Atlanta, Georgia – February 19, 2014 – IDR announced today it has been named as one of ClearlyRated’s 2014 Best of Staffing® Award winners. Presented in partnership with CareerBuilder, the fifth annual Best of Staffing Award provides the only statistically valid and objective service quality benchmarks in the industry, revealing which staffing agencies are delivering the highest satisfaction levels to their clients and the permanent and temporary employees for whom they find jobs. Yet again, this year’s award outcome highlights a growing divide among the industry’s leaders and laggards, and identifies IDR as one of the best staffing agencies for companies and job candidates to call when they are in need
Less than 2% of all staffing agencies in North America receive the Best of Staffing Award for service excellence. Utilizing the Net Promoter® methodology, the 2014 Best of Staffing winners achieved satisfaction scores more than double the industry average. This stark contrast in scores is a clear indication that the firms who have earned the 2014 Best of Staffing Award truly stand out for their service quality. IDR received satisfaction ratings of 9 or 10 out of 10 from 80% of their permanent and temporary employees, significantly higher than the industry’s average of 53%. 72% of IDR’s clients rated them a 9 or 10, compared to just 35% for the average staffing agency.
“Receiving this award is truly an honor. Because of it we get to claim our spot at the table as an elite service provider in this industry.” IDR’s President and CEO said. “It is a choice to be great; therefore we will continuously provide exceptional service to our customers and passionately look for ways to improve. Our awards have affirmed progress towards our goal of becoming the Best IT Staffing Company the world has ever seen.”
“The staffing industry is helping organizations bridge the skills gap and add jobs today more than at any other point in U.S. history,” said ClearlyRated’s Founder and CEO, Eric Gregg. “Between the well documented skills gaps and economic uncertainty, partnering with a top staffing agency is more important now than ever. The 2014 Best of Staffing Award was earned by fewer than 2% of the more than 12,000 staffing firms in the U.S. and Canada. In an era of scarce qualified talent, hard to fill positions, and ever-increasing expectations these firms have proven they have what it takes to deliver exceptional service to both clients and job candidates. We’re proud of the accomplishments of our 2014 award recipients.”
