Case Study: London Recruitment Agency Staffing Support
Challenge
A mid-sized technology recruitment agency in Old Street lost three senior consultants within a month to competitors. With a crucial Q3 pipeline of vacancies to fill for major clients, the remaining team was overwhelmed, risking client relationships and revenue.
Our Solution
recruitment-agency.london was contacted on a Tuesday morning. We presented a two-pronged solution: 1) Two experienced temporary tech recruitment consultants from our pool started on-site by Thursday to manage the immediate live roles. 2) We initiated a search for permanent replacements, leveraging our network to present four pre-screened candidates within five working days.
Result
The temporary consultants seamlessly integrated, maintaining candidate and client communication, and even placed two candidates in the first week. One of the temporary workers was subsequently offered a permanent position by the client, which we facilitated through our temp-to-perm scheme. The client agency retained all its key accounts and hit its quarterly targets.
"recruitment-agency.london didn't just send CVs; they provided a complete staffing solution during a crisis. Their temporary consultants were of such high calibre that we ended up hiring one permanently. They understood our niche and our urgency."
