Testimonials

Quote / Testimonial:
“I am thankful to the entire International Recruitment team for treating us as a family. I have felt supported when I arrived and getting ready for my role within NHSAA. I feel we received more help than we arriving and settling into our relocation life. My favourite thing about Ayrshire so far is the respect and care we get anywhere we go and within the Hospitals”

“Moving to NHSAA has been an amazing experience for me, the International Recruitment team are so welcoming and friendly, I did not feel lonely. I haven’t needed to ask for help since arriving, help was always available without even asking! I did not struggle to find my way around as everyone involved in my travel was so lovely and helpful. The package is very helpful, 110%! I felt as though I already knew the place even before I travelled. It contained so much information and guidance. It even put me at ease on my first flight ever! Honestly, I personally feel the whole team handling International Recruitment goes above and beyond in the whole process and can’t think of anything that requires improvement!”
