No longer content with my former job, I signed up with Dorothy Danahy and was called back instantly to come into their Paris offices and meet with one of their consultants. I was immediately made to feel at ease by their lovely and friendly team, and had a long discussion about what I was looking for, as well as their current roles available. In the several weeks that followed, I was called regularly and presented a number of different roles corresponding to my profile, and to my career goals. In my experience of bilingual recruitment companies in Paris, Dorothy Danahy was by far the most reactive, and offered me the widest range of different roles, all of them in highly reputed companies. The consultants also paid close attention to the criteria I was seeking in a position, as I was not seeking an entirely classic assistant role.

Within a few weeks, I was offered a CDI in a fantastic and dynamic Executive Search firm, where I fit in straightaway. Dorothy Danahy even contacted me by post to congratulate me on the role and checked up how things were going after the initial few days. Almost a year on, I am still happy in my role but would definitely recommend Dorothy Danahy to anyone looking for an interesting assistant role in Paris.

The Dorothy Danahy team helped me to find a new job.

I would particularly like to congratulate my Consultant, who was in charge of my file, for the quality of her work and for her attentiveness.

I am very much appreciated her ability to listen and her sense of judgment.

Through her professionalism and understanding of the role, she was able to meet the expectations of both myself and of the client company.

I'd like to thank the whole team for their kindness.

As soon as I entered the Dorothy Danahy offices, I knew I was in safe hands and that a suitable job would be found quickly for me. After completing language and computing tests, I then met with Dorothy, who perused my CV and we discussed my options. She put me forward for positions straight away and it seemed to me that the office had many clients and therefore a large network. This reassured me as I previously had been with another recruitment agency who didn't have many propositions for me.

After I left the office, it wasn't long before I got calls from the various recruitment consultants in the agency. They understood what I was looking for and I soon went on interviews. Two short weeks went by between my initial consultation with Dorothy and the signature of my employment contract - I think that speaks for itself!!

I really appreciated Dorothy Danahy's professional and pertinent approach, which is essential in matching candidate profiles with client requirements. They enabled me to find a bilingual Executive Assistant position in a large international group, which proved to be very exciting.

I was also very grateful for the warm welcome and service that I received.

A big thank you to the whole team for their efficiency and kindness!

Hélène C.candidate

I contacted Dorothy Danahy following a skills assessment that I had wanted to do mid-way through my career which made it clear that I would continue to blossom in assistant roles working for company managers. I was welcomed in an extremely professional manner by a consultant who had an excellent knowledge of Executive Assistant jobs. We spent a long time discussing my past as an assistant and my professional aspirations. In addition to the interview, I was also tested on my IT and language skills.

Already working at the time, I was considering new challenges working for company directors in different sectors, to supplement my professional experience and to discover new professional avenues.

Regularly contacted by Dorothy Danahy for updates on my situation, I one day voiced the fact that I was ready to move to a new position should an opportunity present itself. A few months later I was contacted for an interview with a company situated a few minutes from my house. Having now worked there for almost a year, I can confirm that this role suits me down to the ground and that my skills are put to very good use. I found it easy to settle in to my new team as the role was perfectly matched to my personality.

I think it is rare today to come across such expertise in PA recruitment, and I am delighted to be in contact with the Dorothy Danahy team as I am convinced that I am in safe hands before, during and after the recruitment process, receiving a consistently high-quality service.

As a recent graduate, I was looking for a bilingual assistant position with a company where I could grow over several years. The direct approach and pertinent offers and solutions offered by Dorothy Danahy contributed to the realisation of this objective. I now work as an assistant and really love what I do.

I tell all of my friends looking for the same sort of position to give the Dorothy Danahy consultants a call - a quality service is guaranteed. So don't hesitate to leave your application in their hands...

Faïza A.candidate

A bilingual assistant for American multinationals, I always gave Dorothy Danahy and her team of "Wonder Women" a call when I wanted to find a new challenge and take the next step in my career.

Candidates are extremely well chosen, the jobs perfectly selected to best suit our professional qualities but also our personalities, all of which allows our bosses to succeed in their work.

The team accompanies me in my career but also in my life, as they never fail to keep in touch or to make sure that I am happy in my job.

Thank you Dorothy Danahy who is the agency to choose and to which I am very proud to belong!

Dorothy Danahy is a recruitment agency with dedicated personnel who has the candidates' interests at heart. It was with their help that I landed a great job. I have never been disappointed by their welcome or their support. I would warmly recommend this professional team that is led by a lady who has always given the advice needed to move forward.

Winnie P.candidate

I am in regular contact with recruitment companies and Dorothy Danahy is the first non-temporary recruitment agency that I have dealt with. The prevailing impression is one of extreme professionalism and a company that enjoys a good reputation with employers. In fact, Dorothy Danahy is by far the recruitment agency that offers me the most interesting positions. I trust the brand's prestige and hope our professional relationship continues.

Dorothy Danahy enabled me to find a very good position in a law firm and to pursue a prestigious vocation that really suits me. Unfortunately things didn't work out for me in this position and I mistakenly assumed that Dorothy Danahy would withdraw their support. I was able to contact the team for assistance and I continued to have their support. I was very touched by that.

Broadly speaking, well done for your kindness, availability and professionalism which earn you such a good reputation. I am truly proud to be represented by you.

Edwige B.candidate

I arrived in France in 1983 and after my first few jobs as a classic secretary, I contacted the Dorothy Danahy recruitment agency in the 1990s as I was very interested in their job vacancies for native English speakers.

My first encounter with Dorothy Danahy and her team was very positive and throughout my career, with their help, I have been able to develop my profession as a PA.

When I was recently ill and away from work for 8 months, Dorothy always kept in touch with me, to see how I was getting on and to keep my spirits up: I really appreciated this very kind thought.
