I like working with Xentys because they offer candidates who fit the requested profile well. They put effort into pre-selection. In principle, this is something you can expect from a recruitment agency, but which has certainly not been taken for granted by other agencies. Maarten, like no other, is able to give you the feeling that he will do absolutely everything to deliver the right candidate. And then he delivers.
Currently, Xentys has placed two senior interim managers with Van Lent. Both gentlemen are doing very well and working to their full satisfaction. In short, an agency and approach that inspires confidence.
