HHGP Hudson Highland Grp., Inc. (MM)

Hudson (Nasdaq:HHGP) has been named to Inavero's inaugural Best of Staffing™ list. Presented in partnership with CareerBuilder and based on the Net Promoter scoring model (NPS), Best of Staffing is the nation's only client satisfaction award that recognizes exceptional client service in the staffing and recruiting industry.

"We are honored to be recognized on Inavero's 2010 list of best staffing firms," said Stephan Carter, president and CEO of Hudson North America. "Most companies say they deliver great service. This objective, third-party study helps validate that we truly deliver on that promise. Clients consistently tell us they appreciate the way we partner to achieve their desired business outcomes."

Staffing agencies competing to make the Best of Staffing list underwent a rigorous client survey process followed by careful analysis of responses to determine satisfaction levels.  Nearly 75 percent of clients who use the winning firms rate their willingness to recommend that firm a 9 or 10 out of 10; the industry benchmark is 55 percent. Additionally, Best of Staffing winners achieved a 69 percent NPS, compared with a 41 percent NPS industry benchmark.

"This is a time when clients of staffing firms can and should demand excellence from their recruiting partners," Eric Gregg, managing partner of Inavero said. "The $61 billion staffing and recruiting industry currently puts more than 2.5 million people to work daily and has become a fundamental component of overall U.S. employment. Inavero's Best of Staffing program presents an opportunity for firms to differentiate themselves from the rest of the industry, recognizes excellence, and also provides invaluable information about how to continue to meet and exceed client expectations."
