Outstanding Support and Professionalism – Kristy Robinson

I had the pleasure of working with Kristy Robinson from Synaco recently, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her dedication and support. From the very beginning, Kristy was proactive, professional, and genuinely invested in helping me explore a great opportunity with InfraBuild.

Even though I ultimately chose to stay with my current employer—who made a compelling offer to retain me—Kristy handled everything with grace and understanding. She kept me informed throughout the process, provided honest advice, and treated me with respect and encouragement at every step.

Kristy’s commitment to helping people reach their potential really stands out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for employment support or career guidance. She’s a standout in her field, and I’m truly grateful for her efforts.

Thanks again, Kristy!

Response from the owner:Thank you for the review and kind words!

From the very beginning, Josh and Louie took the time to understand my career aspirations and provided invaluable advice on how to present myself effectively.

Haitham Talab (Hase)

I would like deeply thank Jade Clayton-Cuch for her hard work into getting me into a role with Samaras Group which I am enjoying very much. Jade made it all happen within the space of 24 hours ( and this is no joke). Jade called me back on Thursday afternoon around 3pm with the job description and the type of candidate that they were looking for, she was very informative and friendly to chat with. With me providing answers to the questions that Jade asked me as well as my CV she was able to determine that i was correct fit for the role. From their, Jade worked quickly and efficiently, keeping me informed at every step to make sure that we had all the necessary paperwork filled out and completed, as well as the Interview with Samaras, The Drug and Alcohol, all paperwork finalised and the induction All done and completed. All this was completed by Friday afternoon around the same time. Jade you are a Champion. Thank you so much to you and Synaco Global Recruitment for such an easy and efficient employment process. Which with other companies would have taken any where from a week ( which is highly unlikely ) to 2 weeks . But most of all for this opportunity.

Response from the owner:Hase, we are incredibly pleased that the help of our valued team member Jade enabled you to find a perfect position at Samaras Group. Jade is a tremendous asset to our team and we're grateful she was able to assist you in finding the perfect fit. We thank you for your trust and confidence in us; it is greatly appreciated.
