Randstad was founded in the Netherlands during the 1960s. Presently, they have expanded operations to 39 markets, with branches in four countries.

We think that their long-standing success is a testament to how well they handle their clients, both employers and job applicants alike.

Their staff take the time to understand each applicant’s background and preferences, always discussing various opportunities that come up. We’ve gathered that they’re always spot on in shortlisting jobs for active searchers.

We like that they also ensure to get in-depth knowledge of the company that’s looking for people to hire. 

We think they take genuine interest in people and do not hesitate at all to find a good match for both parties, demonstrating their impeccable work ethics.

Their staff are always ready to assist with admin matters whenever doubt arises, and they do keep up with notifying applicants and recruiters on important matters.

However, because of the bulk of requests they get, they can be dragging in terms of responsiveness.

And for incoming contractors, it would be a good practice to keep track of all records for yourself, since there have been minor complaints about their system recently.

Manpower is a global workforce solutions company that does sourcing, assessing, developing, and managing talent. Over the years, they’ve garnered multiple awards as a recruitment company.

Manpower Singapore specialises in sales and marketing, HR and admin, customer service and hospitality, accounting and finance, and information and communications technology.

Much of their staff have received substantial feedback individually, and as a company, they’re an esteemed group in the industry.

For recruiters, we like that they hire, train, and retain the best talent that they have on board, making it easier for clients to choose the candidate that’s fit for them.

The recruitment process they currently have in place saves a lot of time for both the job seeker and the employer, and we’ve heard testimonies on this from their longstanding clients.

What we like most about Manpower is how they are able to provide tailored services. As a client, you have the option to completely delegate recruitment projects onto them, or just certain aspects of it.

It gives you the option to choose whether you want them to do the advertising and sourcing, or just the screening and interviewing. 

Their process is flexible, and we believe it’s a privilege for business owners that don’t want the hassle of looking out for possible candidates. 

Michael Page is another recruitment company that has established offices internationally. They provide specialised services at the middle management to leadership levels along with highly technical positions as well.

In Singapore, they specialise in multiple industries, from banking and financial services up to healthcare and engineering.

Much can be said about this company, but what we really find great about them is how their recruitment agents are adept at their respective industries.

We’ve heard a lot about how they’re able to find a good match for job seekers and recruiters alike.

They’re generally very responsive and professional without being too stingy about the job. And for people out there looking for a position, we definitely suggest checking out Michael Page’s services.

Even after an unsuccessful hire, their recruitment agents always manage to send a feedback to the applicants – something that a lot of recruiters neglect. 

We find it very helpful as it allows the individual to know why and where they were lacking during the application process.

However, we also did find that they have a mix of good and bad agents, which is unfortunately normal for such a big company. 

But either way, we still believe they’re worth a try if you’re looking for people to hire, or looking to get hired.

JAC Recruitment is an international recruitment consultancy that specialises in connecting high-level talent with companies that need them. They serve both Asia and Europe.

They also specialise in various industries, from accounting and finance to top level management and consultancy.

With their international database of candidates, we do think that they have a high chance of finding someone fit for your business.

As for job seekers, they’re also very hospitable. What we like about them in this aspect is that they always keep it professional while also being cordial.

We’ve heard that they always provide applicants with a detailed guide to prepare for interviews, even joining them in test calls to make sure their cameras and audio are working properly prior to the actual interview.

Overall, their recruitment agents are highly supportive and communicative throughout the entire process. We think this is what makes JAC Recruitment a reliable talent solutions agency, along with its experience in filling high-calibre positions.

Trust Recruit provides personalised workforce solutions for their corporate clients, from multinational corporations to the public sector, and even small and medium enterprises.

Like most recruitment agencies, they also specialize in a number of industries. However, we think that what sets them apart is their understanding of niche fields where it can be challenging to find candidates or find a job for.

We’ve heard a great deal about their take on this aspect, and we’re glad to say that they always manage to find a candidate with the correct skill and working attitude for particular employers.

For job seekers, a lot have testified to their recruitment agents’ dedication to the whole process. We’ve also observed that they’re very engaging and dependable – important traits when dealing with human resoruces.

We like how meticulous they are when it comes to screening through potential candidates before sending recommendations to employers. This saves time for a lot of companies and makes it hassle-free.

Although they’re relatively new compared to other well-established recruitment agencies in Singapore, we think their work ethics and professionalism will help both job seekers and employers.

All in all, they’re very timely with reports and are very professional. We definitely suggest checking them out if you’re looking for a recruitment agency in Singapore.
