Asset Resourcing March Newsletter v1 7 March 2014
Article 1 – Samantha Tipton is the King… Be honest, are you one of the 46m people a month playing King.com’s Candy Crush Saga? If you thought that number was high, here are some more facts and figures about the game we all get invited to ten times a day on Facebook –
61m ‘likes’ on Facebook One in seven people in Hong Kong are regular players In the US Apple iStore, daily revenues are around $630,000 It’s the third most popular free app as well as the highest grossing app on Google Play It has been installed half a billion times across Facebook, iOS and Android devices
It’s massive. It’s Angry Birds all over again and those who play it appear to love it. This is a recruitment newsletter though, so why are we talking about games that have been specifically designed to detract you from working hard and furthering your career? It’s because our colleague, Sam, has just signed up King.com as a client of Asset Resourcing. Not only are we immensely proud to have such an influential business on board, it is a testament to building, nurturing and maintaining solid business relationships that last. She always takes the ‘friend approach’ to recruitment and always finds that by not badgering people on the phone and letting them contact her in their own time, the resulting relationship is one of mutual respect and subsequently more successful. The hiring manager at King.com was aware of Samantha’s recruitment techniques and the standard of candidate she represents because she operates a European recruitment community on LinkedIn of which a number of King.com executives are members. As well as posts about specific roles, Samantha posts interesting and relevant articles and incites debate about the European job market, HR, business development as well as links to key speakers throughout Europe. It’s a method of client engagement that adds value to the Asset Resourcing service offering. At the moment, she is looking after King.com’s senior recruitment and recruiter roles for London, Germany and Stockholm. There is also a Learning and Development business partner position in London and a HR Business Partner in Barcelona with other positions within the HR space in the future.
