The team were very understanding and supportive and found a well-paid locum job in a very welcoming team in a Regional Hospital. There was always good communication, arranging all the paperwork and constantly checking in to see how the job was going, and the accounts team were very happy to work with my requests to enable sacrifice of pay to increase Super contribution.<\/p>\r\n<p>A great experience. I would recommend to any who are looking to engage in locum practice to contact DNA Recruit.<\/p>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"avatar avatar-63 photo\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a919e65c4046f79f0a6076094117ce72?s=63&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a919e65c4046f79f0a6076094117ce72?s=126&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g 2x\" alt=\"\" width=\"63\" height=\"63\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>Ben Harkin<\/p>\r\n<p>Doctor<\/p>\r\n<p>Candidate<\/p>\r\n<p>Bev was recommended to me by another doctor, and I can see why. From our very first contact, she has been warm, encouraging, and extremely helpful. I\u2019ve had some difficult personal circumstances, which I was afraid would affect my ability to work. Bev has gone above and beyond to find me work, and been incredibly supportive throughout the process.<\/p>\r\n<p>I\u2019ve worked with several locum agencies in the past, and most of them just do the bare minimum (which I don\u2019t begrudge). But Bev has been an absolute joy to have as my agent, and I\u2019ve already referred another colleague to her. Even Veronika in payroll has been very helpful, friendly, and accommodating.
