Exceeding Potential-Recruitment in Corporate Clothing

Friday, January 29, 2010

Incorporatewear understands that appropriate, stylish, corporate clothing can not only reinforce a client’s brand image but also positively influence employee morale.

The greatest prize for both employer and employee is found, however, when the right people are in the right jobs. The cost of recruitment is high but replacement costs higher still: ensuring the correct fit in all senses is vital.

Incorporatewear takes this message to heart and, for its own recruitment needs, seeks independent and objective assessments of candidates’ abilities.

“Naturally we review our candidates’ CVs, interview them and discuss their achievements,” comments Chris Wood, a director of Incorporatewear, “but to complement these processes we believe a truly objective picture can only be achieved only through psychometric testing. We want to know whether potential employees really are in the right job and, importantly, if they have the potential to succeed.”

As a result Incorporatewear has, over the last year, been using the services of WorkLife Associates Ltd, based in Sutton Coldfield, in order to assess the abilities of its candidates.

“We find WorkLife responsive, efficient and willing to help,” continues Chris. “We really value their input and, in a year of exceptional success, they have helped us in the recruitment of some outstanding individuals to bolster our commercial operation.”

And WorkLife are similarly pleased with the relationship. “We’re delighted to help Incorporatewear find quality candidates,” enthuses Deborah Robson, a director of WorkLife . “We provide services to a wide range of local government and commercial clients and we’re very proud to be able to include Incorporatewear in our growing portfolio.”
