Has anyone heard of a Sheffield company called Bertie Gertie's?

Above.

I applied for a job with them this morning as an Office Assistant as I have a good telephone manner and can type 60 wpm accurately and have excellent IT skills including the full suite of MS Office products such as Word, Access, Excel and Powerpoint.

I just Googled them and they're based fairly local to me, on what looks like the Industrial estate at Neepsend according to the photo on Google.

Anyway, has anyone worked or does work for them? Are they any good? I've asked my Brother who's in cyber security to check them out as well.

The website is https://www.rlalaser.co.uk/ (Note to the Mods, please don't delete this link, I am not advertising)

I completed an online assessment for the company this morning which I think I did OK on.

Just a thought @MrAllen1976 — given how much employers research their prospective employees through the social media space, I’d probably avoid naming the places you’ve applied to work here. I don’t see it being to your advantage!

I can’t say I’ve heard of them, but good luck with the job hunt.

It would worry me that they give neither telephone details or a physical address on their website, and I would agree with @Adrian_Scope about publishing details of where you have applied as many prospective do a deep search of the internet to check your background.
But anyway good luck.

Hmm, according to this Google search results page https://www.google.com/search?q=bertie+gerties+sheffield&rlz=1CAEGXD_enGB919&oq=&aqs=chrome.0.35i39i362j46i39i175i199i362j35i39i362l6...8.25964896j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 they don't have a landline, just a mobile number, seems a bit suss to me.

I've asked my Brother to check them out as mentioned.

Well my Brother's come back to me saying it looks legit, so I'll see if they accept the results of the assessment and take my application any further, the lack of a proper online presence or landline phone number does concern me though.
