What changes from sector to sector.
The engineering is similar. The stakes, the data and the rules are not, so each search is scoped and screened differently.

Do you need industry experience to recruit for my company?
It helps, because the rules differ: health tech engineers handle patient data, fintech engineers handle money, and security engineers are held to their own product’s standard. We scope what is different about your sector at intake and screen candidates on it, in technical conversations run by engineers.
Do you recruit non-technical roles in these industries?
No. We recruit engineers, data people, product managers, UX designers, go-to-market technologists and technical leaders. We do not place clinical, finance, creative or support staff.
Do you recruit for investment banks?
Yes. Investment banking was 12% of our 2026 placements, and we placed 11 senior quant analysts at investment banks in Miami and Boston. See quant developers and researchers.
How fast can you deliver candidates in any industry?
82% of the candidates we submit are interviewed. Contract consultants can start in as little as three days, and direct-hire placements carry a 90-day guarantee.
