Our Success Stories

This luxury brand sells at the highest end of the market, and prides itself on the quality of its goods, and customer service; when something goes wrong the consequences can be expensive and serious. The Christmas period is always a demanding time of year, but to be three down on headcount during these vital months could have catastrophic effects on company performance. However, we at People First MULTILINGUAL provided a range of suitable candidates and the three vacancies were successfully filled and crisis averted! Nearly 80% of their customer service advisors have now been supplied by People First MULTILINGUAL.
This candidate became a client! A leading brand in an exclusive field, this company was looking for a dynamic sales manager to champion growth and mould an effective sales team. After four months of searching they turned to us. Within 24 hours we had sent over the CV of a candidate who now leads their team! Although he had no experience within that particular industry, our in depth interview process had enabled us to highlight his suitability; a fact evidenced by his continued success in the role, and the company’s continued growth! Several months after starting the position this candidate became a client when he returned to us in search of additional staff; he knew that we would listen and respect his requests and we were subsequently able to meet his requirements. Success all round!
Based in deepest, darkest Berkshire, this US company set us the challenge of finding candidates with a wide range of European languages who live close to their offices. It's never easy to attract Parisians, Milanesi, etc., to positions outside London, especially to what were, initially, temporary roles. However, in 2006, People First MULTILINGUAL succeeded in filling these positions three times in 2006, with French, Spanish and Italian speakers!
