Wed, 27 May 2009

Recruiters raised £2,500 for this year’s One Deal Comic Relief campaign. 

The One Deal initiative asked recruitment firms to donate the proceeds of ‘one deal’ or other sum to the Comic Relief charity.

Benefits for recruitment firm donors include a ‘thank you’ certificate and a One Deal web button to put on their website to show they have donated.

One Deal’s project manager and the initiative’s creator, Mark Merson,  managing director of Merson Palmer Executive Search, told Recruiter that he was “disappointed” with the sum raised. However, “it is not a bad amount given the terrible market conditons,”  he adds

The recruiters who donated to One Deal are:

- Hexagon Human Capital

- Square One

- Terra Nova Associates

- Source 4 Personnel Solutions

- Diamonds HR

- QSW
