“Since the date of meeting with a representative from Hutchinsons, I had the most enjoyable experience. I had been in contact with various agencies in London who were very vague in terms of opportunities available, however this was completely different with Hutchinsons. Within 3 months of approaching Hutchinsons, I had secured a very desirable position which has the scope to travel the entire world.”
