kingpin testimonial
Randstad Sales’s specialist telesales team have been providing Kingpin with quality candidates for both English speaking and bi-lingual roles in market research, lead generation, telesales and account management roles since February 2009.
delivering high standards
In the initial six months of this relationship our different approach to recruitment has paid dividends for Kingpin, meaning a reliable flow of high quality, ready to start telesales candidates are available even at the shortest of notice periods. Due to this, Randstad Sales have now been selected as sole supplier for all of Kingpins temporary and permanent recruitment needs, as Kingpin have every confidence in their abilities to meet their needs going forward.
Darren Cyrus, Head of European Telemarketing, has benefited from the different approach Randstad takes to recruitment - one tailored around his need for speed to staff up for important client campaigns. Previous agencies were content to send through multiple CVs for rounds of interviews. This meant that time for interview, screening and selection was needed, time Kingpin did not always have.
As an alternative, Randstad screen, qualify and select only those few candidates who have the right attitude, skill-set, and previous experience for his campaigns. Now, if Darren needs two new agents on a Monday afternoon, he calls us Monday morning. He receives this speed without sacrificing candidate quality. Candidates not only have strong skill-sets, but also previous experience with his competitors, so are used to switching between different campaigns and ideally suited to the outsource market.
a good personal relationship
As well as providing an efficient, personal approach to recruitment, Darren feels he has a strong working relationship with his Randstad account manager Marc, and can trust him to meet his changing recruitment needs going forward.
Darren describes his experience with Randstad as:
“Other agencies provide a standard service, which you need to work around. Randstad work around me to meet our (and our clients) exacting time requirements on projects, providing a consistently high standard of candidate, to start with us at lightning speed, in an efficient, friendly and honest manner.
We have reduced the time that we need to spend on recruitment dramatically working with Randstad, as they take all the hassle and organisation away. Because of this, we now feel we do not need to work with any other recruitment agencies to meet our staffing needs.”
