How does a recruiting firm deliver value? (part 1 of a series)

Clearly all companies, regardless of the business they are in, are NOT created equal. I believe this is especially true in the business we are in - the business of recruiting temporary and permanent talent for our partner organizations.

So how does a recruiting firm like Perceptive Recruiting deliver maximum value, especially in the world of IT? A great deal happens behind the scenes to vet and present suitable candidates to our partners. Each process step represents an opportunity to maximize the value we can deliver. Over the next few weeks I plan to capture how the team here at PR maximizes our value proposition to our partners.

First, and possibly the greatest opportunity to maximize the value we deliver is rooted in our corporate philosophy: Focus!

Focusing on "the one thing" is inherently valuable to our partners. Why? Because we have a much keener sense of both the talent pool within a given geographic area, and how some of the subtler skill subsets will mesh with our clients' needs and existing technical communities. A company that attempts to be all things to all people fails to do anything well. There are simply too many moving parts to effectively identify and master multiple disciplines in the recruiting business.

This is why PR has chosen the field of information technology as its sole focus, and why we can master the business of knowing your business in a way that delivers maximum value.​
