Testimonials

Don’t just take our word for it

 

We have worked with Smart CAD for 2 years and have been very pleased with the quality and skills of their engineers. Their UK team has continued to deliver excellent ongoing support to us. We now have 6 people working for us on a long-term basis.

Mark Cadby

CTO

Smart CAD have always delivered strong shortlists of vetted candidates in very tight timescales. We have now built a team of 10 with them and the turnover of our engineers has been extremely low. We’d strongly recommend using them.

Cameron Wade

Managing Director

The engineer Smart CAD provided to us works the same hours, joins all our meetings and is permanently contactable. The support of their UK team in the background has removed the risk of remote hiring. As we grow we’ll continue to use them.

Peter White

Director

Smart CAD has provided us with an excellent Senior Engineer. The recruitment process was quick and effective. Our engineer brings fantastic new knowledge and experience into the team. We see him as a very long-term asset to our business.

Jeremy Burgess

Director

Smart CAD has provided us with an excellent Senior Engineer. The recruitment process was quick and effective. Our engineer brings fantastic new knowledge and experience into the team. We see him as a very long-term asset to our business.

Oliver Rebbeck

Creative Director

Would highly recommend Smart CAD. We had a new engineer starting with us just a few weeks after making first contact. Their UK team has checked in with us regularly since, helping to get the best out of our new employee.

Tom O’Harrow

Tech Product Manager

Smart CAD has a really thorough process and their initial screening of candidates saved us a lot of time. They found several candidates that met our requirements and the dev that we hired has fitted in really well and is proving to be a real asset.

Dave Ackrill,

Head of Operations

Smart CAD’s process was seamless. Our goal was to find someone who would fit perfectly into our team, to deliver high value, and that’s what we got. The feedback calls with their UK team since have been useful. A highly recommended service.
