Testimonial for Langley Search &
Selection
In early 2010 the Non-Inventory Buying Team at 3663 was asked to support a complex, business critical
project with some degree of urgency. The team at the time were running at full capacity and could not provide the level of resource required to take on this
task.
We decided we needed to support the team by bringing in external interim resource expertise. Given the nature and
timescales of the project this was still a major challenge.
Langley Search & Selection were approached on the off chance
that they may be able to help. Langley took the time to really understand the specific context of our assignment, the outcomes we needed to achieve and the
competencies a successful candidate should have.
Langley came back within the day with an available candidate that was a
perfect match for us. An interview was quickly arranged and the candidate started the following week.
Did we just get lucky?
we don’t think so!
Our contact at Langley had personally vetted the candidates using a robust interview process and
this was demonstrated by the great cultural fit and the success of the individual when working within our business.
Since this
task we have used Langley for other initiatives. They have continued to put forward quality candidates that fit both the cultural and project brief. It is the time
Langley have taken to understand our needs and their approach to recruitment that sets them apart from their industry
peers.

I have known Langley Search & Selection for over 8 years. Unlike other recruitment consultancies, the team take the time to understand their candidates needs. They also don't try to 'persuade' you to consider roles that really are not suitable for, unlike many of their competition. Whilst I was considering my last career move, one of their consultants offered objective, considered and balanced advice on the options I had. This included roles that Langley was not recruiting for. As a specialist procurement recruiter, I would recommend Langley Search & Selection as leaders in the field. |
