I worked with Ben and Hunter Farmer when I was building the EMEA Sales team in at Nimble. Ben made the investment and took the time to understand what I needed in the areas of skill, motivation, history of success and cultural fit. Ben placed several “A” players and earned my endorsement as a trusted business partner. Trust, Strong Communication and Speed are a few words that come to mind in recommending Ben
Ben is a top recruiter who is focused on the task in hand and delivers on his committments. He is well connected and uses his network well.
Ben and Hunter Farmer are one of those rare 'players' in the world of technology recruitment whose talk is very much backed up by his walk. Not only is Ben a phenomenal sales recruiter he has exceptional inside Industry knowledge. Having now worked with Ben, I can vouch for his commitment to excellence and his drive to add value to his client’s needs.
Ben has been instrumental in designing a training programme for all the NetApp interns which led to NetApp winning the Best Placement Employer Prize 2013 awarded by Brunel Business School. During my interactions with Ben, he has always been accommodating and enthusiastic in any new projects that we undertake. Ben has been a supportive colleague and always open to new ideas and new ways of working. He has been a pleasure a work with.
Upon his leave at NetApp I sincerely thanked him for everything he taught and showed me over the past 9 months. Of course I keep ex-colleagues and leaders close to my heart, but Ben; having played the main part in my first “real job” experience, is extra special to me.
Ben recruited me to NetApp and I have to say that Ben showed a rare tenacity and professionalism throughout. What also differentiates Ben is that he invests personally into the process to ensure the best outcome for the candidate and the organization. Ben represents a great brand on behalf of the company and as such I would recommend him very highly.
The first candidate Ben presented to Rackspace, we offered. The second candidate Ben presented to Rackspace, we offered. Needless to say Ben McLaughlin is an individual who in my eyes is a quality recruiter. He adds value to my recruitment process in ways that other recruiters do not, he has a tough job as Rackspace operates a direct sourcing model but in light of this, he is committed, direct and always provides a strong service based on a two way business relationship that is honest and open. There are recruitment agents and then there are recruitment consultants. Ben is definitely the latter. The most successful recruiter Rackspace has worked with in 2008
They call me The Hunter. But I don’t concern myself with futile matters such as labels and names.
As The Farmer of this narrative, I oversee our vast landscape. What a story we share together.
Raised in the recession to connect tech minds with positions in which they thrive, Hunter Farmer pioneers an agile and direct approach to talent services.
Then there was the recession. As London panicked, Hunter Farmer formed. Many shut their windows against the rain, but we stood firm, spearheading an agile approach that stands us armed to the teeth. Comprised of reasonable fellows, our boutique ensemble class passion and honesty as prerequisite. Born in such uncertain times. Resolute to the end.
Companies must battle through difficult times and being armed to the teeth means both preparing your recruitment set up and hiring the right talent. Retain our reasonable fellows onsite, and take complete control of your recruitment demands. After partnering with you, we sell your story and vision to ensure the right people help you succeed.
We understand what work is. The honest preparation that goes into providing our people with an opportunity requires patience and perseverance. This is what obsession and passion looks like and why we lead the pack. Coupled with our hunter’s spearheaded approach is our farmer’s care for our land and people. The stage is set. Step up and challenge.
The right people depend upon the right conditions to make something of themselves. Nothing is handed to you on a plate and nothing is easy. It takes guts to make it. Our candidates can expect a bright future if they strive, safe in the knowledge that we prepare every landscape in which we work, perfectly primed on the back of our hard work.
And what of this landscape? This is where we think for ourselves, carefully refining our unique methods. It’s where we prepare people for what’s to come. What is this if not a shared feast, a full table of food and drink at which we sit with the company of fine fellows and share the fruits of our labour? What a difference we make, brother.
Our farmland is more than a haven from London’s panic. Headhunting can be too clean-cut and we do more than hiring. This ‘shared feast’ is emblematic of how we speak often and honestly with candidates, engaged in their future. Our holistic array of services improve the stories of the talented individuals and the companies we serve.
When they ask why we never fail, as though there was a secret and easy one-word response that explained it, we smile and think of our honest journey. We recall the immense attention to detail it takes to find the right person for the right future; the patience to wait until the perfect moment; the lives we have improved, and the lives we will improve.
Our results speak for themselves: our companies thrive along with the futures of our candidates. The process by which we achieve this is a combination of qualities that, when combined, define Hunter Farmer: our unrivaled attention to detail, always genuine and honest, proud to be transparent, and unafraid to guarantee our candidates’ futures.
Certain truths are so simple they should be said without distraction. They should be placed on the table with the salt, the wine and between friends. These truths are the details of the bigger picture we call life, those which Hunter Farmer serve as part of our glorious feast, and they are the truths upon which our people live in this brave new world.
Can you taste what we’re saying? Truth stands for our dependable, honest and straightforward nature. Concerned with deeper matters, our holistic approach to recruitment gives those with whom we work the best chance of advancing in business. We’re always looking to build meaningful and permanent relationships that influence real change.
