Casual Male taps Headway for national recruitment

Headway Corporate Resources, a North American workforce solutions provider, has announced its recruitment solution partnership with Casual Male Retail Group, an international specialty retailer of big and tall men’s apparel. Headway’s recruitment strategies, combined with its technology-driven sourcing and assessment processes, have enabled the Casual Male Retail Group to find and acquire superior quality store managers, assistant managers and district managers in a more effective and efficient manner than traditional recruiting methods, the companies said.

"I know that having the right people in the stores is making a tremendous difference to our customers and that ultimately is creating a much healthier business environment for us," said Dennis Hernreich, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Casual Male Retail Group. Headway has been working with the Casual Male Retail Group since late 2009 and has sourced, screened and touched over 15,000 job seekers for the apparel retailer. "Headway has been an integral part of the company's effort to more effectively and efficiently source store management and associates with superior customer service skills."

Headway’s recruitment solution for Casual Male Retail Group includes proactive sourcing methodologies as well as a three-level customized assessment program which aligns with the retailer’s most sought-after candidate characteristics. Also, key to the program’s success is Headway’s centralized delivery model and GPS Recruitment technology, which reduces the time and resources required to find, qualify and select the best matched talent.
