TROY, MI--(Marketwire - Sep 26, 2011) - Kelly Services, Inc., (
"Kelly Services is very proud to be recognized for the exceptional service provided to our talent we have placed on assignment," said Debra Thorpe, senior vice president, Global Service for Kelly Services. "The recognition is especially significant given the current employment outlook and considering that less than one percent of staffing firms in the US and Canada were named to the list."
Staffing firms competing to make the Best of Staffing list underwent a rigorous survey process followed by careful analysis of responses to determine satisfaction levels. Kelly Services received satisfaction ratings of 9 or 10 out of 10 from 64 percent of their talent, significantly higher than the industry's average of 50 percent. Best of Staffing participants secured a place on the list by earning an average Net Promoter Score® that was nearly double the national staffing industry benchmark for talent who had been placed in a job.
According to recent Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data, staffing firms have created more new jobs since the end of the "Great Recession" than any other industry, accounting for 91 percent of the total job growth.
"There is still so much work to be done," said Eric Gregg, founder and chief executive officer, Inavero. "The most recent BLS report shows 14 million unemployed, nearly half whom have been out of work for six months or more. Job seekers are using staffing and recruiting firms now more than ever before, and it's our hope the Best of Staffing List will help guide them to the firms who have truly created an exceptional experience for the talent they are helping put back to work."
