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.

Adam and his team are very friendly and always answer my calls anytime. I think they are one of the best recruitment agencies I have dealt with in Australia. They are ready to listen to any issue, always assist, find solutions as soon as possible and protect their workers. However management should consider increasing the wages of the labourers as it is very poor at the moment and does not meet with the current high costs of living in Australia.Thank you

I highly recommend Synaco Global Recruitment!! I was struggling with being a full-time, single father looking work. I had tried often for months on end by myself and with other recruitment agencies with absolutely nothing to show for it as the hours I could work were restricted. I then signed up with synaco and was placed under Zevanea as my recruitment consultant and jeeze was everything a breeze from there! She was very thorough in understanding my position and was obvious from the start she was here to help me. Zevanea was very professional, punctual and always kept communication so I never felt left in the dark. It was only a short time later that she discussed with me options on workplaces and have since been working as a Delivery Truck Driver who are willing to work around my situation as this company also highly regard Zevanea and are happy for me to work around my needs . THANKS HEAPS ZEVANEA AND ALL THE SYNACO TEAM!

I've been around in my working life, but nowhere I have ever been will compare to working here. I've never worked with a team so passionate about helping others or a team who just gets along with each other like we all do. Synaco has a whole lot of love to give, not just to each other, but to our candidates and clients as well. I'm proud to be a part of this awesome team <3 !

A day in the office at Synaco Global is always a positive experience ...collaborating with a positive driven team who support each other creates a truly "funky" office culture that makes coming to work a pleasure. Synaco Global Recruitment promote the kind of culture that inspires everyone to do their best.
