==Second largest?==
Who said its the second largest HR? I am very eager to believe so, but at least one of the citations should say so, thanx ] (]) 23:04, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

==Randstad UK==
My apols I somehow lost the content I was going to place. It will still be in the history of revisions though. I removed it because 1) it is basically spam COI and 2) it doesn't belong as far up in this article. If anything it should be covered under subsidiaries. ] (]) 11:06, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

== Spam? ==

Removed this, because it sounds more like an advertisement than objective information:

"Randstad is the world’s third largest recruitment and HR services company. But what really sets us apart is our unique approach. We are an ethical company that cares passionately about our clients and our candidates. We know just how important (and difficult) finding and employing the right staff can be. We are a business that deals with people – not with vacancies.

The Randstad approach is centred around the vital importance of making sure that we achieve a lasting match between candidate, client and job.

why is randstad different? When it comes to employing the right people, Randstad gives you the edge. That is because of our unique system, in which consultants are responsible for both client service and staff selection. This means we are better placed to meet the needs of businesses and individuals.

As your employment specialist, they will focus on every aspect of your business - taking the time to know how you operate, understand what you expect and the kind of people that will meet your needs. Consultants also take the time to get to know each applicant, not just what skills and experience they offer, but the personality and qualities that will help them to in with your business." <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 14:13, 14 May 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Spherion Acquisition ==

I don't have any citations, but as a Spherion employee, I was curious whether there would be any mention of the recent acquisition here. I believe the change goes into effect on 13 January 2012. -] (]) 23:41, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

: might as well be mentioned ] (]) 00:11, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

== Point of view ==

Sections of the article seem to come directly from the company. I suggest some sections get major rewrites. I'm going to remove some vandalism right now and start looking for some unbiased sources. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 16:10, 16 February 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

: I don't agree it read like an advert (cf. tag, now removed) but it was conversational rather than encyclopedic in tone and was not written in idiomatic English. I've tried to address this. I'll add that as a successful company, there will be numerous positive things to say about it, which does not ''ipso facto'' constitute "advertising" ] (]) 00:09, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

: Which areas stand out to you the most? -- ] (]) 03:02, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

== External links modified ==

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to {{plural:2|one external link|2 external links}} on ]. Please take a moment to review . If necessary, add {{tlx|cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{tlx|nobots|deny{{=}}InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/20110902085643/http://www.randstad.com:80/about-us/management/executive-board to http://www.randstad.com/about-us/management/executive-board
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/20110902085502/http://www.randstad.com:80/about-us/management/supervisory-board to http://www.randstad.com/about-us/management/supervisory-board

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the ''checked'' parameter below to '''true''' to let others know.

{{sourcecheck|checked=false}}

Cheers.—]<small><sub style="margin-left:-14.9ex;color:green;font-family:Comic Sans MS">]:Online</sub></small> 13:51, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

== Orphaned references in ] ==

I check pages listed in ] to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for ] in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of ]'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for ''this'' article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

<b>Reference named "AR2015":</b><ul>
<li>From ]: {{cite web |url=http://www.fugro.com/media-centre/press-releases/fulldetails/2016/02/26/fugro-fy-2015-strong-cash-flow-in-continuing-challenging-oil-and-gas-market |title=Fugro Annual Report 2015 (interactive website)|publisher=Fugro N.V.}}</li>
<li>From ]: {{cite web |url=http://annualreport.dsm.com/ar2015/en_US/home.html |title=Annual Report 2015 |accessdate=1 March 2016 |publisher=DSM}}</li>
</ul>

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. ]] 15:32, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
