(Reuters) - British recruiter Robert Walters Plc on Monday reported a rise in first-quarter profit, boosted by strong hiring in Asia Pacific and Europe, but said its performance in France was hit by a turbulent political backdrop.

The company, which places people in finance, engineering, legal and marketing jobs, said gross profit rose 11 percent to 98.6 million pounds in the three months ended March.
