In South Africa, particularly, we headhunt only the best talent, to not only fill the client’s brief but also to attract the best talent fit for the company culture. One of these measures is looking for the prestigious Red & Yellow qualification. We find that these candidates are far more equipped not only on a skill level but on an interpersonal level as well. A Red & Yellow qualification really goes a long way.
