The biotechnology industry is distinct from the pharmaceutical industry because biotech companies produce larger and more diverse biological molecules such as recombinant proteins, antibodies, antigens, vaccines, enzymes and DNA-based molecules. They will typically address targets that a small-molecule pharmaceutical company cannot.

"Well done Debra and HRS"
Being exceptionally busy and with an urgent need to recruit, by coincidence or divine intervention and I'm not sure which, I was approached by Debra Fong of HRS to see if there was need for any recruitment by my company and if so could HRS be of service. Without wanting to waste time after a short phone call with Debra I acquiesced but knowing the skills in the advanced technologies from the ideal senior candidate were as rare as hen's teeth I sat back and started thinking of the wording I was going to have to use in the 'Situations vacant' section of the relevant specialist trade journals. Imagine my surprise when a couple of days later I had two CVs in my hands, one from a good candidate for the job, the other being quite exceptional. The latter not only experienced in everything I thought important but also it was quite clear the candidate would benefit greatly from joining us. A remarkable win-win situation.

"Nothing is too much trouble and, even if it is, you never would know!"
I have worked with David Powell (and colleagues) for just over a year. Appreciate that the recruitment business is a very competitive market but have been extremely impressed leading up to and during my experience of doing business with David and the team. In particular, I acknowledge the commitment to personal service.

"Our first experience using HRS has been extremely successful"
Ben Hamlin has been exceptionally helpful, conscientious and passionate about finding the right employee to fill our vacancy. He is dedicated and reliable and always follows up on any commitments made. Ben has taken all the leg work out of sifting through hundreds of CVs and all the candidates who were interviewed had relevant experience and were suitable for the role. I would be happy to recommend HRS to anyone looking to recruit new staff, they really have been great!

"I look forward to reaping the rewards of the high standards that Ricky has proposed to me and developing a long-term relationship with all at HRS."
I have just recently used Hyper Recruitment Solutions, with Ricky Martin as our main account manager. So far the recruitment process has been up to my standards, he has picked up the understanding of our business very quickly, which makes recruiting so much easier on my part. Although this has been a very short-term business partnership so far.
