5. Consultant Testimonials
Employee journeys and experiences
Tony Simms
Digital Recruitment Consultant
“Blu Digital is an amazing company to
work for. I have only been here for a short
period of time and I have received such a
warm welcome. Before I started at Blu
Digital I worked in a completely different
industry, however the training that was
provided was second to none and it has
helped me develop quicker than I had
expected.
The interview process is very straight
forward, with the opportunity to show how
determined you are as an individual and
prove how driven you are. I enjoy every
day here, we are not just a colleagues, we
are a family. We have fun along the way
but we also work extremely hard.”
Vikesh Patel
UX Recruitment Consultant
“Blu Digital is a supportive, nurturing and
friendly environment to work in. Whether
you have experience in recruitment or not,
everyone is very open and welcoming.
Recruitment can be hard work but Blu
Digital helped to curb this as much as
possible so that you can build a long
lasting and lucrative career.”
Trishna Mistry
Office and Marketing Assistant
“As a fresh graduate I was eager to find a
fulfilling career path which I could get my
teeth stuck into. When I came across the
opportunity at Blu Digital it sparked my
interest. However, I didn’t fully realise the
potential and opportunity that a small,
growing business really presented until I
joined. Since beginning as an intern, I have
grown to take responsibility of both the
marketing and internal recruitment, which
is testament of what you can achieve in a
small space of time if you really put your
mind to it.
We are a family here and this is exemplified
by the exceptional guidance and support
that is provided, not only as part of
training, but throughout your whole growth
process. We also care about your personal
goals here, no dream is too big to be
achieved.”
6. Nayim Uddin
Senior Technical Consultant
“When I was searching for a new role I already knew that I wanted to
get into Digital Recruitment as it is one of the biggest markets you
can be in. Every commercial business needs to be digital and
tech-savvy and are always hiring.
I interviewed with a few Digital Recruitment agencies however what
impressed me about Blu Digital was the success that they had over a
short space of time. I knew that having the right attitude, combined
with the support and training (which is provided) I would have a lot of
success at Blu.
The progression and rewards here are fantastic. I have eaten at some
of the best restaurants in London and had some memorable nights
out with the team. I’ve noticed that hard work really does pay off. The
team is fantastic, we all want to be successful and we motivate each
other to reach our goals.”
Chloe Ford
Recruitment Team Leader
“When I first started at Blu Digital I didn’t realise how much of an
opportunity it actually was. Now three years down the line I am glad
to say it is the best decision I have ever made.
Being one of the first into a company such as Blu has given me
opportunities for progression and development that you can’t find in
many other places. I am now leading the digital marketing team and
plan to make sure that everyone on the team has as much support
and guidance from me so that they too can achieve the success I
have had.
Recruitment isn't always easy, however the commission scheme and
incentives mean that hard work is definitely rewarded. The team and
culture is another reason why I love working here - everyone is
incredibly supportive of each other and we celebrate success as a
team.”

At Blu Digital, we believe the best training is done on the

This will also include regular catch-ups throughout the

most of the time in the office

refresher training sessions, both individually and with
the rest of the team. As well as this we also do monthly
appraisals where targets are set and you are given
guidance to help you reach your goals and objectives.

earn up to £60k. We aim big and we want our
consultants to do so too!

10. What does the future hold?
Set to become the biggest agency in digital recruitment
Our aim is to double in size by the end of the year, and this is
something we will continue to maintain year on year. This will push
us in the right direction of opening up offices overseas and, in turn,
being able to expand into new areas within digital. With the strong
talent we have amongst the employees, our service is second to
none and will help us in becoming the number one digital recruiter
of choice.
Blu Digital are a strong advocate of organic growth, promoting
from within; therefore career progression is very structured with an
extremely attentive support network. There is a real opportunity for
employees to progress to a Senior Consultant very quickly and in
two to three years' time to be managing their own teams. However,
progression doesn't stop there, there is a chance to become a
future leader at Blu Digital.
