Spam callers. they WILL harrass your 30+ calls over a month and they won't take a hint when you ask them to remove your details. I'd honestly get them done for stalking and harassment at this point.

Heel opdringerige recruiters. Zelfs na verschillende keren aangegeven te hebben dat ik geen interesse meer heb, blijven ze bellen en e-mailen.

I’ve been working with Vivid on a Belgium client project since 2018, and my experience has only been positive. Invoices have always been paid on time, and the communication with my agent has been excellent. I’ve had the same contact person since the start, and he has always been helpful and easy to work with. There was never any issue, and at the beginning they even supported me with the Belgian administration, which I really appreciated. After so many years without a single problem, I can honestly say Vivid is a reliable and supportive agency that I would gladly recommend.

I've been a freelancer for the better part of 30 years. Vivid has been able to provide me with the smoothest experience. They're thorough, helpful, and quick. No fancy stuff, just no-nonsense contracting, done well. A joy to work with.
I’ve worked with Vivid Resourcing on several freelance missions over the past few years, and my experience has consistently been excellent. Their consultants are professional, transparent, and genuinely invested in building long-term relationships — not just making quick placements. What I particularly appreciate is their efficiency: contracts are clearly communicated, onboarding is smooth, and payments have always been timely. They've also shown flexibility when project scopes changed, and were quick to help resolve any administrative issues. The roles they’ve proposed have consistently aligned well with my expertise, and they’ve taken the time to understand my preferences rather than sending irrelevant offers. This level of personal attention is rare in the freelance world. Overall, Vivid has proven to be a reliable and trusted partner in my consulting career. I look forward to continuing our collaboration.
I've always had good experiences with this agent. The contracts they have sent my way have always been relevant, and the staff I have spoken to have always been helpful. I'd happily work with them again in the future.
I am a freelancer (senior software engineer) based in Belgium, and have been working with Vivid for a few years now. I only have good things to say about Vivid. More important of all, the invoices are always paid on time 🙂 , and the people in the tech and admin staff and friendly and quick to help whenever a question arises. I would not say "when a problem arises" because I really haven't had any, at least none related to Vivid. I would definitely pick Vivid for my next professional adventure , or for my next team member, depending on which side I am on. Warmly recommended!
I am 5years+ in contact with that company and never had a single interview with customer, of course no project too, even when i have been told every single time that i am the perfect candidate for the project. All they want is my CV, references and the names of projects i currently apply for. And all they do with these information is, that they call my references and the companys i do apply and try to sell their own people. So never ever again. Untrustworthy behavior. One star here is too much.
These guys keep sending mails about opportunities, but try calling them and they will say the relevant guy is in a meeting and never responds to the calls or emails. I am skeptical of this firm. Highly irresponsible.
Vive Resourcing is a spam company. This company keep sending me email with Job Offers with a wrong name, never answer me back when I am providing feedback. I wrote a polite message to indicate the issue but no answer. My conclusion is that it is a fake company, spamming people's email.
Ive received many, many emails from several different 'names' within this agency. I dont know if they are real people or not! Emails regarding work in Europe and am I interested and they will call me. Well, theres no replies or calls from them and emails are not even opened as its easy to track this nowadays. Strange thing is the telephone number is in Germany and address in Glasgow!
Ich habe als Freelancer für VIVID-Resourching gearbeitet. Die Vertragsabwicklung un.d Bedingungen waren korrekt. Die Vermittler haben einmal in Monat Kontakt gehalten
Please inform Archie Brindle to STOP sending emails i didn't sign up to receive!!
Freelancers opgelet!! Ik wil mijn ervaring delen met Vivid resourcing. Ondanks dat het werk volledig is afgeleverd volgens afspraak en contract, weigeren zij al maandenlang de facturen te betalen. Herinneringen, aanmaningen, incassobureau's en zelfs deurwaarders hebben geen effect gehad. Dit is geen incident: online zijn er tientallen vergelijkbare ervaringen te vinden. Daarom raad ik mede freelancers aan om uiterste voorzichtigheid te betrachten bij samenwerking met dit bureau. Wie ook ervaringen heeft met Vivid resourcing neem gerust contact met me op. Misschien kunnen we samen sterker staan . #freelance#vividresourcing#wanbetaling
Zeitverschwendung für Freelancer. Es kommt zu keinem Kundengespräche. Aber an den Daten sind sie sehr Interessiert.
I have been in contact with Vivid Resourcing multiple times, which led to multiple jobs in Germany. I can highly recommend Vivid Resourcing to everyone looking for a job. Vivid is very professional, very resourceful and is definitely the best in the business.
I am happy working with Leo Cooper, a professional and knowledgeable individual, who is well-versed in the projects and client requirements. Rates were fair, and payment was on time.
I am super happy working with Leo Cooper and Jacob Wylie. They are both supportive, friendly. Correct. Payments are always on time.
I've worked with Vivid twice in the past years, specifically with Jacob Wylie and Leo Cooper. Both were very professional and knowledgeable about the projects and requirements from the clients. Rates were fair and payments always on time.
