Hire Smart,
Scale Fast

We’ve worked with James and John at TheDriveGroup since 2019. Both James and John (as well as the wider business/team) have been critical to our success in scaling our teams. They’ve worked tirelessly on our behalf to find high-performing candidates suited to our business and our culture. Introducing us to some of the best talent across Golang, ReactJS, SRE/DevOps, Product Managers and UX/UI Designers and Senior Technology & Product Leaders. TheDriveGroup has always gone to market and nurtured the candidate process with dedication and integrity. I have had no hesitations in referring them to other business leaders needing support in tight labour markets.

TheDriveGroup was our main go-to recruitment agency for sourcing software engineering talent at both Love Agency and KPMG since 2016. When sourcing for a role, they consistently presented us with quality candidates which matched the desired budget. They had excellent communication and kept us updated throughout the process on how things were progressing. I found our dealings with them, to be honest and trustworthy, and would have no hesitation in recommending them as a recruitment agency for technology related roles.

I worked with Caoimhe over a long period filling several roles in my teams.

I can’t say enough good things – she was incredible professional, responsive, she knew the field, and appropriately hassled me to respond to things when I needed to.

She sourced really great candidates, who have stayed with the company for years.

James has proven countless times to be an incredible asset to our hiring. He has a great eye for talent, but more importantly, a great sense for who will fit well in our team and culture. Even more impressive that we were hiring for Melbourne while he worked from Sydney, but provided quality candidates each time. Highly recommend James if you’re looking to build a team that gels well and can get the job done.

We have worked with James Sullivan and the team from TheDriveGroup for a number of years. James has always shown professionalism, his approach is personable and he respects our recruitment process and the way we do things. He is responsive to questions and we are very satisfied with how James and his team has worked with us to help us fulfil our recruitment needs.

We found ourselves in a difficult position after internal changes resulted in key employee resignations. After trying to recruit via the traditional channels with little luck we sought the help of TDG who had helped recruit some of our existing team. What struck me was how highly staff spoke about their experience with TDG. In the first week we had a dozen CVs from high quality candidates that TDG helped filter down further using our own recruitment processes. The quality of candidates that we were sent in a period where JavaScript developers are in short supply was truely impressive. TDG have secured their position as our only preferred recruitment agency and are highly recommended.

I used James and TheDriveGroup often during my time at Woolworths Group. One of the best agency recruiters I’ve ever dealt with. James is honest, transparent and represented our brand and the role to candidates extremely well. With so many recruiters in the IT & Digital space around these days – I would HIGHLY recommend James and team – they are true experts in their field and provide a high level of market knowledge / insight. James is an absolute pleasure to deal with – ethical, not pushy and very fair from a cost perspective.

Our business requires us to hire quickly, at scale, with quality resources which need to be highly technical as well as consultative. John and his team have never let us down and will always go the extra mile to find niche candidates, quickly. They are an extension of our business and we would recommend them to anyone looking to hire great IT Staff.

In the “war for talent” in tech, John an his team have helped ReadyTech to attract and retain excellent software engineers by deeply understanding our business and specific needs and taking the time to match candidates thoughtfully, backed up by exceptional service.

Classy recruiters, always honest, reliable and above all knowledgeable. We use them for all of our digital and technical roles, they really understand who we are, what we do, and our culture. Never fail in finding us great people that have helped grow our business.
