“I have an open dialogue with René Kemps from CLS, sometimes even together defining what kind of skills we are actually looking for. It’s the only agency I am working with that plans a yearly site visit and calls me now and then, apart from formal performance evaluations. They care about their employees and their clients, that shows.”
Miranda van Beers, Scientific Manager Analytics at J&J Innovative Medicine, is very happy about the co-operation with CLS. “Personal attention for employees and clients does not stop after onboarding at CLS. They really care and stay directly in touch with both of us on performance and personal development. I have noticed a positive effect on the well-being of employees in my team, if they experience good guidance from their agency. They perform better and are happy people. And for me as a manager that makes a huge difference.
CLS has extensive knowledge of the field we are working in. We can talk about the kind of expertise of candidates we are looking for and the CLS team makes sure to find these persons in their large network. My team is working in the early stage of drug development processes. Therefore we are looking for candidates with a discovery mindset, eager to explore new things and willing to face challenges. That cannot be simply found on a resume. From my experience they have solid conversations with candidates and therefore can introduce us to people who have the needed technical and soft skills as well as the right mindset.
About mindset, CLS believes in growth and development of people and business. They encourage e.g. training & coaching of employees. What I appreciate is their willingness to find a solution that matches our demands and wishes, even if they haven’t done it before. CLS is our partner in secondment and I can definitely recommend them.”
