This award – LinkedIn Top 25 – is down to our engagement with our LinkedIn community, and more importantly, their engagement with us. That’s why we would like to give our most sincere appreciation, and thanks, to all of our clients. We also want to give a special thanks to all of those chefs who have connected with us and who have helped us make this list. They are everywhere in the world and we thank them.

Of course it is also important to recognise that being placed among the world’s top engaged recruitment agencies, is also down to how we have exploited Linkedin. It is a great platform and we’ve made heavy use of it.

TOPCHEFS Recruitment wins a place on the “LinkedIn Top 25 Most Socially Engaged Staffing Agencies” in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

For us LinkedIn has served as an extraordinary force multiplier.  It’s been a force multiplier for our content, our chef job posts and other chef employment related content. Our success, especially making the LinkedIn Top 25, on this platform represents some very welcome recognition of TOPCHEFS Recruitment social recruiting abilities.

Keeping in touch with Chefs…Everywhere

As a specialist chef recruitment agency, with a focus on hotels, restaurants and gastro pubs, TOPCHEFS Recruitment must be able to communicate with our culinary contacts all over the world.

LinkedIn is an effective platform for doing this. It helps us keep in touch with these chefs throughout the year. By keeping in touch with these chefs we stay top of mind with them too. This is valuable when they are ready to make their next career move and relocate from one kitchen to another. Which agency do you think becomes the first to hear?
