The initial reqs came from the V.P. level. Having hired one of our resources and appreciating the superior quality of candidates and our streamlined process, he quickly spread the word to other hiring managers. Our reputation grew and a strong relationship began.
With strong inter-company referrals, we were able to expand quickly. In fact, we are often given exclusive rights to support projects at this company. We placed 70 contractors at once and have several hundred currently deployed to this valuable client. 94% are on contract. This strong relationship led to an introduction to our domestic outsourcing services as well. They are currently engaged with our talent resources in Brewton, AL.

With our quality process, our interview to hire ratio went from 15:1 to 4:1. Because they value our resources and their superior quality, 60% of the contractors were converted to full-time employment.
