The Randstad Technologies team will explore unique project outcome-based business models and project-based engagements with clients as part of its comprehensive service portfolio.

 

Randstad Technologies also aims to become a dominant partner for SMEs and start-ups in the country, leveraging its strong recruitment expertise across various IT roles, levels and platforms, with a primary focus on the ERP, Infrastructure, Application Development & Management and SMAC technologies.

At Randstad, our objective is to deliver tremendous value-add to our customers who are becoming increasingly demanding as they face new talent challenges, especially in sectors like IT. Our goal is not just to meet those demands, but to spearhead the industry in helping companies align their talent strategy to business objectives”, he added.
