your CV and all your work experiences to potential future employers, all on your behalf. They make the interview process very easy for the candidate and I personally enjoyed working with Werkie. They are an amazing recruitment company and if I were to give advice to anyone looking for their first or next job, I’d greatly advise you to go to Werkie!

<div>I app**** for a sales vacancy with them, they clearly state no experience needed although I have more then 7years sales experience and customer service, but that is not my problem, my issue is they send me a mail stating I need to fill in a form and a second assessment.I then received a call from Werkie in Bellville Cape Town, saying thank you for your application we are pleased with your first assessment and cv and please just fill in the form and assessment and send back today, me thank you will do so.A minute after I dropped the call received another email stating you were unsuccessful.Now this is very unprofessional for a company doing this and contradicting themselves, basically stating you did good and then sorry you failed, spoke Duane and allcould say is I understand where you come from and sorry for the inconveniences people rather stay away from Werkie</div>

Bad service amd slow responses. I apl**** via their web and did all relevant documents, aenr my cv etc. The position I app**** for, I was told was filles by a more suitable candidate, which I highly doubt as I have 20+ years experience and knowledge. Then January this year I see the same position advertised again. Now, my whole career history is on my cv. Then I receive a phone call asking me what did I do years 2010 to 2013. I responded "surelt all info is on my cv" the lady said well its not on their system. I responded well then someone at your offices did not do their work. Responses are slow, messages via whatsapp get read but no response. Slow to negotiate an interview also. Only response I ever get is "we are waiting for the company" well if it was so urgent as position stated then I dont know. Absolutely terrible service and very unprofessional!

I had an awesome journey with the incredible people at Werkie.co.za. Each and every person that I interacted with throughout each stage of the process was super friendly, professional, helpful, patient, kind and genuinely invested in my job search with me. A special thank you to Anika and Celesti for all the arrangements you handled and always keeping an open line of communication with me, answering all my questions and being so invested in helping me find a good fit. You guys do recruitment the right way! I would easily recommend their service to anyone looking for work. Warm regards, Nic
