Consentium Search is prepared to keep operations running at 100% even with the current COVID-19 outbreak.
As always, the safety of our staff, our clients, our business associates and the community in general is our top priority. Here are some of the steps we have taken to address the COVID-19 outbreak.
Effective Friday March 13, 2020, our corporate headquarters location was closed. However, we are still here for you. Being Risk Management, Occupational Safety and Human Resource professionals, and having experienced the events of 9/11 and major regional blackouts, we have always had a contingency business continuity plan for our Research, Recruiting and Account Management teams to work remotely.
You, our client companies and candidates, do not need to adjust any of your workflow or methods of contacting your Consentium Search representatives to fit our needs. We have all the resources and protocols necessary to help you as if this crisis did not exist.
Consentium Search wants you to rest assured that we are here and that we are fully prepared to handle all of your recruiting needs. Please feel free to reach out to any of us at any time. We will all get through this together!
