Specialist Skills That Matter

It’s one thing to be skilled at placing people.  Then it’s another thing to have done the work of the people that you place.  The other day I caught some of our Quality Resource Specialists sorting parts under magnification at their desks – resolving a crisis – doing whatever it takes.  Most of them have first-hand experience as inspectors.  All of them have a depth of understanding of even the most complex inspector skills – because they work only a few steps from these kind of professionals in QC’s Minnesota lab.  I’m glad they have the depth of knowledge to make the most accurate placements in the Quality field.  Then I know they are doing things worth telling others about.

What Customer Panelists Said

We held a customer panel last week to listen to what they had to say about service in general, and the service they’ve received from The QC Group.  Here are some of the comments we heard that are already driving change in QC’s information systems and training documentation:

  • “I need updates on my jobs – but I want to determine the frequency.”
  • “Confirm to me what work you will be performing when you accept an order.”
  • “I like to be treated as your #1 or #2 customer.”
  • “Give me direct access to someone that can solve my problem when I call.”

These are just a few comments driving improvements to reach for service that is worth talking about.  Others will follow.

We hope you will notice the changes in coming months.
