“I had the opportunity of working with BeautyConnections Australia when I was applying for jobs awhile back. I have worked with several recruiters in Australia but it’s very rare to find one that genuinely cares about the candidate. Erica has the ability to understand exactly what the company’s and candidate’s needs are, and find the perfect match. I remember having two formal interviews with Erica prior to meeting her client and the interview process was extremely thorough. While ensuring that I had all the experience, knowledge, skills and was a good cultural fit for the company she also ensured that she found out exactly what I was looking for. Would definitely recommend BeautyConnections Australia to any candidate that’s looking for a new role.”

“When we talk about recruitment in the beauty industry, Erica is one of the few who is both insider and outsider that can help you achieve the following: ...Professional and smart “match making” between your openings and talent in the market ...Working out the missing pieces in the puzzle of capability/experience/network of your organization vs. the industry's trends with you ...Providing lots of practical recommendations on how to help the new hires, especially those who are quite established in the industry, to fit in your culture, from survive to lead. What makes Erica and BCA your “must-have” recruitment partner is very simply: ... She’s got an in-depth knowledge of the beauty industry, which is very rare for the recruiters/executive search firms in Australia ...She cares about your business, rather than “selling” her candidates to fill in the roles ...She DEVOTES TIME to finding good matches.”
