Philip Dries, Director of Operations Schuberg Philis
"I fear that I may be Logical People's fussiest client. Our demands for top notch Engineers are extremely high and are therefore very, very critical. This is why I believe in a real partnership with your recruiter who has a genuine interest in your company. This ensures both a successful and effective working relationship in the long term. And the long term is what counts. Considering my continuing need for new colleagues I have tried many times to establish a similar relationship with other recruiters, but have come to the enlightening conclusion that Arnout is simply the best. An opportune moment to thank him for his endless commitment to both us and to the candidates! I trust we will be working together for many years to come."
Jaldert Dirksen, Functioneel Beheerder
"In my experience as a job seeker, recruiters have often proven to be difficult people. They promise all kinds of things but you never have the feeling they are sincere.
Arnout Koning is the first recruiter I really trusted and he gave me a lot of assurance. I also got the impression he thought it was important I find a good and fun job and he motivated me a lot before and after my interviews.
In the end, I did not accept the job Arnout had found for me. It was quite difficult for me to inform him about my decision, because I felt bad for him (and it was me looking for a job!).
Arnout did everything possible to ensure I took the correct decision, but the final choice was mine. My decision for my new job was based on personal reasons, not on career opportunity.
Arnout: thanks for everything!"
Wilder Rodrigues, Senior Java Developer TomTom
"I have personally experienced Logical People as the best IT recruitment agency in the Netherlands, especially if you currently live outside the Netherlands and want to live and work here. They have the most interesting IT jobs and make a real effort in helping you settle in the Netherlands (assist in applying for a work permit, explanation of the Dutch tax system, advice on how to find housing etc. etc.)."
Maaike van Dijk, Manager Human Resources ArvinMeritor
"I came in contact with Logical People when I started working for ArvinMeritor in May 2004. At one point we had an open position related to UNIX. After using lots of other recruitment resources; such as placing advertisements in magazines / newspapers and on the internet and even some recruitment agencies, I learned that this position was very hard to fill. At that point we asked Logical People to help us fill this position. Within two weeks we had received some resumes from very suitable candidates via Logical People and we started interviewing. Soon after we hired a candidate and since then we have a very good working relationship with is efficient and transparent. We always inform Logical People when we have open positions related to their expertise."
Christiaan ter Haar, Managing Consultant m.a.partners
"My experience with Logical People has been extremely positive. Arnie contacted me and was able to explain and present m.a.partners in an excellent way. Clearly Logical People puts effort in knowing the candidate, the company, its culture and the specifics of the job itself. For me this resulted in a good match with my current employer.
The informal way in which Logical People operates creates a good, longlasting relationship and the trust our company has in Logical People is a good evidence of the quality of service Logical People delivers."
Harry van Lienden, HR Business Partner Canon Nederland N.V.
"In a growing and demanding market Canon Nederland N.V. is always looking for highly qualified employees. Finding the right candidate is not an easy task because Canon are highly selective. During our quest in finding the right candidates we came into contact with Logical People a few years ago. The partnership with Logical People, especially with Fred Bos,has turned out to be a great success. Fred is continually looking for the right people for our company and has been able to introduce excellent candidates over the past few years which has resulted in many happy new employees. This makes Logical People a very reliable partner in our continued search for the right candidate!"
Olivier van Tongeren, Recruiter Tommy Hilfiger
"In our experience Logical People has proved to Tommy Hilfiger to be able to find qualified staff in a relatively short time. My contact at LP understands the organization and the type of people we are looking for. Communication between TH and LP has always been good, to the point, and productive. We had some difficult positions to recruit for and Logical People has been able to find the people we were looking for. Our overall impression of LP is positive and we will continue to work with LP in the near future."
Gre de Joode, HR Manager RDC
"Since several months Logical People has been suporting us with our recruitment process. According to us, Logical People's strength lies in the direct lines of contact and honest communication. We inform Logical People of our expectations and criteria which Logical People uses as a base for finding suitable candidates. A selective search where only candidates meeting our criteria are presented. My contact person is always available and also informs us if a position is difficult to fill."
m.a.partners
"In May 2004 we opened our Amsterdam office, and soon engaged the services of Logical People to help us build our consulting base in the Netherlands. From working with Logical People over the past 2 years, we have found them to be extremely professional and dedicated to our needs as a client. They have taken the time to really understand our business, get to know our people, and as such have been fundamental in our growth and presence within the local market place. We look forward to working with them more closely over the coming years."
