In today’s competitive world where everyone is vying to have an upper edge over the others, quality human resource is the key to the success and growth of an organization. Recruitment of people is like sowing the seeds for the success, growth and image of the organization. Recruitment Consultants are business partners critically connected with meaningful recruitment.
The Genesis
Consumed by the passion to ensure the placement of appropriate talent at the right place the nucleus of Placewell HRD Consultants was born in 2004, which commenced its operations from the following year. Since then it has enabled innumerable institutions to write their success stories. Known for its high ethical standards, dedication, focus and consummate services Placewell was founded by DS Reddy to provide unparalleled enterprise solutions.
DS Reddy a Visionary Leader

“Get closer than ever to your customers. So close that you tell them what they need well before they realize it themselves.”
-Steve Jobs
Conceptualizing this experience of Steve Jobs, DS Reddy derived his inspiration while building Placewell HRD Consultants to command loyalty and trust in client relations. The recruitment process with Placewell HRD Consultants is not just recruiting or giving the recruitment responsibilities away to someone else. It is under the guidance of DS Reddy that, recruitment process is much more of a relationship and is committed to boost the employment brand and to find the best talent possible, instead of filling positions and merely finding people who are qualified.
DS Reddy says, “I realized the tremendous potential and demand for the Indian Professionals in Africa. There was however a great deal of study, research and interaction with various employers in Africa and Middle East where hundreds of Indian expatriates were already placed well before Placewell came into existence.”
