A very good experience working with Mike McEvoy and the VIQU team right from the start. All the contract details were done with ease on their website which made the whole process of setting up and getting started straight forward. Probably the best I have experienced in my ten years as an IT contractor.

I would highly recommend VIQU to anyone looking for contract work in the IT sector. They are a forward thinking, passionate and a well-connected team. I have enjoyed multiple placements through their Birmingham office over the last 18 months.
