Aquent Makes Inavero's 2012 Best of Staffing™ Talent List

BOSTON, Feb. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Aquent announced Monday that it has been named to Inavero's 2012 Best of Staffing™ Talent list. Best of Staffing, presented in partnership with CareerBuilder, is the nation's first award that recognizes staffing firms that receive remarkable reviews from the people they find jobs (employed talent). Less than 1% of North American staffing firms have been named to the 2012 Best of Staffing Talent List.

"Less than 1% of staffing firms in the US and Canada have been named to the Best of Staffing List for Talent Satisfaction each year which makes this a big accomplishment," Aquent's President, Ann Webster said. "We are proud and honored to be recognized for our efforts in this way."

Staffing firms competing to make the Best of Staffing list underwent a rigorous survey process followed by careful analysis of responses to determine satisfaction levels. Aquent received a Net Promoter ScoreO rating of 56 percent, significantly higher than the industry's average of 28 percent. Best of Staffing participants secured a place on the list by earning an average NPS that was nearly double the national staffing industry benchmark for talent who had been placed in a job.

"The staffing industry continues to play a key role in helping to revitalize the economy," said Eric Gregg, Inavero's Founder and CEO.  "Staffing firms give growth-minded organizations a more flexible alternative to recruiting their own employees, letting both the employee and employer determine if the fit is right for a more permanent position.  Both sides receive tremendous value in a flexible, yet meaningful working relationship, and as they engage with staffing firms to help achieve those goals, the service experience they have is very important to their success. The Best of Staffing lists are a resource for businesses and talent who are trying to find staffing firms that provide exceptional service."
