Quest Search & Selection has been specialising in the consumer sector for over 17 years. During this time they have built up an enviable client list and an extensive network of high calibre candidates. Quest recruits across a wide range of disciplines including national account management, field sales, sales management, category management, insights, customer and trade marketing, brand management, procurement, supply chain and technical roles.
Clients who work with Quest receive a highly professional service which is aimed at taking the hard work out of finding the best talent for their business.
Quest Director Chris McWade explains: "We work in partnership with our clients in order to really understand business needs and put together tailored solutions in order to find the best possible candidates.
"Quest takes care of the hard work by utilising a broad network and proactively searching the marketplace to find the right candidates, quickly. All of Quest's consultants work as account managers which means we are able to build up long-lasting and valuable relationships with all of our customers.
"Feedback from our clients tells us that we are outperforming many of our com-petitors when it comes to providing the best candidates with the highest levels of service."
BUILDING CAREERS
Candidates who register with Quest can expect to work with a team of highly professional and knowledgeable consultants who will listen to what they are looking for in their next career move. They have an extensive client list and are able to quickly get candidate's CVs in front of the right decision makers.
McWade adds: "As an impressive 90% of our vacancies come from repeat busi-ness, we are able to provide candidates with valuable insight into our client's cultures and working environments.
"We are also available to provide advice on CVs, interview preparation and salary guidance.
"In short, Quest looks to make job searching as painless as possible. Even if you are not ready for a move at the moment but you would be interested in finding out more about the current job market, or if you would like to make a contact who can keep you informed of relevant opportunities in the future, the consultants at Quest would be happy to hear from you."
PROACTIVE SEARCHING
Quest invests heavily in advertising and therefore they have extensive market coverage. This means that the company receives a large number of applications per vacancy (anywhere from 20-50 on average).
McWade explains: "Candidates who demonstrate good progression on their CV as well as tangible achievements typically stand out from the crowd. We also recognise that many of the best people on the market are not actively applying to jobs so we also proactively search out the best candidates via networking and head hunting for every vacancy.
"Technology has changed the way in which people search for jobs and Quest utilises all relevant media to source candidates, including Linkedin, Twitter and Facebook. We are also launching a new website at the end of September which will further simplify the job search process for our candidate base."
