List</p></strong> <br><br> <p class="bodyhome"> Mee Derby announced on March 1st that it has been named to Inavero s 2011 Best of Staffing"! Client list. Best of Staffing, presented in partnership with CareerBuilder, is the nation s only satisfaction award that recognizes exceptional client service within the staffing industry. <br><br>  Less than 1% of staffing firms in the US and Canada have been named to the Best of Staffing List for Client Satisfaction, Mee Derby s President, Robin Mee said.  We are proud and honored to be recognized for our efforts in this way. <br><br> Staffing firms competing to make the Best of Staffing list underwent a rigorous client survey process followed by careful analysis of responses to determine satisfaction levels. Mee Derby received satisfaction ratings of 9 or 10 out of 10 from 82.8% percent of their clients, significantly higher than the industry s average of 47 percent. Best of Staffing participants secured a place on the list by earning an average Net Promoter Score® that was more than double the national staffing industry benchmark for client satisfaction. <br><br>  These are exciting times as the staffing industry is helping lead the way to renewed economic vitality, said Eric Gregg, Inavero s Founder and CEO.  It has been estimated that staffing firms have helped to fill at least one quarter of the 93,000 new jobs opening up each month in North America over the past year. Along with the increase in demand for talented job candidates, companies engaging with staffing firms expect impeccable service more than they ever have. It is our hope that businesses searching for a staffing partner use the Best of Staffing List as a guide to firms that have truly outperformed the industry for the service that they provide. <br><br> Inavero s complete Best of Staffing list can be viewed at <a href="http://www.bestofstaffing.com">www.bestofstaffing.com</a>.
