In our website we have claimed to be a client focused firm dedicated to working in partnership with our clients to deliver solutions that work for the long term. See what our clients say about us.
What brings us back to Reddin Partners every time is David's professional and personal credibility - with clients and candidates. The other factors we value are:
- Ability to identify, and then attract, the type of candidates which will determine the success or otherwise of our organisation
- David's broad senior experience across a myriad of professional disciplines
- Accountable - no "too hard" basket
- Assessment process - the quadrant approach (CSF's versus SKA's) is conceptually simple but very effective for Hiring managers to use and relate to
- Quality system - including feedback from stakeholders
- National capability - including into regional areas
- Telling it like it is - no consultant-speak, no half truths, no passing off database search or mere networking as "true" search, a desire to ask questions and establish the facts rather than running on assumptions. This is pretty unique amongst the consultants out there.

David provided us with professional training workshops on interviewing skills for our senior managers. Our participants highly appreciate David's understanding of our approach and culture which makes his workshops practical. In spite of geographical distance, David always makes the effort to ensure proper pre-training preparation, including understanding participants' roles and responsibilities. There have been times when some participants preferred to practise in their own language, David still made extra effort to feedback through his understanding from the tone and non-verbal cues. David is committed not just to effectiveness of program delivery but also to participants' comfort and thus acceptance to immediate application at work.

– HR Director of a large Industry Representative Body
XXXX Company in the Philippines first invited David Reddin of Reddin Partners to work with us in November 2004. He came highly recommended by our Regional Office to assist us in enhancing the interviewing skills of our staff at various levels.
David's first challenge was to engage our full senior team and introduce them to assessment interviewing skills, get their buy in and engagement, and from there roll it out to their direct reports in turn. We were looking for training that was practical and commercially realistic in a market where talent can be thin on the ground, and where all major companies are actively competing for top talent.
David introduced us to an interview process that is extremely rigorous, and yet one that truly enables the interviewer to establish rapport with a candidate and encourages him to open up and share his story. The information that flows from these interviews is incredibly powerful and certainly opened our eyes to the importance of continual assessment of the patterns, choices, motivations and trends that do underpin each person's career.
Our senior team embraced the new techniques with great enthusiasm and as a result David has invited back to work with groups of managers at other levels over the years. We have really seen some positive results flow from his training - the people we have been hiring have fitted, succeeded and stayed, and Managers at all levels have become even more aware of the need to wrap development and retention plans around each hire. In purely commercial terms, David's training has added value to our bottom line!
At a personal level David is very much at ease working cross culturally, he is patient but demanding, connects well with people regardless of level, remains positive and motivated even during the longest of days, and encourages our teams to use their new skills. We're looking forward to him returning in again soon.
