Intertia's Words
In three months, Tom from People8 has made a significant impact on our recruitment efforts. The team have successfully appointed 3 quality candidates and built a tailored database of over 400 potential hires, who align well with our business needs.
Tom’s confident and consistent approach has not only delivered excellent results but also saved us considerable time and money by reducing our reliance on external recruitment agencies and streamlining the involvement of our hiring managers.
Thanks to the foundation People8 have laid, we are now preparing to implement a strategic recruitment outreach that will allow us to create meaningful touch points with the candidates in our database. This initiative will strengthen our talent pipeline and ensure we’re well-positioned for future hiring needs.
Tom is a proactive and reliable professional who understands our goals and delivers. We’re excited about the direction our recruitment strategy is heading and grateful to have People8 driving this forward.
