I did my first shift in May, 2008. I started, not very sure of what to expect. It was my first experience as an agency worker and I have, prior to this time, heard a lot of stories about how agency staff were exploited and unceremoniously discarded. I had thought it was going to be a short stint until I would get a more permanent job. But here I am, almost a year after, still working for ELITE and enjoying every moment of it, and even hoping to be here many more years ahead. ELITE ensures that you are properly trained, retrained and equipped in your area of responsibility for optimum performance, and in turn reward integrity and high sense of responsibility. Wages and entitlements including holiday pay are paid promptly and has never been delayed for a day since I joined ELITE. ELITE will work around your time, knowing you also may have commitments, and will put you first once you have proved your reliability. Above all ELITE will stand by you and support you, when issues arise in your place of work regarding your professionalism and will be ready to vouch for your integrity. ELITE has shown and proved itself to be a caring and considerate employer!
We have been Social Workers with Elite Care since 2008 and have never been without good quality placements that meet our needs and expertise. We have been more than happy with the support that Elite gives us and the fact that we are always paid on time (something which other agencies - so we have heard - can be a problem). We are not registered with other Social Work Agencies and never have seen the need to given the excellent service that Elite gives to us. We would recommend Elite as a Social Work Agency to anyone considering entering into agency work.
Elite Care provides permanent weekend and night cover at one of our projects, and permanent night cover at another. They also provide to all of our centres with ad-hoc cover. Elite Care provides an effective service; they have always tried to provide suitably qualified staff. Whenever we have had any issues with their staff they have dealt with it promptly and efficiently. I have no hesitation in recommending their service to you.
I really do appreciate all your support and help over the years, your support has been amazing. Thank you for everything.
I found Elite very quick to offer the right person for the job. Fabian was a delight. In fact, we wanted for him to stay with us. Fabian was quick to learn the job, quick to fit in with the team and very good with his paperwork. He will be missed. If we need any further agency we will be contacting Charlotte at Elite. Many Thanks.
Elite have always provided us with an attentive and professional service. Due to the specialist nature of our care service Elite met with us to discuss our recruitment needs and provided us with high caliber staff which we met and vetted ourselves prior to them commencing work with us. Their response times are impeccable and I would strongly recommend them to other care providers.
I joined Elite in 2008 and have never regretted it or even considered another agency. My consultant Charlotte is approachable, efficient and actually seems to understand the job I do and that is a big plus. I would recommend anyone and guarantee that you will not be disappointed.
Dear Charlotte , I would like to thank you and Elite Care Recruitment for their professional support from the start of my application to the end process. Outstanding communication and interaction which makes candidates feel valued and supported. I would highly recommend your services for future candidates. Thanks and best wishes BB
We contacted Elite Care over a year ago (May 2010) to supply us with a number of staff on a temp to perm basis. Elite Care responded very quickly and professionally by arranging a meeting to discuss our needs due to the complexity of our support services. Elite Care ensured that all candidates put forward for the role with us undertook the essential training required to work in this sector. We found the staff to be friendly and hard working. We would recommend Elite Care Recruitment, and look forward to continuing working with them.
I went to Elite Care Recruitment to enquire about work and three weeks later I am looking forward to starting my new full time position as RCW in Bedfordshire. The service I received from Elite Care Recruitment was excellent. Alison provided me with great advice and was honest and professional. I felt very confident when I went in for my interview and was delighted get the job. I would highly recommend Elite Care Recruitment to anyone looking for a top quality service.
I would like to thank Alison & the team at Elite Care Recruitment for their very professional help, and their hard work in regards to my career, in finding me a Permanent post. The standard and quality of their time & advice that they have given me in the last few weeks was fantastic & brilliant! I was successful at my new post, and I am very excited to start my new role. Thanks again Elite Care!
Charlotte, thank you so much for the work you have found me over the past 5 months and for you and Amanda's professionalism and good humour it is much appreciated. All the best. SC Support Worker
Alison and the team are very proficient in their approach; they quickly identified our specific requirements, are able to deal with the whole recruitment process, which includes face to face pre-screened checks for all temps, providing profiles, photographs and CRB references, all temps come with experience and training for the sector we specialise in. I would highly recommend Elite Care Recruitment to other professional Health and Social Care sectors as the service we have received is exceptional!
After receiving a fairly mediocre service from another carer staffing agency, I decided to try some alternatives to improve the flexibility of agency cover. Elite showed a wholly different approach to other agencies we worked with - staff at least as good as our own, well trained. I found them to be well organised and attentive, service focussed with staff at least as good as our own. I was delighted with the service and would recommend them on that basis. Valerie the MD is a great lady to work with - very grounded, supportive, honest. Great supplier.
Hello Charlotte Hope you are well :) I'm so pleased and looking forward to my new job. I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to find this new job , and once again for supporting me during the recruitment process.
The girls in the office are always approachable and appear interested in all you say. I am glad I came back to them. I have not been out of work since I came back to them.
Elite have been very consistent and thorough in their search to find a Registered Manager for us. We have received regular phone calls regarding potential candidates, reliable cv’s have been sent with any further information being obtained and reported back to us. Alison has been an absolute godsend, is very approachable and has provided an excellent, professional service. I’m almost sorry that they were able to find a successful candidate with us as I’ll miss the calls!! Am happy to highly recommend Elite and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Please accept my resignation as a support worker in your organisation to enable me focus on my education. I feel very fortunate to have been associated with Elite Care for the last four months. During this period my experiences and training have been invaluable, and I leave with pleasant memories.
My experience with Elite Care, namely Charlotte, was a positive first class experience. From initial submission of my CV throughout the interview process and during the transition into a new post Elite Care were supportive and reassuring, assisting with all aspects of seeking new employment and contactable at all times. I would recommend this service to any professional to ensure a smooth transition in changing employers. Thank you for your assistance. LH Registered Manager
It was very difficult with me for the past three weeks for me to come to this decision but I just have to make it. I have been shuttling between Northampton and London that made it very difficult for me to continue working with Elite. It was very difficult for me to be available these times therefore I have to end my service with you. I learned a lot in your organization and I appreciate that very much. There is time to come and time to go. My time to go has come. With heavy heart, I am tendering my resignation to the wonderful Elite Care Recruitment as of today. I thank you very much for the advices that I received from you. Thank you Val, thank you Charlotte and thank you Amanda. Regards SB, Support Worker
Dear Charlotte I'm really grateful for providing me with this great opportunity. I have always conducted my self professionally. In my new job, I will continue to maintain the good image of Elite Care. Thank you ever so much.
