Recruitment Challenge : Finding people from the right vertical
Roger Castle from CenturyLink explains that his biggest recruitment challenge is finding people from the right vertical – finding both commercial experience and the right sector experience for the role.
CenturyLink
“Our most recent hire nearly didn’t happen. Only through the tenacity and insight of Howard and his team at Cedar were we finally persuaded to interview the candidate who we eventually hired, otherwise his CV could still be sitting on the ‘unlikely to be appropriate pile’. Cedar offer a genuinely consultative service and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.”
NSL Services Group
“Cedar quickly understood our needs and requirements and was very responsive and thorough during the entire process presenting us with relevant candidates. It was a pleasure to work with Cedar.”
Klarna
“I’ve used Cedar for recruiting into my team for several years, with them having placed more than half of my current team. They take the time to understand not only the technical requirements but also the personal requirements so that all candidates I see from Cedar are a good team fit as well as having the relevant experience and skills. I can always rely on Louise and her team!”
Royal British Legion
“I absolutely love working at Cedar. Everyone is so supportive and willing to help. There is such a lovely family feel and there is a great social side. We also have a great work life balance which is crucial.”
“Having dealt successfully with Cedar in the past, I was confident in appointing them to deliver this project and they again exceeded expectations. From start to finish they delivered a consultative and value added service, the culmination of which has meant we hired three great candidates. I have no hesitation in recommending Cedar.”
