“Disgusting company wouldn't advise working for them make you wait months to start a job and then take into account what someone else has said but not you, end up losing work they then don't provide you with anymore been treated really bad by Reed never again.”
“Lisa Nichols @ Rayners Park was amazing at communicating and putting together my availability for a job. Having been made redundant and a difficult time to find work, it was very much appreciated that Lisa managed to slot me into a programme of covid19 Test and Trace assistants. I look forward to more work that may come through Reed.”
“I signed up to Reed to help my job search. Not more than three hours later I had a phone call from Sky Broadband trying to sell me services, telling me that they had gotten my information passed on from Reed.com! Instantly went to delete my profile, this company cannot be trusted to protect your data.”
“I purchased a course on line just before Christmas. I di not receive my log-in details so I contacted Reed on January 13th and was told I would have them within 48 hours. They did not come. I requested them again... nothing so I phoned the course provider on the morning of January 18th and they who promised to send them by 3pm. Still nothing. Reed only respond (if they respond at all) with automated emails and the course provider has not contacted me at all and soI have no confidence in Reed or that the course will be well managed. They may be good at other aspects of recruitment but I would certainly avoid them for training courses.”
“I would like to take this opportunity in thanking Kristine Bokane-da-Silva at MIlton Keynes branch for her professionalism and friendliness during my search for a position. I can not fault the service I received from her. She kept me updated during the entire process and was tenacious and dedicated. She has been nothing but “Ace” and I highly recommend her.”

“We are a small agency who have used Reed for many years and found them professional and quality of CV good compared to others. However in dealing with them this week they have really let themselves down. We have some position we need to market, positions we are grateful to have in these times and yet our Passwords are down and we are unable to post jobs.
Very happy to discuss this matter with anyone other than our usual contact.”
“Fraud all reed does take your money forward you some companies and they rob you more.
Paid 70 pounds plus more to course gate thief's. Because I write review they not posting my certificate jokes. Soon be pandemic over and il be visiting your office”
“I recently spoke to two guys on the 02034573827 number. I was interested in the AAT 1 Course.They soon began trying to pressure sell there £600 Level 2 on me! Their add starts at £160 then goes up & up to £250. They also failed to tell me honestly about a extra £80 for a exam (only 1 attempt) Then it gets worse i call AAT themselves & find out it is not online! All exams have been suspended! I am disgusted they are working from home still trying to sell Online courses you can't complete COVID 19 & this course is free at my local college once it opens again!”
“I have had the best support from Donna, she has helped me find the best positions on two occasions. I honestly can’t say enough about how thankful and grateful I am. The service has been amazing! If you need help with a new job prospect then Donna is the lady you need to see!”
“Don't Go To REED! I had a very traumatic experience. Reed placed me in a vulnerable position and failed to communicate the specifications of a job I accepted. I only accepted on the basis that I would gain detailed information. I was placed in a specialist provision unit which deals with severe cases. I was abused, punched and kicked by pupils, a role I wasn't trained for. Reed apologized as they admitted their lack in sufficient information or protection over me as an employee. They did not protect me or care about my safety. DO NOT TRUST”
“I had the worst ever experience with Reed. Different consultants telling me different things. Telling me all things are set for me to start my new job on Monday after constant phone calls someone finally tells me I’m not starting on Monday. I had handed my notice in for my current job at the time because I was initially told everything is set for Monday to then be told I’m not starting. Then I receive a phone call on Monday morning asking if I can start the following morning after a few no shows. I agree to start and was told by the consultant that I will receive confirmation via email which I didn’t. After calling the Leeds office a number of times finally at about 5pm Someone answers to tell me I won’t be starting the next day. This was very unfair on me and I was left jobless due to there lack of communication amongst one another.”
“I purchased a course of their site withthe OHSC the oxford home leraning college, I purchased a diploma in in business management and administration level 4 at the time this was their highest business course.
They have since restructured the web siteand brought in. another business management course, and for some reason renamed mine a diploma in business adminnistration. This is on my certificate recieved today they will now not answer my questions.
Abit of advice beware of the OHSC and these courses that are sold on Reed as I dont think they are genuine. Tony Mason”
“I'm open minded about this company and Indeed as well as Monster. I mean, come on! who calls they're job site 'Monster ???
I've applied for several jobs in security on all these sites and never hear anything back. I got 35 yrs security experience and hold a licence as well as many certificates in my career as well as a resume and explanatory cv. I've not heard off no one. Total waste of my time and effort for nothing. If you really want to find a good job, then I strongly recommend you to write to the companies your interested in asking if they have any positions available or at least to keep uour resume, cv on file in case a position arises in the foreseeable future. Failing that, then visit your local job centre or go on they're own personal website. Forget these so called job sites I have mentioned above including Reed. Total waste of time.”
“Dear All
Excellent customer service. I am 100% happy with Reed. Very professional, prompt and very very helpful. Jeyda, based at the Victoria branch, went the extra mile to help me.”
“I receive email with Job up dates, once you reply it says if you need more info call so & so the name on the job description.
Every time you call to speak to that person, they always seem to be on the phone, they never return your calls.
I have sent numerous applications in but nothing, a little bit of a personal touch is required, i appreciate they have lots to do but I bet there 8 hr day is not full and they have time for other thing's.
Not going to bother any more as it waist's my time.”
