NXP Semiconductors

Since I joined EM Microelectronic-Marin SA back in 2014, one of the first recruiting agencies I had contact with was European Tech Recruit. Now, many years later, I am very glad to say that we have established a very good and successful collaboration which is based on mutual trust, respect, openness and professionalism.

Thanks to the great experience and expertise of European Tech Recruit and their consultants, we have filled many difficult and key positions within the company, mainly in our IC engineering teams. I hope that EM can count on their services and support for many years to come. I can highly recommend them for any recruitment you need assistance with, whether it’s contracting or permanent placements.
