HRO Today Magazine names Futurestep as a top RPO provider and global leader

Futurestep, a Korn/Ferry Company, today announced that it has been named as part of the Bakerís Dozen, a ranking by HRO Today magazine of the top 13 recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) providers from a field of 45 major companies in the industry. The much-anticipated annual listing recognizes the top full-service RPO firms in North America based on a comprehensive global survey. Inclusion in the list is a key indicator of leadership in a rapidly growing and evolving RPO industry.

To identify top providers, HRO Today surveyed customers of more than 260 Human Resources executives who are current buyers of RPO services. The magazine ranked providers in three categories: breadth of service, program size and quality of service. Futurestep achieved consistently high rankings across all categories and also achieved recognition for its truly global RPO footprint. As a result, the publication also named Futurestep in its ìGlobal Leadersî list, a ranking developed from the same study.

ìFuturestepís inclusion in the Bakerís Dozen is a direct result of our comprehensive Strategic RPO offering and our commitment to high quality of service,î said Futurestep Chief Executive Officer Robert McNabb. ìWhile the scoring margins that separate the providers within the Bakerís Dozen are small, the impact that we have as leaders in the rapidly emerging RPO industry is great.
