If there could be only one thing that the
people of SMR Group would be known for, let it be caring.
Caring to make a contribution to others. Caring about their
wants, needs and concerns. Caring to understand their
perspectives. Caring to treat them, as we would like to be
treated. Caring to help them in the best way possible with
their hiring and career interests. Caring to earn the trust
and gratitude of the people we serve, while not expecting
it.
From its inception in 1995,
SMR
Group has been piloted by its founder Rick Snowden
as
a company that diligently strives to demonstrate that it cares
the most about the people that privilege us with their
trust, our hiring clients and candidates.
This conviction is result of two
compelling, primary lessons. One is his years of corporate
sales and management where the marketplace taught that
lasting success was earned only by best caring for customer’s
needs. The other was his experience with the recruiting
field, as both a hiring manager and candidate, which left
him feeling that more competence and professionalism was
needed. The knowledge of these lessons was clear. Committing
to practicing the recruiting profession in the most caring
manner would make a significant contribution to others that
could only result in success.
Anyone that
SMR
Group serves can expect this same conviction from all
SMR team members.
This
devotion to caring was vital to the
placement of one of our very first candidates in
pharmaceuticals, Brendan. Our hiring client was charged with
a challenging opening for one of their top managers who is
now a Vice President. We diligently performed all the tasks
their needs demanded. This resulted in cold calling Brendan
at the company where he had become one of the sales leaders
in his first year out of college. He was about to initiate
his search for entrée into pharmaceuticals. We gained an
understanding of his qualifications and needs. Then matched
them up with our client’s needs and criteria. We quickly
presented his candidacy and facilitated the interview
process. Within several weeks Brendan had started the new
career he had planned and worked for. He rapidly rose
through the ranks into management, becoming a hiring client
of SMR Group. Caring to best
help people produced success for everyone involved.
It has been this dedication to caring
that has guided and driven us to placing over 700 candidates
with our clients.
It is this total
commitment to caring
that has permitted SMR Group to
earn the privilege of being a preferred recruiting service
provider to virtually every hiring manager we have the
chance to work with.
It will continue to be
"Caring to
Help You Best" that will be the principle that drives
SMR
Group onward into a future of growth and fulfillment.
