Quest unlocks talent vault

Switzerland is a technology hotbed with a well established and fast expanding Technology and Telecoms industry.

By contrast, the recruitment sector is highly regulated with a limited number of international agencies equipped to operate in this market. Only a small proportion of these are technology specialists, fewer still are equipped to provide Pan European resources to meet the needs of both national and cross border activity.

ìSwitzerland has a great technical heritage, but as the market and our business grows, we require specialist support and often need to source high calibre candidates from outside of Switzerlandî Says Andreas Fehlmann, Commercial Director at Gateway Communications a leading provider of telecoms services to African markets.

Fehlmann continues ìThrough Questís Swiss Branch and their pan European expertise, Quest is well placed to meet the demands of a market leading international telecoms provider such as ourselves, with the ability to effectively service our operations in Switzerland as well as our locations across Europe.

ìWe identified the Swiss market as holding tremendous potential, but it was out of reach until now.î says Jean-Philippe Reynard Country Director ìThe opening of our new Swiss office in The World Trade Centre in Zurich, allows us to provide a truly pan European proposition and service offering. It is a logical step which complements our strategy of supporting leading organisations in expanding international marketsî

Reynard continues ìWhile the Zurich office will focus its attention on the Swiss, German and Austrian markets, our UK operations will continue to provide outstanding search and selection services to new and existing clients across Europe.
