Situated a short walk to the left of Enfield Town train station. Friendly staff but a shame there's not much variety in opportunities. read more

CTS Recruitment
This was an interesting venture in doing the jobs that we are told the British are too lazy to do…read more Although I have to say it was mainly immigrants I was working with. I'm giving three stars because CTS did try for me and Lindsey at CTS took my side and was sympathetic. It also gave me the opportunity to process back quite a large tax refund. I think however it was a bit of a cheek of CTS to charge workers for their minibus services to/from hard to reach nursing homes. I don't know if they still do this as they did when I worked through them in 2008. This is about the only piece of employment I've had by consulting the Jobcentre which goes to prove how unpleasant they are. First assignment at CTS -one day of hospital cleaning at Central Middlesex was actually quite pleasant. Young black guy in charge who was reasonable and ensured we had adequate breaks. After a world cruise holiday from Australia CTS found me more work. I lasted three days at a hospital in south London for a job that was scheduled to last a month. I am quite a hardworking person who just gets on with a job but this was real slave labour from a European female manager - I wouldn't have lasted if it had been paying 25 Pounds an hour let alone 6 Pounds 50. This job was made worse by constant nagging from a young African woman on some sort of mission. Even by Lindsey's own admission the manager at this assignment was a slave driver. Nursing home cleaning in Essex and Hertfordshire followed by my having to tube it to Liverpool Street, train it to Waltham Cross and then have CTS' minibus fee deducted from my minimum wages. Some of the staff including one Polish manager were actually quite nice. However I found a general lack of patience by me being new to this type of work. Some of the old people in the homes were quite nice and the severely disabled in a ga ga vegetative state did not bother me. Mopping and lots of rooms need to be cleaned and hoovered before the minibus arrives to take you back to Waltham Cross and I did not get through my allotted number of rooms. The final, most unpleasant experience happened at a nursing home in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire. A permanent, English employee (although not my superior or manager) harangued, complained bullied to me all during my assignment. Now, I have worked for some demanding, volatile eccentric people who run tight ships and actually in a way quite liked them. But imagine the most hideous, nagging bitch from hell from Eastenders and you had this woman. I noticed she did not do the same to the African temp I was working with because she probably thought she couldn't get away with it. Lindsey was sympathetic however and told me that other Domestics of hers had encountered this unpleasantness. CTS did try but these jobs at the NHS and NHS and private nursing homes were very often made unnecessarily unpleasant. My experiences through these assignments have not made me feel any warmer to the NHS (which I already mistrust for good reason) or the care/nursing industry.

This branch of Brook Street have always been a little more responsive and friendlier than their…read moreClapham Junction branch. I've always found the staff efficient and friendly here and have even scored a few great job interviews. The place is pretty small and I found it a little intimidating when I went in to register - felt like everyone could here what I was saying, like an "all eyes on me feeling". Despite this though, I have no complaints about this place because it's always been good to me job-wise. If you're stuck for a job and need a temping solution fast or want to be considered for some good office jobs, I recommend you stop by Brook Street in Putney.

The Clapham Junction branch of Brook Street, I've never found particularly helpful at all. The staff are OK but mostly unfriendly and I just have the feeling they want to usher you along and don't really listen to what you want. My boyfriend was looking for office temp work between jobs once and got offered a job breaking bottles in a yard! If you're really desperate and don't like the job centre (it can be a little depressing in there), you can try this place but I wouldn't hold out, they're not really great and matching what you want to a great job to be honest...

I find their staff friendly and they sent me a birthday card which I thought was a nice touch. Way back in 1996/97 they had an office in Kingsway and they found me a nice part-time job at Parcelforce for about 4 months. They stuck with me even though I didn't complete an assignment once. Their old Oxford Street branch were also pro-active in finding me an administrative permanent job years ago which I stayed with for about 10 months (so they would have got their fees). Yes, so far I like Kelly Services Victoria branch and I'll see how it goes.

Even if you go at other times when they are busy they make a great effort to see you and help with your car.

Also there is no pressure sale there so you don't have to do the work there if you don't want to.

Also the showers never seemed to be a comfortable temperature. On the positive side though the grounds are very beautiful and the majority of the rooms are fine and some are very good. Improving the food should really be the first priority. The addition of a small gym would also be a good investment for this conference centre.

I was very happy to see that their clients can really afford a nanny as their pay is according to the job expectations. There are too many families out there who think nannies are cheap labour. Eden Nannies Agency is not far from Hammersmith Station, located in a small court off Shepherd's Bush Road.
