Despite Frasia not being directly involved in these discussions, I asked her for some advice on salary negotiation and she gave me some really good advice resulting in me being offered a partnership role which was beyond my initial expectations.

Alison Urquhart – May 2019

“I was so impressed with the service of everyone I came into contact with at FWA. They were extremely responsive to every email/call and they were very pro active in contacting me about opportunities that may interest me.  I was contacted by a number of recruiters whilst looking for a NQ position and can say that my experience with FWA was by far the most positive.”

NQ Solicitor – May 2019

“I found it very easy to speak to everyone and level of contact was just right for me. Everyone is very friendly and approachable. Frasia gave some very sound advice.”

Senior In-house Solicitor – May 2019

“I found all consultants which I liaised with to be informative, friendly and always approachable. Although I mostly dealt with Karen and Cameron, they always made sure I had someone to speak to in their absence. I found Karen to be extremely approachable and knowledgeable and I often received quick responses from her in relation to all of my queries. I have no hesitation in recommending FWA to people. I received a good level of interaction and contact throughout, including and not limited to the job search, interview stage, job acceptance, and then finally throughout the job phase.

I am extremely grateful to FWA for giving me the opportunity to apply for the jobs which I was successful in obtaining. Very grateful for the support, interaction and guidance provided.”

Zahrah Iqbal – April 2019

“Frasia was excellent, always available found me the ideal job in the right location.”

“Simply brilliant.”

FWA Interim Solutions Agency Worker – March 2019

“Working with both Frasia and Teddie has been an absolute pleasure. They had taken time to appreciate my interests and the direction I wanted to take in the beginning of my career. They provided me with guidance and support throughout the whole process and were there when I needed any assistance. With their knowledge of the legal market, they were able to assess how viable it would be for me to make a move within an area that I had no experience in. With this they provided me with the encouragement and support to pursue the next step in my career and helped me land my dream role! I just want to take this opportunity to say thank you very much for your services.

Karen was also a pleasure to deal with. She answered all my questions and easily guided me through the recruitment process. A massive thank you to her also.”

Senior Solicitor looking for an In-house role – March 2019

“I was impressed. I wanted something out of the ordinary at my career stage and I felt that Frasia understood what I was looking for and made serious suggestions. In the end I found a role through my own connections, but if I had not I think Frasia would have found the right role for me ultimately.”

In-house Solicitor – February 2019

“Excellent in all respects.”

Experienced Lawyer looking to make the move back from London – February 2019

“Every member of staff that I had contact with was first class.

As someone who has spent the last 12 months or so exploring the NQ employment market I have came into contact with a number of different recruiters and agencies. FWA have been by far the best and most responsive of them all. As a recent NQ who was looking for a change in practice area my impression was that many recruiters and agencies failed to take onboard what I wanted from my next job. In my opinion many were merely attempting to “shoe-horn” me into roles which I simply did not want to move into. In contrast, all of my contacts at FWA (but primarily Teddie), took the time to listen to what I wanted in terms of my next career step and provided me relevant options and sound advice. Teddie’s regular communication, email/telephone updates and general manner was first class. The whole experience of using FWA was extremely positive, and the professionalism of all the Associates that I dealt with really sets apart from its competitors.”

NQ Solicitor making the move In-house – December 2018

“Great, easy to get a hold of, quick responses, friendly and helpful.

Fantastic, everyone was really helpful and friendly. Phone call with Frasia before the interview was crucial in calming my nerves and she had some good tips. The partner interviewing me had also used Frasia when he was starting out which was great in the interview. The follow up after I had gotten the job was also appreciated and a nice touch. I had a great experience and would highly recommend FWA to anyone looking for a job in the legal sector.” – Stephen Fitzpatrick

Trainee secured NQ position – December 2018

“I was very happy with the access and level of contact provided by the consultants at Frasia Wright Associates. From initial discussions on ward the level of contact was excellent. I never felt out of the loop and I genuinely got the impression the consultants cared about finding me a suitable position. I have had little success with other mainstream agencies which has disappointed me in the past; it was like I was immediately forgotten about! Thankfully, this wasn’t the case at FWA. In the end, I felt like FWA’s confidence in me was rewarded because within a short period of time I was offered a very good position, having been searching for relevant opportunities for the best part of a year.

Very personal and very professional service. Other mainstream agencies should take note!”

Candidate keen to develop their career – December 2018

“In the past year FWA guided me to a successful placement and very competently managed my work arrangements, once placed, very efficiently. All my queries were responded to promptly and effectively.”

FWA Interim Solutions Agency Worker – Nov 2018

“Despite not securing my eventual role through FWA, Teddie and Frasia were great in keeping me updated on relevant in-house roles over the course of the last year. The key thing for me is that Teddie sent me relevant roles – not just mindlessly sending me everything to secure a fit. I appreciated that a great deal, and I trusted FWA because of that. Undoubtedly for me, FWA are the best recruiters in the Scottish market I have dealt with. There are others in the market who have pushed roles which clearly not a good fit for me – not once did I feel Teddie did that. For me, FWA are in a league of their own – and they will be my first port of call if I make a move in the future.

Great service and I appreciate your help over the last year.”

Candidate exploring relocation options – Sept 2018

FWA also has an excellent knowledge of the market. FWA managed to secure 5 interviews for me, some of which included top firms, and as a result I have now secured a position with a big firm in Glasgow which I am delighted with. I was impressed with the frequent communication (whether it was providing an update on an ongoing vacancy or advising of other vacancies) along with necessary advice to accompany this. I am very grateful to FWA for their service.”

Commercial Contracts Lawyer, secured an In-house role on returning to work in Scotland – November 2017

A great benefit to be able to discuss matters confidentially outwith work. Compared to other legal recruitment agencies FWA was head and shoulders above the rest. Other agencies would take your details and you would never hear from them or you would not be clear how the information was being used. I never felt that with FWA.”
