I highly recommend the services of Hazel and the team at Abbertons Human Resources to any job seekers.” – Katie Vonhoff
“ We had a staff member leave in a hurry due to medical reasons, and had no time to scan through resumes or shortlist potential candidates.
We knew of Abbertons Human Resources in Toowoomba, and that they held a very prestige reputation, and decided to employ their services.
It only took one phone call, one face to face meeting to establish our needs, and as they understood that we had limited time, our requirements were met.
We now have the perfect fit in our business and couldn’t be happier and wouldn’t hesitate to use Hazel and the team at Abbertons again, they made our working life very easy.

"Abbertons were extremely professional, efficient and responsive to all needs of the project. With such a short lead time provided also, I was hugely impressed with Abbertons management & staff performance. The client's expectations were exceeded by staff provided."
Lauren Trevenen - The Event Space
"Once again you have gone above and beyond to fulfill our requirements. We sought a desired timeline of a week to provide suitable candidates and we naturally expected that it wouldn’t be achievable. However, you provided us with four outstanding candidates within the week and by Friday we were able to fill the position. The background checks and vetting on the applicants provided us with four well suited candidates to choose from. Thanks for your attention to detail in matching the applicants against our selection criteria. Tricia has proven to be a valuable staff member and a pleasure to work with."

"The team at Abbertons came out, and I must admit wandered around and asked a lot of questions. My initial thought was, what is this all about - just send me the right person for this job. What they were doing was getting a feel for the business culture and a job description for the position to be filled."
