Employers’ Testimonials

RECRUITMENT BUSINESS PARTNER, TIMELY COMMUNICATIONS 

“We have dealt with many search/recruitment agencies and found our experience with PrimeStaff was unexpectedly pleasant and rewarding one. The Consultants were prompt in responding to our recruitment needs. They quickly grasped our requirements and took the time to understand how we work as an organisation. The management of the candidate search and proposal process is excellent. They maintain timely communication with us and have been able to deliver good quality candidates for us and on-time.

In this increasingly competitive market, search/recruitment agencies need to empathise more with the requirements of the employing organisations. This should be prioritised over agency sales targets. We consider PrimeStaff a recruitment business partner, like an integral part of our organisation, as they are interested in wanting to help with our staffing problems rather than simply achieving sales targets. This sets them apart from their competitors.

We will be most willing to recommend PrimeStaff to our counterparts and any business contacts who may have recruitment needs.”

STRONG LEADERSHIP, RESILIENCE 

 “For our business, the challenge to have the right professionals on board, on time and within budget is critical to ensure business success. PrimesStaff listened to our brief, learned about us and consulted superbly. Your team of Consultants impressed us not only with the calibre of individuals presented but the fact they took the time to truly match each candidate with our hiring specifics.

I applaud Ronald for your leadership and being successful in instilling strong culture and good business practices and values in your people. Your positive attitude is both uplifting and infectious and I believe such attitude has enabled you to weather through the various economic ‘tsunamis’ over the past 17 yrs. You are modest about your business success and do not let complacency and pride get in your way which some business men do and sadly to their ‘demise’.

I wish you and PrimeStaff continual business success and will certainly keep you and PrimeStaff in mind when I have any other HR services requirements.”

BUSINESS ETHICS, SOUND STRATEGY

“When we hire a recruitment outsourcing partner, we look for commitment and efficiency. This is clearly seen in the team at PrimeStaff. Ronald’s team of recruitment consultants have been effective in their delivery and meeting my company’s hiring needs and expectations.  

I have known Ronald for some years and am impressed at how he has brought the company from a few men team to the current size. Ronald is one who does not allow external circumstances affecting the business landscape to put him down. He is able to respond well to such external changes with optimism and sound strategy. His strong business foresight helps him to anticipate the radically unexpected giving him the edge to proactively re-strategize to respond to the unexpected.

On a personal level Ronald is made of the highest ethical fibre I know and has a deep understanding of business “rhythms”. In sum Ronald is an excellent business partner and service provider with a passion for clear and practical approaches to meeting customer’s HR needs.”

CLEAR DIFFERENTIATION, SURPASSED COMPETITORS

“We started engaging PrimeStaff only recently starting in late 2009.  However the experience we had from the engagement far surpassed that of their competitors in the industry – this included the big names as well.  What made PrimeStaff stood out and be clearly differentiated from the others are as follows: 

1. Integrity:  They were not willing to compromise on integrity.  Even when it meant that they would put themselves at a disadvantaged position, they would rather walk away from a deal that is questionable or would require them to compromise on their integrity. 
2. Making money is not their priority:  PrimeStaff has demonstrated that they were willing to work with us despite knowing the tight budget constraint.  This was because PrimeStaff looks beyond the money they could make.  They were driven by their professionalism and passion to partner us in helping us to attract the best talents for the business.  They were not put off by the lack of money and lack of brand name.  True to their promise, they were able to help us comb the market and pick out some of the most rare and best talents in some of the toughest markets in the region.  The other vendors we approached were not willing to work with us without the huge budget.  We are extremely grateful to PrimeStaff for being a true partner in driving and building our company’s success in this region.
3. Willing to be different:  PrimeStaff has been able to demonstrate that they are agile and adaptable, willing to adjust to suit the needs of the clients.  This proves that they are truly engaged with their client and sees themselves very much a part of the client’s team rather than just a 3^rd party with no key stakeholder interest.  This is so rare in any typical vendor who sees themselves as purely a transactional relationship.  PrimeStaff in this respect is GENUINE.  It is nice to know that you are working with someone you can fully trust because you know they have your interest at heart and not just advising for the sake of closing a deal.  One classic example:  they were willing to work on a rather unconventional outsourcing model which no other vendor was willing to give it a try.  It only worked because of no. 5.
4. Commitment, Commitment, Commitment:  I can state enough how committed the Deputy MD, their MD, Ronald, and the rest of the team members are.  Despite the challenges and the push back they receive from some of our internal employees, they have never wasted their energy on a witch hunt or to defend themselves.  Their typical response is to stay focused on delivering the results despite the adversities.  This attitude has won over many critics over time.  They did it with sincerity and utmost focus on delivering quality services.
5. Openness, sincerity, transparency, high ethical standards, resilient.  These are all common feedback I have received from both my team as well as the other hiring managers from my company.  These set them apart easily from the other vendors.  They are also highly responsive and engaging making them highly effective even though they are located off site. ”

SURPASSED EXPECTATIONS, OUTSTANDING CONSULTANTS

“It is my pleasure writing in to commend two of your very outstanding Consultants. I have worked with PrimeStaff for a short span only and both individuals have surpassed my expectations! They exhibit drive, resourcefulness, are determined, yet not pushy. Both consultants are highly responsive and customer focused in understanding our role requirements succinctly. My internal key stakeholders have highlighted to me that they have been receiving high calibre CVs lately. The consultants’ resilience to work on highly specialised and niche roles also impresses me. It speaks volumes of the individuals, as well as, PrimeStaff’s commitments towards a holistic recruitment approach rather than focusing on quick-wins only which is obviously inherent in some other competing firms. It is indeed a win-win situation for us to collaborate with dedicated partners like PrimeStaff in achieving our recruitment goals.

Well done, PrimeStaff! Many thanks for your tireless efforts and looking forward to celebrate more successes with you!”

PASSIONATE CONSULTANTS, QUALITY SERVICE

“We contracted the services of PrimeStaff to assist in looking for a regional sales manager for the Southeast Asia Pacific market and within days, they provided the CVs of some very impressive candidates for our selection. Besides the usual services like following up after each interview and verifying certain information required, one could sense the passion of the consultants.

They added a personal element by being really keen in ensuring a good fit between the candidate and our organization through various conversations between both parties. Even after we have hired the sales manager, the consultant took time out to meet up with the candidate and myself to follow-up.

Once again, thank you for all the services rendered and I wish PrimeStaff much success with such wonderful staff in your team.“

MEETS RECRUITMENT TARGET, PROFESSIONAL CONSULTANTS

“It is my pleasure to have all 3 good staff serving our company. Due to our hectic and rush recruitment drive, the consultants at PrimeStaff did help me a lot during that period; giving me suitable candidates and helping me to close my recruitment target.

Without them, I would have not closed my target close to 30. I am very glad to have come across excellent and professional consultants.

I am looking forward to a great working relationship with them.“
