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.

I just wanted to thank you for everything you've done. I know it's your job, but on top of that you were just great. It's so nice to feel well looked-after, to have an attentive, cheerful person on the lookout for you. Working with Dorothy Danahy has been a very positive experience for me.

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

Very good welcome. The consultants, who have a very good knowledge of the current market, are friendly, very professional and provide excellent customer service both before and after each interview. The roles proposed are with good companies and are suited to each candidate's profile.

At this moment in time, it is the only agency that is attentive to candidates and offers tailor-made assistant positions.

Madlyne M.candidate

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

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.

Yoann L.candidate

I have known Dorothy Danahy for more than 10 years. During this time, I have had the pleasure of working with the agency as a candidate but also as a client.

My first experience with Dorothy Danahy was while looking for a position as an Assistant. The agency proposed several opportunities to me and I was quickly recruited.

Their ability to find positions that are perfectly matched to each candidate and the quality of their service are both very impressive.

I have also worked with Dorothy Danahy as a client on several occasions, to conduct recruitments for permanent or cover positions. The respective recruitment processes went well, from the identification of suitable profiles through to the signing of the contract, not forgetting the organisation of interviews.

Dorothy Danahy and all of her team demonstrate true professionalism.

I am delighted to be able to recommend the services of Dorothy Danahy to my contacts. The feedback is always very positive.

Well done!

Gail C.candidate & client

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.

Marina C.candidate

I have recently found a permanent position through Dorothy Danahy.

I have been registered with them for around 2 years.

After the negative outcome of an interview a year ago, Dorothy Danahy proposed other roles to me but I was unable to accept as I was temporarily working abroad. Having said that, on my return to France, I immediately got back in touch with Dorothy Danahy who were delighted to assist me with my job search.

Put simply, DOROTHY DANAHY HAS THE RIGHT SKILLS, APPROACH AND KNOW-HOW.

I recommend that you get in touch with Dorothy Danahy if you are looking for someone to finally recognise your talents.

Stéphanie H.candidate

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.
