Following on from nomination in four out of five applicable categories in this year’s Jobsite Recruit Rank Awards; Leeds based online recruitment experts Blue Octopus have scooped the highly coveted accolades of “Best Recruiter” and “Best Candidate Communication” in the High Volume Jobsite User category.
Now in their sixth year, the Recruit Rank Awards are amongst the most prestigious commendations in the recruitment calendar as they are awarded in accordance with the feedback of actual candidates who have used the recruiter’s services over the course of the year.
In 2010 Blue Octopus took home the award for “Most Improved” in the Low Volume Jobsite User category and Blue Octopus Director Chris Coleman notes that given the relatively short history of the company this escalation in stature is as worthy of recognition as the awards received:
Looking back to when we first started, it’s truly amazing the journey we’ve had here at Blue Octopus. To be nominated in our first year and to win was fantastic but to win two this year and be within the High Volume category really is an unbelievable achievement for our business. To be crowned Best Recruiter – High Volume is phenomenal, especially when 12 months ago we were celebrating the Most Improved Award – Low Volume so this just puts it into perspective how much we’ve really grown within an extremely competitive industry and how it’s so important to listen to candidates demands for exceptional customer service.
We are extremely proud of our team and know that they work very hard to provide the best customer service to all candidates and they fully deserve to win such prestigious awards from Jobsite. We’d like to thank our candidates first of all for nominating Blue Octopus and promise to build on these high standards to make sure we continue to improve our service for many years to come!
The 2011 awards were presented at a lavish event held on November 15th at stylish London venue Grace and represented both a milestone and an opportunity for Blue Octopus to reflect on a year which has seen rapid growth and consistent development within the industry.
