Reviews

“HR wasn't even a thought until I had staff and then it was the biggest saviour ever. Arina has an incredible heart for both employees and employers and it shows. In the process of having to let someone go at work, Arina was professional but so kind. She was incredibly respectful throughout the whole process towards both myself and the staff member. Arina is so much more than just HR, she's passionate about people and educating her clients. Thank you for making the process more than bearable. I'm so glad I had help from AF Consulting!” Bernice

“Thank you to Arina and the team at AF Consulting! Your level of professionalism exceeds expectations. You made me, as a candidate, feel valued during the recruitment process. Your response time and attention to detail are qualities to aspire to.” Cindy Quickfall

“I needed help with a redundancy issue and approached AF Consulting on the recommendation of our accountant. I was most impressed by the dedication of AF Consulting - even though she was exceptionally busy at this time, Arina went out of her way to help. Thank you very much for being so approachable, for the quick responses and for your professionalism.” Joan Fraser

“Thank you very much for hosting the workshop for only two of us. We found the information you shared with us very helpful. It was good to meet you and hear about what your business offers. The workshop provided a clear insight into how important it is to maintain the correct records for staff. In an organisation run by volunteers, we don't necessarily have the infrastructure to employ people experienced in HR so it is reassuring to know that we can call upon your expertise when necessary. Thank you AF Consulting for a most beneficial morning.” Satisfied client

Her knowledge is deep and she makes everything easy to understand. We highly recommend AF Consulting for small to medium-sized enterprises, however, we are confident that she could handle large corporations too.” Leanne Dryburgh Hassal
