They've made drastic changes to the company in the last year, and were recently voted the best company to work for in scotland.
Rise will soon been integrated with Response, within a year or so.

One from Edinburgh (can't remember exactly who) changed my CV for a job I managed to get an interview for, but despite repeated emails wouldn't actually show me what changes they'd made. That really hacked me off.
Joslin Rowe however, a specialist financial services agency, have always been pretty good to me though. Got a birthday card from them last year actually!  | |

Sorry, not company. Best Call centre to work for in scotland.
Its not on the Response website though, so I'm sure it's not an official award. Can't mind the name of the organisation that held the event, maybe Pete will tell us if he goes to the interview*. It was a big conference in the SECC I was at last year, september actually.
*Its one of the first things they mention at the response interview, i'm sure its the same at Rise due to the integration.

There you go Pete.
David Murray will be taking a £10 an-hour off your actual wage to pay for his pneumatic legs proto-type.
What more evidence do you need before you dingy it? Quote:

I've been through Rise twice. First time they put me in a decent job managing a team at RHL (when it was RHL.) Second time they put me back onto RHL (who by then were just Response) working on an inbound call centre line, it was terrible. Didn't manage more than a month.
