Testimonials
If I had to sum up my experience with the Dorothy Danahy agency in 3 words, I would choose the following:
Professionalism
Efficiency
Approachability
Indeed after a first interview, I was quickly contacted by the Dorothy Danahy team for a permanent position in a management consultancy, and for the past year and a half I have worked as an Assistant for this company.
When actively looking for a new job, you need a consultant who listens to you, understands your expectations and answers any questions you may have.
The Dorothy Danahy team was forthcoming, professional, reactive and attentive. They had faith in me and thanks to them I am lucky enough to have a stable and interesting job.
Thank you again to Clémence, Cyril and the whole of the Dorothy Danahy team.
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!
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.
When I met Dorothy for the first time it was in 1996. I was only a "baby" then as she likes to say...
Fifteen years have passed and when I look back over my career, I realise how precious her help, guidance and support have been to me.
My career couldn't have been what it is without you.
Many thanks.
Dorothy Danahy is simply the best recruitment consultancy in Paris for bilingual Executive Assistants! I found the team highly efficient, professional, very approachable and smart. Not only they were interested in finding out about my requirements and interests but they also took into account my personality to find the ideal position I was after andÉ they also had clearly understood the type of Office Manager/Executive Assistant my employer was seeking for his company. It has been a win for all of us!
I would recommend Dorothy Danahy to candidates AND to employers; they do not simply fill positions they identify the right partnerships.
Dorothy Danahy and her team are in my eyes the best recruitment company in Paris.
Not only do they offer to candidates fabulous positions, but they have the gift of making you feel special and unique, they always keep in touch and follow you up.You are considered as an individual and not just a C.V.
Dorothy Danahy has a real feel for people, she and her team really "get to know you" in order to help you really find your dream job!
I've known Dorothy Danahy and her team since 2009. They never let me down even when I was feeling low and unsure of myself, they find the right words to boost my confidence. What more can a candidate possibly wish for!!
Thanks to them I found the position that I always and only dared to wish for.
I'm always very proud to give Dorothy Danahy's name to a future candidate or employer, and touched that I was asked to write a testimonial...
I have known Dorothy Danahy for more than 10 years and the contact that I have with all of the team, as with Dorothy Danahy herself, is of an excellent quality, based on a true understanding of my needs and requirements, great professionalism and excellent advice.
In a specialised and demanding environment, we have developed a relationship of trust, respect and collaboration, for which I am very grateful.
Their methods are targeted and adapted to specific market requirements; they keep in touch, their manner warm and personable.
I have no hesitation in recommending Dorothy Danahy for its high-level recruitment.
I never actually chose to be an assistant. It was just the way things turned out for me and the natural conclusion to the line of education I chose to follow. I now realise, however, that it really was the perfect job for me because it meant that I got to do what I really enjoy in life; helping people. To be an assistant it is so important to feel a sense of service in your job and to have a very optimistic approach to life. You are constantly under pressure to perform and therefore organisation, flexibility and of course enthusiasm are all essential for the role.
I first met the team at Dorothy Danahy SAS in August 2004 and was rapidly placed in a globally renowned financial group in September 2004 and have been working there for 6 months. I couldn’t believe how quickly things moved for me and it was really thanks to their help and efficiency that I am where I am today!
If I could give one piece of advice to those looking for an Assistant position on the market today, it would have to be to improve your English. The job market is already hard enough as it is, so having English is an invaluable asset in order to get ahead of the game. It is also essential to remember that there will always be obstacles to overcome when it comes to finding and then keeping a job, however they should be viewed as challenges and not dilemmas because there really are no problems, only solutions.
It was time for me to give new meaning to my professional life. After several years spent assisting the management team of an SME, I wanted to join a company with international scope. For this, I needed real expertise and astute assistance from a reliable team with a solid network and a true understanding of my requirements. And those of their clients! Dorothy Danahy helped me to accurately identify my ambitions and steered me towards companies that suited my know-how perfectly. Today I work for the Marketing and World Distribution Manager of an insurance and banking group. I'm thrilled.
I have now known the Dorothy Danahy team for more than 10 years, and the agency have helped me to find relevant, high-quality jobs on several occasions.
First of all, at Dorothy Danahy, it is the welcome that is impressive. In addition to the traditional tests, it is the interview that really makes the difference. There is an attentiveness and a real desire to truly understand the candidates and their motivations. I told myself Òfinally, people that are really interested in us assistantsÓ and not a millionth recruitment agency recruiting an assistant to make their client happy and understanding nothing.
Then comes the customer service; always the same consultant, we don't have to continually repeat our background, our career, our wishes. And the positions that they propose are a perfect match to our experience and temperament: never a nasty surprise, never any stonewalling.
Top notch professionals who know how to match the right candidate to the right job.
