Scott Hutchinson
Managing Director
Emu Design
Emu Design has been working with Exclaim IT since 2006. One of Queensland's leading Website Design and Technology firms, on a strong growth trajectory, Emu Design is constantly seeking quality IT staff to grow their business. Emu have used a host of different recruitment firms to source staff prior to building a relationship with Exclaim IT.
"I was initially attracted to Exclaim IT by Managing Director, Paul Dunn, who convinced me that Exclaim IT's approach to recruitment was different to that of other firms."
"Exclaim IT was able to provide the exact type of people that we were looking for. They spent time getting to know our business, and thinking about our requirements, rather than just trying to sell us staff for a commission."
Emu Design has placed more than 10 permanent IT staff in their business using Exclaim IT. Many are still retained by the business up to two years later.
"Exclaim IT utilise their skills to give me the right people. They don't waste my time. They know the people in the market, so they are able to give me good qualified information about a person prior to meeting them. "
Exclaim IT's offers market-competitive recruitment services for the placement of both contract and permanent IT staff. But the real saving comes in the efficiency of the Exclaim IT team and the integrity of their approach to recruitment.
"The fact that we have an established relationship and that they know our business, saves me time, because I know I only have to interview one or two people for the job," said Scott. At a time when the market is resource-sparse they can still find me the right people"
And its not just recruitment that Exclaim do well. Emu Design have been impressed by Exclaim's after sales service, as well. Exclaim IT prides itself on actively managing its clients and candidates to ensure that placement is appropriate, and both clients and candidates are satisfied.
"We were impressed to see that they actually stick by us, they follow up with their people, they follow up with me, and they actively manage the relationships in the process. They play an integral role in helping us to retain staff in an appropriate way"
And when Emu Design has no active requirement for staff, they will continue to approach but only with specifically good candidates.
"We have actually taken people that Exclaim IT has brought to us, saying "This guy is good, and they have been excellent additions to our business. We are pleased to have found Exclaim IT, and work solely with them for our IT Recruitment."
