Johnson & Johnson – Central and Eastern Europe HR Manager
Helena Hladikova
Carlsberg – GM / Marketing Director
Depending on the need I could see as many options as possible. I was managed professionally and could relax in the process actually. I was happy with all the choices delivered and I am in personal contact with all the candidates who were recruited. They were simply not only perfect matches for the Job but also great people who became my friends.”
Piotr Chęcielewski
Kappa Packaging (previously Assidoman Packaging) - Managing Director
The service, and way of working by Grazyna and her team, created great trust, therefore, I always trusted the best candidates and talents were presented to me.
The recruited team had a big impact on the company’s performance, developed very successful, and created a very profitable business in a short time frame, with the result above the market average.
I can confirm that Grazyna with her team was a very reactive and reliable partner when it comes to sourcing talent, extremely customer-focused, well-grounded in the business itself with a great understanding of the dynamics, especially in specific industries needs and limitations.
The whole recruitment process and team-building were unique, also I gained a lot of additional experience, which developed a long-standing relationship based on trust and performance.”

Thanks to the good understanding of my needs and the specific of the company Elwira presented me with really good candidates and the chosen one become a very quickly really valuable team member.
It was a pleasure to work with such a professional partner who is acting with such understanding and full engagement – as a member of the company. Looking forward to cooperate in the future!”
Marcin Strzelecki
Uro-Onco FERRING Pharmaceuticals Poland - Business Unit Manager
All the candidates presented by her met my expectations, it was her candidate who was finally accepted and moreover, all of them were presented very fast – which, nevertheless, had absolutely no influence on the quality of her work.
The next thing is the communication – direct and open – just professional.
And what is even more important, I simply got to know Elwira and like her very much. Obviously, it cannot be treated as an objective and impartial opinion, but when it comes to working with people, it seems to be crucial.”

Ann-Charlott Östlund
Reckitt Benckiser Poland - Category Marketing Manager
The task wasn’t easy: we were looking for professionals with strong marketing competencies and a solid set of individual skills incl. dealing with ambiguity, data orientation, and can-do attitude.
On top of it – we had high expectations on the culture fit with a focus on ownership, achievement, entrepreneurship, partnership, and responsibility.
I truly admit that Elwira did an excellent job.
With the full understanding of the company culture and vacant position needs, she presented few individuals. We openly discussed their profiles in terms of strengths and opportunities.
The candidates we decided to hire proved to be a very good and prospective choice. They set up a team that in a sustainable way over delivered on business results and further have developed in the organization in various marketing and sales positions.
I have a great confidence that with Elwira’s business understanding and open communication you don’t waste your time – neither as a client nor as a candidate.”

Novo Nordisk Croatia - Market Access & Public Affairs Manager, BA Europe East
With those three words, I can shortly summarize my experience with GE Hunter and Grażyna.
They have displayed a deep knowledge of the pharma sector and a high level of professionalism and that is extremely important when you are working in a market where rumor spread rapidly.
On top of it, there was also warm human touch which I found very important in sensitive matters such as transition to a new company. Therefore, I would like to recommend them to all candidates that will have the fortune to be contacted by them”.
Marin Dumicic Ozempic
Walmark Group HQ based in Prague - Regional Marketing Director
She is very flexible to accommodate the candidate’s geographical challenge by using modern technology in the process. What is the last sign of great work done by Grażyna, is a follow-up after landing in the new job, to make sure both client and candidate (then already employee) are happy. Professional, helpful, communicative, flexible, and supporting from start till well after the finish. Strongly recommended to partner with”.
Grzegorz Przeczek
Monteloeder Spain - EMEA Sales Director
I add the opportunity to be contacted by them for the exact position I was looking for.
The care of the details, their availability during the whole process have been a real example of how recruiters should act.
Their transparency with me, and with the company that was looking for a candidate, is their major strength, including the right questions depending on the position they are offering.
As a candidate, I really appreciated their work, the serious they are, the rapid process, and the transparency in each moment.
A wonderful recruiter”.
