The Freshwater Group approached me about an executive role. The employer was an international group in the process of establishing Australian operations, which made for a complex search process. David and his team steered me through everything expertly. Importantly, they empowered me by providing all the information I needed about the company and the role.

Highly recommended. Excellent processes and engagement with David at Freshwater Group. David is professional, transparent and has a good eye on recruiting quality talent in a complex energy industry. Thank you.

David is the ultimate executive recruitment professional. He approached me about a role he had and although my background is in financial markets and I never would have considered applying for such a role, he identified that my network, experience and skills would be well suited to the role. Throughout the process his insight into the energy sector, guidance, support and transparency were invaluable and like nothing I have experienced before when going through a recruitment process. Although selection for the position has been deferred indefinitely, David has still kept in touch with me. I would highly recommend engaging with David and his team.

David provided outstanding service from the outset. He was professional, prompt, reliable, friendly, respectful...the list goes on. I thank him for his assistance in placing me in my new role, and would strongly encourage others to utilise his services.

Freshwater Group is highly professional and I had a nice experience with them. They follow systematic skills evaluation techniques and provide personalized feedback throughout the process. It was good working with Anna and she's very helpful and supportive in nature.

My experience with Freshwater Group has been great. Anna Carolina Santos was really helpful in getting me through the recruitment process and was always responsive and prudent in her replies every time I had a question. In the end, it was really hard for me to turn down the offer especially after having such a great relation with Anna. I highly recommend Freshwater Group.

David's clear communication, knowledge of the industry and ability to understand my career progression made the recruitment process one of the best I've had. At no stage did I feel I was being sold to or pushed for a role that didn't fit my skillset. I was well prepared for each interview stage with my potential employer and genuinely felt that David was pushing for a win-win outcome. Thank you to David and the Freshwater Group.

David went above and beyond to ensure that he could help me at each stage of the process. Would not hesitate to go through the recruitment process with Freshwater Group again, knowing that they genuinely care about matching the right applicants to the right roles.

I have dealt with many recruiters in my time. Freshwater is by far the best experience I have ever had. Always prompt with any questions I had and extremely professional. You are not treated like a number like many other recruiters. I would recommend Freshwater to any business in the energy sector.

The process Freshwater Group provided prior to shortlisting was informative. Meeting with David Young was a good opportunity to learn more about myself and my skills. The information provided for the interview appointment was concise. Overall, the process was professional.

In relation to future recruitment needs, I wanted to highlight how impressed I am with your process and industry focus and would be keen to use you in the future as needs arise.

I have been in the workforce professionally since 2007 and have dealt with countless recruiting agencies and will wholeheartedly say David and Freshwater are head and shoulders above the rest. Very professional and thorough, right from his initial approach. Knows what he is talking about, doesn't up sell. Although I was ultimately unsuccessful, he had flagged well before that it could have been an issue. Very insightful, highly recommended.

David is a great operator in the recruitment field. His level of professionalism, communication and attention to detail were second to none when compared to my other recruitment experiences.

I dealt with David Young at Freshwater Group and was reassured and impressed with the professionalism, clarity in communication, and ease to deal with. Recommended for sure.

A highly professional recruitment firm that provided strong attention to detail and communication. I was well prepared for my interviews.

David was great, very organised, very communicative, and he really understood the role he was talking about, which I appreciated immensely.

Freshwater Group is a recruitment company that treats candidates with a lot of respect. Their analyses of the profiles are relevant and the feedbacks they provide are very personalized. I highly recommend their services in the sector of energy recruitment.

You interviewed me for the Civil Engineer role. Throughout our communication, everything was clear to me. I am sure you have chosen the right candidate, based on your level of expertise and skills. Thank you for your time.

My experience with David was exceptional. The use of Skype for interviews, profile testing and timely feedback was very efficient. I'd like to thank David for his assistance in the whole process.

David and Morgan from the Freshwater Group recruited me for my current position at Redback Technologies. I found them both very professional and friendly to deal with, and it was great doing an interview over Skype as we were in different cities. David helped me through the process, including after I had started in the new position. I'd highly recommend Freshwater, David and Morgan.

Excellent and very professional recruitment agent with a pleasant team of people.

I found the team at Freshwater Group to be very professional in all aspects pertinent to proactive recruitment. They have excellent insights across emerging industries and are building relevant contacts to match their target markets. At the same time, their humble nature has earned my respect as they draw a clear line about what they don't know and are happy to call that out rather than speculate with incorrect or false information. I would consider Freshwater Group for an effective, nimble and ethical search firm.

I found Freshwater Group to be very professional and helpful. The team were well versed in the client's activities and provided an insightful application process. A very positive experience.

Very thorough and friendly staff, good communication with the client and excellent feedback. A positive experience all round.

Very friendly and helpful team, excellent support and communications even after job placement. It was a very positive experience for me.

I'd like to sincerely thank you for considering me for the Electrical Engineer role. I'm sorry to hear that the decision did not go my way, but appreciate that the decision was a difficult one. I appreciate the care and thoroughness shown to me during the process. I'm impressed with your company, the way it conducts business, and it was a pleasure talking to you. Please kindly pass my gratitude to the rest of the team.

I had the opportunity to work with David and his team earlier in the year and found their professionalism and attention to detail to be well above par in terms of recruitment services in Australia. At all times during the recruitment process I was well informed of the status of my application via strong communication from the team. I wouldn't hesitate engaging with Freshwater Group again, should the opportunity arise.

I had a positive experience working with Freshwater Group after applying for a role through LinkedIn. Morgan was particularly diligent and professional. I felt she was a genuine agent for Freshwater and for the company she was recruiting for. She kept communication lines open and seemed very honest about the situation with active assurance through the process. Meeting David was a pleasure. He was very thorough in giving background information on his client and retrieving information for his client to get the best picture. Though initially a little intimidating, the personality assessment taken before the interview is a very enlightening and valuable tool for gaining genuine applicants. Though I was not successful in the role, I believe Morgan and David acted professionally and with empathy. I would recommend this team for gaining quality work.

First and foremost you guys are truly professional and set very much apart from my experience with other recruiters. Superb!

As GM of a start up organization, I found David Young’s approach fresh and very thoughtful. His attention to service and details provided us with excellent candidates. He’s been a partner in hiring and also in the business.

David has redefined executive search in my eyes. Prior to utilising services from the Freshwater Group, in previous companies, the hiring of recruitment consultants rendered high fees and low quality deliverables. David, in contrast, takes his job personally, providing significant care in each engagement and delivering to a standard few hold themselves accountable to.
