BBA wins the Internal innovation in recruitment and retention award at the Ontario Engineering Project Awards

The award recognizes the best programs designed to attract and retain candidates, a major challenge companies in all sectors are facing in today's talent war.

“We understand that the minute a candidate chooses us is crucial to retention and engagement,” explains Renée-Claude Turgeon, BBA's Chief Talent and Sustainability Officer. Our candidate experience begins when the application for the desired position is submitted and develops into an employee experience that starts as soon as the contract is signed. While we work hard to recruit the best candidates so our firm can reach its full potential, we also believe that we need to invest just as much effort into providing them with an experience that lives up to our employer promise.”

Also, as Jérôme Pelletier, President and CEO of BBA states, “As a professional services firm, we need to continually adapt our approach to recruiting and retaining the best talent, which enables us to provide clients with innovative, reliable and sustainable solutions. Our new hybrid work model has influenced our practices over the past few years and has forced us to rethink many of our business processes, like our onboarding program.”

BBA is especially grateful to Brigitte Skeene, co-founder and associate at Talent IQ, a well-known Aboriginal business, who helped our team optimize the firm’s onboarding processes based on best practices and the latest trends. We also want to thank Oranje, a video agency, for their creative support.

BBA is currently looking to recruit innovative thinking professionals in a number of areas to support its activities. To learn more and see our job offers, visit our Career page.
