Feedback

“Honesty, clarity and transparency in communication immediately set People Focus apart. In every segment, you can feel that the focus is on humans, on people. The interview with the partner was easy and smooth, and I immediately felt the values that the company represents, which coincided with my energy and expectations. I have the impression that I was carefully selected and I was offered the company and the position that best fit my further ideas of professional development.”

Goran Marinković
Key account manager
“What you feel immediately when you first come into contact with the recruiters is the warmth and friendly approach. You can feel the difference immediately because the company’s focus is clear: to find the best solution for the candidate. Although in my case it required more effort and commitment, with the support of People Focus we managed to solve all the challenges, so in the end both I and the company I started working for are very satisfied.“

Petar Nikolić
Front end developer
“People Focus appealed to me primarily because the recruiter kept me informed of the progress of the process. This meant a lot to me because the position was a good fit for me, my skills, and what I want and how I want to develop professionally. I did not have any stress during the interview either, as the conversation was very friendly and pleasant. When I was hired, I also received additional help. Saša helped me move to Serbia and get the documents I needed.“