Theuns Reyneke, Regional Manager MIH Entriq BV
"Since we commenced our relationship with LP back in 2004 we have experienced only efficient and professional service from LP. With all our vacancies LP has succeeded to provide candidates that proved to be tailor-made to our expectations. At this point in our relationship with LP we have extended their role to even negotiating contracts with candidates. We find their service to be trustworthy and of a high standard, and we very much plan to continue utilizing them for our recruitment needs"
Karen Marion, IT Manager Priority Telecom
"Logical People take the time to understand the role and type of candidate we are seeking - and they know our company culture. So, in addition to screening candidates for us, they do a great job of presenting our company to the candidates. This is a vastly different experience than with other recruiters who stop screening after making a database/key word match. The approach used by Logical People saves us considerable time and effort in the hiring process and we get good, qualified candidates."
Colin Barham, employee Tommy Hilfiger
"I have found Logical People to be excellent recruitment consultants. On receipt of my CV they had lined up an interview within a few days. They met me beforehand to brief me on what to expect at the interview and kept me fully informed at every step of the process. I have no hesitation in recommending using Logical People if you are looking for a new job."
Ira Schoots, Java Developer Triodos Bank
"At Logical People I've been mediated in a personal way. Clearly the search for a good match, for the candidate as well for the employer, is done not only on the basis of technical knowledge, but also at a personal level. And this resulted in a job where I've been working for almost 5 years with great pleasure. And if I decided to look for another job, I'll most certainly ask Logical People to help me out again."
Natalie Schoon, Management Consultant in Risk and Finance
"Although I have now moved on from the position Logical People recruited me for, I will always recommend them both as a job seeker as well as a recruiter. I particularly value their efficient way of working and personal involvement. They know their business and their clients' business inside out and have the ability to understand the requirements of both recruiter and job seeker. I have no hesitation in recommending their services."
Arnold Ruijter, employee Tommy Hilfiger
"Arnout Koning from Logical People contacted me after finding my CV on the Internet. He invited me for a meeting to discuss my possibilities with a job opening he had.
After talking to him I felt more confident about changing jobs, because he pointed out my possibilities which I never knew before. He arranged a meeting with Tommy Hilfiger, the company I am working for now. While talking with them, I noticed how they are helped by Logical People because they told me the same things Arnout did before. This made me even more confident.
Eventually I was hired by Tommy Hilfiger and the very first day on the job, Arnout from Logical People came over with cake to celebrate my contract with Tommy Hilfiger. 5 months later, I still enjoy working here and I have come to understood the feeling is mutual, because Tommy Hilfiger has offered me a permanent contract. In time I found out that I am not the only Tommy Hilfiger employee who was found by Logical People.
My hat goes off for Logical People, because it cannot be easy finding the perfect match!"
Edwin van der Wal, employee Blackboard
"Logical People spends time to get to truly know both your profile and your personality, and are able to match you to opportunities in roles you hadn't thought of yourself. They look beyond the resume and beyond the job description; they look at the person and the company, at current requirements, the industry trends of their clients, and your future ambition.
Logical People thinks outside of the box to create success. I have full confidence going into and staying in a relationship with Logical People and during the last 4 years we have kept in touch. They are not your average CV matching service and you will never be introduced for any position other than the PERFECT NEXT STEP in your career."
Youssef Bentohami, consultant Logical People
"I have been working as a consultant for Logical People since September 2005 at Telecom Utrecht. First contact between myself and Logical People was very pleasant, a mix of business with a personal approach. Clear agreements were made immediately about things that matter to me, such as salary, travel expenses and the kind of contract offered to me.
In my opinion, Logical People is very flexible and easily approachable. I also have no complaints about salary payment, which has been different is previous positions.
In a nutshell, it is a pleasure working for Logical People."
