Creating Success

We connect with talent via a broad range of sources – referrals, networking, events, our online talent application, and online job postings.

Our screening process focuses on creating success for everyone involved: for our talent, for our client, and for our team.  This is our process:

  • Conduct a thorough job intake to understand company culture, requirements for the role, and our client’s expectations.
  • Create a search plan of potential companies and talent most aligned with the roles we are recruiting.
  • Initiate a preliminary review of portfolios and resumes in our network and outreach to new candidates.
  • Initial conversation and evaluation of talent for skills, experience, interest, availability, rates, location preferences & work eligibility.
  • In-depth internal interview (in-person, video, or call) with candidates to fully understand career goals, motivation, leadership, and culture fit.
  • Client presentation and interview set-up.
  • Process background and reference checks once the candidate moves towards the offer stage.
  • Partner with both client and talent as needed through the various stages of offer delivery, salary negotiations, acceptance, placement, and onboarding.
  • One of our core values is to create relationships based on trust.  We do this day in and day out to make sure both parties are content, productive, and thriving.
