Julia van El is the Corporate Recruiter at RTL. During an interview, she shares her insights into the successful collaboration between RTL and QGROUP. Since the collaboration that started in 2017, they have created more than 75 unique matches together. In this case, you will discover why RTL chose QGROUP and what makes this collaboration with, among others, its contact person Eva de Bies so unique.
RTL is the market leader in commercial radio and television stations in Europe and is a leading player in the entertainment industry. With a diverse range of broadcasting, streaming, content and the digital domain, RTL has interests in 56 different television channels, seven streaming services and 36 radio stations. Well-known platforms such as Videoland, RTL News and Buienradar are also part of their portfolio. Videoland is, among other things, the number 1 streaming service in the Netherlands.
At RTL, Julia and her colleagues are in charge of the entire recruitment process. They are responsible for filling a diverse spectrum of vacancies, in various fields. With around 1,400 employees, they strive to find the right talent for every aspect of the organization, in order to contribute to the continued success of RTL Netherlands.
Julia explained that previous collaborations with recruitment agencies led to an abundance of contacts, which did not benefit the internal processes. Due to the amount of messages, the process became very unclear. To create more clarity and focus, RTL critically assessed all collaborations with recruitment agencies to determine which agencies best suit their needs.
RTL was looking for a collaboration with an agency that is actively involved and thinks along with you. Not just an agency that passes through resumes, but one that wants to build a long-term relationship, provides actual advice, and thinks along with RTL. After careful consideration, a number of agencies were finally selected, with QGROUP chosen as the preferred partner for all tech vacancies.
When looking for IT professionals, it's important to be well informed about the latest trends and tools they use. In order to thoroughly understand the vacancies at RTL, Eva therefore regularly interviews various IT managers at RTL. This enables QGROUP to ask specific questions to find the ideal professional. Thanks to this close cooperation, QGROUP remains continuously up to date with the latest trends and developments within RTL.
“This profession is all about people. It's important that the collaboration feels good for all parties, and that's exactly what's happening.”
From the start, Julia has experienced the collaboration as very pleasant. The atmosphere is always relaxed and the candidates proposed by QGROUP suit the company's needs. Julia attaches great importance to personal contact, and that is one of QGROUP's most important core values.
According to Julia, what makes QGROUP unique is the speed of action, the pleasant contact and the personal approach: “As a customer, you are not a number. The customer is really listened to and almost only qualitative profiles are continued.”
“It's really nice to have one contact person, someone who is always available, whether that's via app, phone, or mail. I have an excellent relationship with Eva and Arye from Proteqt, and I had the same with Koen earlier. They are all trustworthy, you can really count on them. As in any collaboration, we also had our challenges, but those moments were actually valuable. We then sit together, discuss the situation, and always find a solution. It's nice to know that a solution is always possible.”
From the start of the collaboration between RTL and QGROUP, it immediately became clear that there was a noticeable improvement in the quality of the profiles presented. The combined use of the various QGroup labels, DIQQ and Proteqt, has led to more than 75 successful placements. By combining their expertise, a fruitful, transparent and long-term partnership with RTL has been established. At the heart of this partnership is an open line of communication, which testifies to the effectiveness and strength of QGROUP.
