Messly has been very helpful. It has helped me find the right agency for my location. It's one reference tool is another amazing tool as you can use one reference for different agencies. Thanks Messly Nawal
Messly did nothing to accelerate the process of signing up for locum work. The agencies contact you separately and then you must duplicate all sign up forms and processes. You must also respond to them separately - via email, text or even phone calls, whatever each agency uses normally. So messly doesn't even reduce the bureaucracy of picking up shifts. Not to mention there is insane competition for locum work currently, which will only worsen. It's not worth the time, just emigrate.
Messly is very efficient way of getting into locum work. I found the team on Messly very helpful and supportive all the way through till I got my first locum shifts. The system of having everything in one place and not having to repeat all the checks and references for each single agency is really innovative and saves time and effort. I would definitely recommend Messly for any doctor
I think everything about messly is great, except for the fact that some of these agencies make you go through the rigors of everything you've done on messly again, and that is so tiring.
Quick and put me in touch with agencies efficiently Easy to use website
Great app for linking with locum agencies to find jobs.
Messly is a very easy to use website which allows you to see the range of jobs and locums in your area. The OneRef system made it very easy to supply references to multiple locum agencies. I would definitely recommend this website to other doctors looking for locum work in their F3 year !
Messly made it easy to connect with locum agency and made the registration process easy. I don’t have to chase after agencies but agencies were the one trying to get me to register and work with them. Having all my documents in Messly means that I don’t have to be uploading these again with different locum agencies and having my references in the same place means my referees don’t need to be approached by different locum agencies every time I register with new agencies. Katie working for Messly was very helpful and always at hand to answer any questions and give advice.
Website is easy to navigate and you can clearly see the available jobs/agencies. Really helpful that you can upload your documents to one place for multiple agencies to view. Made the whole process of finding locum work away from my usual trust much easier!
Easy to use platform to get in touch with recruiters to find locum work.
Excellent website for any locum doctors looking for work. Messly is easy to navigate and has facilitated contact with locum agencies that have secured the last two jobs for me! 100% recommend!
Easy to use service that provides comprehensive assistance in accessing a variety of locum agencies. Means that I could shop around for the agency that I wanted based on their responsiveness, reviews, and possible jobs on offer. Additionally, allowed my to provide all of my documentation in a single easy to access place without having to resend to every separate agency. Truly brilliant! Cheers, Eliot
Messly has been fantastic. The documents section helped me get all my paperwork in order and prevented any delays registering with an agency! They kept me up to date with the locum climate and gave wonderful articles to optimise your employability! 100% recommend using Messly!
Very easy to use system for applying to locum agencies. My favourite part was being able to search for jobs and filter depending on pay rate and location. It was very easy to upload all your documents in one place and the oneref option was very useful as you only need to ask for references one time.
Really easy to organise locum work in the department and hospital of my choice. Thanks so much!
Main issue is that most of the jobs and shifts posted on here don’t actually exist, they’re just a way to attract you to agencies. Other than that it’s really good- an easy way to get in contact with new agencies and the referencing system/docs all in one place is brilliant
I signed up to several medical locum agencies with Messly. I managed to secure a long term post with one of the agencies. It was useful that documents and references could be uploaded on to one site which you have then control over regarding allowing access to chosen agencies. I would go through Messly for locum work again.
It’s a very useful website and the app is great if you’re starting off in your locum F3 year as it can help to point you in the right direction. It’s so useful having your own dedicated member of staff from the team to send queries to along the way and it overall provides a wealth of knowledge that would otherwise take you a while to learn about.

Jan 24,2024I think this is a great platform. It simplifies the process of dealing with multiple locum agencies at once by having a lot of your paperwork in the same place and offers a central hub to see what's available in your specialty across the country.
