Coopers Among Switzerland’s Best Recruiting Agencies for the 8th Consecutive Year
Full score in all categories
from Dr. Elena D’Cruz
21. March 2025
What an honor – and for the eighth year in a row!
In 2025, Coopers ranks once again among the best recruiting agencies in Switzerland. The prestigious ranking by Handelszeitung, PME, and Statista was published today – and we are thrilled to be represented, once again, in all three evaluated categories with the highest possible score (100/100).
3 Categories – 3 Times Excellence
The ranking distinguishes between three areas of recruitment services – and we are proud to have achieved top marks in all of them:
Executive Search focuses on recruiting executives and top management positions. Companies are increasingly relying on specialized recruiters to find the right leadership personalities – a task that requires strategic acumen, discretion, and a strong network. Coopers achieved the highest score in this category, a testament to our extensive experience in successfully filling key C-level positions.
Professional & Specialist Search
This category focuses on placing skilled professionals and specialists, particularly in high-demand industries such as IT, Engineering, and Life Sciences. In addition to technical expertise, the perfect match between candidates and company culture is crucial. With 100 out of 100 points, Coopers reaffirms its strong industry expertise and network.
Temporary work is no longer just a short-term solution – it provides companies with flexibility and offers exciting opportunities for professionals. Beyond salary, career development opportunities and recognition play a key role. Coopers received the highest rating in this category because we manage temporary and contracting assignments with the same high-quality standards as permanent positions.
What Defines the Best Recruiters?
HR professionals, candidates, and industry experts were surveyed for this ranking. The evaluation criteria included:
- Quality of the candidate pool
- Communication and service quality
- Selection processes and transparency
- Price-performance ratio
