I had the pleasure of working with Shane and being successfully placed into my ideal role through his hard work and recruitment expertise. He was always very easy to reach and provided updates on my various applications as soon as they became available. His excellent knowledge of the compliance and financial industry meant that we could talk through the available options and determine which one was best for me at the time. I’m still very happy in my current role and would highly recommend Shane to anyone considering a career move.

I could not recommend Shane enough for anyone looking to take their first steps into their chosen careers. Shane is immensely attentive and clearly cares about helping his clients secure excellent positions. I am very grateful for all the work Shane has done for me in securing my first graduate job and look forward to remaining in contact with him as my career develops.

When Shane approached me to provide him with a note of recommendation, I wanted to make sure that I will not only highlight his deep knowledge of the financial industry and wide network of well-qualified individuals, but also his unique method to identifying people for specific jobs and his individual approach to each candidate. He possesses a deep knowledge of the financial sector and works with a wide network of professionals across a range of job disciplines. I have been consistently impressed with Shane’s attitude since the first day he contacted me. He is not only a recruiter, but also a person who is very engaging, dependable and high in integrity. He understands the complexity of a journey to find a right position by recognising each individual circumstances and knowing that a good match should be a “win-win” proposition for both, employer and employee and on both, professional and personal level. His professional approach is only matched by his ingenuity. I was impressed with Shane’s level of professionalism and his patience in finding the correct match between the candidate and the employer. He sees the bigger picture and for this reason, I know that I can always depend on him to work in the best interest of both, the company as well as the professional seeking new opportunity. I believe this quality is truly rare in the world of professional recruitment and is extremely beneficial in the long-run for all his clients.

I was fortunate to have dealings with Shane, who is a very professional and trustworthy person. He is very dedicated to his job and walks the extra mile to ensure that both parties (employer and employee) are satisfied with their contract. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Shane is the best recruiter I have worked with and is one of the best recruiters Dublin has seen. He strikes the perfect balance between an employer and a candidate. Shane really knows what he is doing and has shown that a recruiter can also think in the best interests of a candidate. Shane took a genuine interest in my profile and patiently understood my skills and aspirations to assess the best roles for me, this is what I liked best about him. It has been such a pleasure associating with him. When I become an employer Shane will definitely be the one, I’d rely on to hire.

Shane Hickey was asked to recruit a Non-Executive Director for an internationally focussed financial services company in Ireland. I found him to be very thorough and professional throughout the process. I would be delighted to work with Shane again.
