Testimonials

What strikes me upfront about PSS – R&B is the sheer sense of professionalism that has been embodied in their culture. It is visible right from your first interaction with the firm. The way they handle each requirement, gives you a sense of their rich experience, professionalism and client centricity. It has been truly a great experience working with them.

PSS-R&B has a rich legacy of delivery and a global scale that few other firms can match. Their reach allows clients to execute global requirements with ease, creating an atmosphere of confidence and trust.

In this era of globalization, few firms can match your talent acquisition needs. I am happy to say that PSS- R&B is at the forefront of them all!

In my over 25 years of a meaningful Professional relationship with Personnel Search Services and Ray & Berndtson, I have found them to be a firm that is extremely results driven, client-centric and long-term relationship oriented. There is a genuine desire to understand client specific needs, culture, style of working and desired outcomes and in their shortlisting of prospective candidates a high degree of filtration is applied at their end itself. This ensures a far better utilsation of Client time, quality of effort and speed of execution. I have found Mr Mario Lobo and his team to be of unimpeachable integrity, strong work ethic and a genuine passion for Client success. There have been occasions when were about to close on a prospective candidate, but PSS has come back and dissuaded us from doing so, due to some adverse information during background checks! Similarly, several instances have reinforced my confidence in them as a team and has created a bond that goes beyond a mere Professional engagement. I have found Mario’s views on the Industry, hiring practices and the buoyancy in specific sectors as a good bell weather of the Indian Economy!

My overall experience of PSS-R&B has been excellent. Speed of delivery, meticulous research, involvement and the ability to effectively counsel, negotiate and close have been what I have experienced of them. Through this, PSS helped me close the President of Sales in my previous organisation, a critical position which was open for a long time until PSS handled it and brought it to a close.

An over 35 years of legacy as India’s first Executive Search firm based on a strong set of values, a professional approach combined with an entrepreneurial mindset has made the difference.

PSS-R&B are trust worthy and dependable partners from whom one gets assured results and who present only those candidates who are likely to make a big positive difference to the business.

We recently had to fill Senior Executive positions (COO and Vice President) for USV and the first name I thought of was Mario and PSS because of their connection with the industry, service orientation and ability to understand the Client’s requirement. Mario and the team spends time to understand what exactly would be a right fit and PSS  makes the Client think of new ways of looking and assessing talent. I am happy to say that the new hires we have done through PSS have been yielded the desired results to USV. I thank Mario and his team for their services and look forward to working with them in the future too.

PSS has helped us close several positions. They are quick to respond (between sharing the job description and sharing relevant profiles) and immediately provide a list of suited candidates. PSS is aggressive in finding the right candidate and in closing the position quickly. Moreover, the do not rely solely on database driven selection services.

We have been working with PSS – mostly for our Senior and Top management positions – for quite some time now. I must say that Executive Search is such a competitive space and standing out is not easy – but PSS manages to do so.  If I have to list few areas that give me comfort to reach out to PSS is the excellent retention of its top handful search specialists and consultants. For years many of us have been dealing with them and found the same warmth, touch and focus. Additionally, the spread and breadth of PSS, be it geography or talent nuances, you mostly get what you want from their stable and trusted partnership.

The deep knowledge and information that the consultants of PSS have in their domains is impressive and enables them to close niche and difficult searches.

The understanding of my needs and customized support that PSS Consultants have extended every time is truly appreciated. It saves so much of my time and energy. For eg: I was looking out for a C&B Head for my company and within 1 hour of my meeting, my PSS Consultant could understand my needs and also the cultural and behavioral attributes I was looking for. This resulted in a quick and quality closure of the position.

PSS maintains a constant connect with their Client which is great.  I have worked with them in my previous organisation and choose to continue working with them in my new organisation as well.

For the last 8 – 9 years PSS has been associated with me through my present organisation Naprod and through my earlier companies like Lafarge, Damac Properties Dubai & TUV India. I would say it’s been a great journey together, as the PSS team specially comes across as thorough professionals with functional expertise. Their diversified reach in terms of industries is I believe one of the important elements of their services.

I strongly believe that what differentiates PSS from other Executive Search firms is their “PEOPLE”. The required expertise, professional skills, relationship building and transparency can be seen together in one team. It has been wonderful experience to interact with them.

If you are looking for a Real Business Partner and not just a Recruitment Consultant then get connected with PSS.

The diligence, perseverance and patience throughout the process must be commended along with the understanding of the Client’s requirements and quality of execution. We appreciate that PSS goes the extra mile irrespective of the levels of hiring and look forward to many such partnerships in the future.

We have been associated with PSS since 2009 and it has been a pleasant experience throughout these years. Many senior positions were filled up during this period and Team PSS exhibits a lot of character, maturity and commitment.
