Note To 3rd Parties
Here at Full Circle we are very lucky to be very successful recruiting all our new employees ourselves. Something we are very proud of. Despite our kind requests to all of you not to reach out for support in this area, our HR team, hiring managers and our front office are overwhelmed with contact requests, telephone calls, email requests and other attempts to get in touch. We know you guys are out there, we understand that this cold acquisition is part of your job, but we strongly request you to respect our time and not reach out. We want to use all the time we have to make the world a greener place! If we ever need support, we’ll work with our preferred suppliers (and no, we are not looking for new ones ;-)) We appreciate your understanding on this, and we wish you the best of luck on finding your next client.
