LOS ANGELES, June 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --Futurestep, part of Korn/Ferry International and the industry leader in recruitment services for global businesses, has been named a 'Star Performer 2012' within the Everest Group's annual 'RPO service provider landscape and capability assessment' report. It is one of just six providers to be given this title. It was also acclaimed as a major contender in recruitment process outsourcing (RPO).

The ranking was determined by Everest Group's comprehensive evaluation framework PEAK Matrix, which analyzed the Performance, Experience, Ability and Knowledge of Futurestep and more than 20 other established RPO service providers.

Futurestep's delivery footprint was identified as a particular area of strength, referencing the company's extensive service management center network which spans the globe through hubs in Houston, Shanghai, Bangalore, Warsaw, Auckland, Sydney, and Buenos Aires. The report also highlighted Futurestep's experience in multi-country RPO.

In 2011, Futurestep:

• Signed six new RPO deals, increasing its client base to 23
• Posted over 200 percent growth in the number of hires managed
• Posted approximately 35 percent FTE growth

Everest Group vice president and co-author of the report Rajesh Ranjan added: "Futurestep demonstrated strong advancements, both in terms of market success and delivery capability, to be recognized as a 'Star Performer.'
