Ma Foi Launches Retail Job Shoppes'
June 14, 2006 Ma Foi Management Consultants Ltd, India's largest staffing and HR service provider announced their foray into Retailing of Job opportunities. This new initiative is a pioneering effort and would exponentially increase market penetration of professional staffing services and lessen the gap between the employers and the employment seeker.

The objective of the Retail outlet is to make the job opportunity accessible to candidates at convenient locations and provide opportunities available in their immediate locality. Accessibility to a variety of database and providing the right job in the right locality would facilitate in making the business productive.

Mr. K. Pandia Rajan, Managing Director & CEO, Ma Foi Management Consultants Ltd, said, ''Ma Foi has earlier taken professional recruitment to tier II and tier III towns through the franchising mode". According to him, there is enormous untapped potential in the metro markets like Mumbai and Delhi where the accessibility to the recruitment consultant and the job provider plays a major role in attracting the right talent. Ma Foi job centers will be strategically located across the cities providing a strong professional approach, effective and efficient service at competitive and economical pricing. "This model would provide for effective mapping of the local needs to local talents," he said.

From the Industry perspective, the demand for localized qualitative database has increased as this solves the logistic and economic problems of a recruitment process. There is also a need for professional advice from the candidates' side, thereby necessitating the need for an immediate solution in their neighbourhood. Candidates can walk in to their closest job center, where their job requirement is understood based on their profile, and a personalised placement service is provided.

A personalised interaction provides both the candidate and the placement officer greater insights into the possibilities at either end and hence scores over a technology enabled job site which has a large but unorganised database available online.

Ma Foi retail outlets would fine tune the database, and classify it better. Candidates with experience and background in FOS i.e. feet on street, Call centre, Financial services, Retail, FMCG and BPO segments would find it comfortable to register at these Job centres. This would also be advantageous to small sized companies of the neighbourhood, who can bring in their requirements and can get much faster service due to the accessibility factor.

Advantages:
  • Reach new target markets.
  • Improve the customer experience, helping increase consumer commitment to your brand.
  • Maintain an awareness of changing requirements for accessibility.

Ma Foi will aim to establish 25-30 Job Centers by end of December 06. These Job Centers will be in large population and distance based cities like Mumbai, Delhi etc. Ma Foi's strength of being successful in the recruiting business would be leveraged upon to deliver quality and speedy service at these retail outlets.

Ma Foi continues to retain its leadership position in specialist staffing sector with over 19250 deputees.
