Candidate Recommendations
“From the initial contact, through to successfully negotiating my new appointment, Adventure were efficient and professional in helping me move my career forward. They were always keen to ensure the opportunities were right for me and displayed patience whilst we searched for the appropriate position.” Simon Britnell, Art Director, NCsoft
“Adventure found me the most prestigious job there was out there. I don’t know how they do it, but they can truly see potential and match it with the best opportunity available in the industry. They made me understand why it is so important to have a 3rd party handling discussions between you and a potential employer. They were actively involved in contract negotiations and took charge of sensitive questions and my personal requirements. They got things done for me that I’d never dare ask in an interview. They can find parts of your experience and sell it to the most demanding employers, making the most complicated decision a breeze. They may be in the recruiting business, but I see them as a career manager and partner, and have a team working around the clock to make magic happen.” Frederic Poirier, Game Art and Animation Director, DQ Entertainment
“Adventure are very persistent and hands on when it comes to recruitment and I had no problems securing employment with their services. If they call you, pick up the phone!” Josh Smillie, Game Designer, Action Pants (Ubisoft)
“Adventure acted tirelessly on my behalf to secure a deal with Action Pants Inc, whilst Joseph was on his vacation. Now that’s dedication to his profession. Need less to say I was extremely happy with their performance and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services in the future.” Ian Maude, Senior Digital Artist, Action Pants (Ubisoft)
“Adventure Recruitment have a very no-pressure no-BS approach to recruitment, as far away from the “any job as long as I gets my commission” mentality as you can get. I’d have no hesitation to use their services in the future.” Julian Gold, RSDE, Microsoft Research Ltd
“I highly recommend Joseph and Adventure Recruitment’s services to people and companies alike. I have found Joseph to be the most professional recruiter I’ve ever worked with. He strives to ensure all parties feel they are getting a great deal and understands games industry job roles with a great deal of clarity. I have worked with Joseph on three occasions, he secured me a position at EA Canada going to great lengths to contact me based on a recommendation from one of my former colleagues; and at when he contacted me directly for the position I now hold at Codemasters; and he is currently working with us to provide additional staff for our development team.” Steve Baker, Principal Programmer, Codemasters
“Working with Adventure was a great experience! They handled my file promptly, and did a great job of taking care of me from beginning to end. They had good advice, understood of all my needs and requests, and did it all with good mood and energy.” Alexandre Hadjadj, Programmer, Rockstar Games
“Out of all the recruitment agents I have worked with Adventure provided the most professional care and dedication to finding the correct companies for me. They take time to find out who their clients are and put in a personal touch that is frankly missing from other recruitment agents.” Byron Atkinson-Jones, Console Programmer, Lionhead Studios (Microsoft)
“Joseph has helped me procure employment on two occasions, and did a fantastic job of finding me the right fit each time. What impressed me most was how he made each process personable yet professional. He knows the industry and all relevant issues very well. I would work with him again, and I have recommended him to others with confidence.” Jeff Ross, Senior Designer, Sony Computer Entertainment
“Joseph Cairns is one of the most professional and caring person I’ve ever met. Without him I would probably not be where I am now. When I got a new job through him he made sure that everything went well. He’s a real friend and I know I can count on him. I recommend him to anyone.” Cedric Lallain, Senior Programmer, Naughty Dog
“Sahil and Adventure have good connections and are able to find positions that are good matches. He is also very professional and courteous on the phone.” Kin Wai Choi, Senior Programmer, Heavy Iron Studios
