7. “The BLT team understands our
marketplace and our business
well.
‘
They have taken the time
to understand what
makes us different, and
work hard to find
consultants that have the
potential we are looking
for.
‘
“BLT have proved an
insightful, efficient and effective
recruitment partner over the last
10 years.
They took time to get to
know us and so provide us
with candidates who fit
our culture really well. ”
Alan Holroyd, i2a Consulting
‘
We aren’t a cookie-cutter
business, and BLT understands
that our culture is an output, not
an input. The consultants at BLT
are courteous and professional
and I certainly feel like a valued
client.
Alex Marshall, Director, CIL UK
“I suspect AMR was not an easy
client for BLT. We have quite
particular needs, and might have
come across as a bit difficult to
please.
Kate worked hard to
tease out exactly what it
was we needed, and the
candidates she then put
forward were spot on.
We hired a number of people as
a result and they are thriving.”
Anke Mueller, AMR International
“BLT has during the years been
of extreme help to our business.
From the beginning in 2002, we
have had a very good
relationship with BLT as they
understand our business very
well and are very efficient in
helping us with our recruitment
needs.
‘
Thus, we have benefitted
greatly from BLT’s very
active position and excellent
network among both
relatively new and more
experienced consultants.
Particularly during the last 3
months where we have scaled up
our recruitment efforts, BLT has
been second to none in helping us
filling several positions with top
class candidates.”
Claus Werner, Director, Ocean Strategy
