Attitude/enthusiasm/motivation of candidates is my focus - missing skills can be learned....

I started mrd Personnel Search in 1994 and still have fun! Because my business model is based on person-to-person relationships I never considered growing into a large company. A Swiss native, I grew up in Zug and spent over 20 years living and working in South Africa/USA.
By living and working in some exotic places I developed strong out-of-the-box thinking coupled with a hands-on approach. My Human Resources is backed by an IPM degree and includes staff development/training, as well as transferring corporate processes to local environments.
Other activities include:
  • Founder/President of HR Services Zug (www.hrsz.ch), 2005-2015
  • Past-President of BPW (Business and Professional Women) Club Zug, 2004-2008
  • Mentor for students at the University of St. Gallen (HSG), 2003-2010

    Marion is a true professional in recruiting, understanding and satisfying the customer’s needs. In the building a new fully fledged European head office from scratch, she was doing what was necessary to meet those needs. She was not bound by a time clock engaging with stakeholders throughout different time zones. She is one of my favourite recruiters because she is not only comparing the skill set with the job description but also weights the fitting of personality and motivation.

    I have had the pleasure of working with Marion for a few years now and always found her to be an outstanding professional. She goes at length to understand her client’s requirements as well as the candidates. Marion has a remarkable approach to the her business, genuinely international experience, good ear and eye for the candidates and versed in international recruiting. Bottom line ? Marion won’t just push candidates for the sake of it and will not send for an interview someone that hat she would consider second best.

    Marion was a godsend when we opened our company in Switzerland 10 years ago. She immediately understood the type of people I was looking for who filled both background and personality arguments to build the culture of an entrepreneurial fashion company. Through the years, she has remained my no.1 go-to HR partner for any personnel I needed.

    Marion has a natural ability to quickly build rapport with the client and a quick grasp of the essentials of a piece of recruitment as well as in particular the personalities attached to it - to me key in working together with any searcher. Marion however is not just any searcher but a pleasure to work with. She provides me with comprehensive and concise summaries of her candidates and is very responsive. I really appreciate Marion delivering at all times.
