Dispelling Staffing & Recruiting Myths: The Concentric Approach

April brings with it a sense of whimsy and lightheartedness, often associated with pranks and jests. Yet, amidst the April Fools’ festivities, some myths persist in the serious world of staffing and recruiting. At Concentric Corporation, we believe it’s time to debunk the staffing & recruiting myths & misconceptions to shed light on the truth behind our approach.

Myth #1: Recruiters Just Want to Sell You a Job

It’s a common misconception that recruiters are solely focused on pushing any available job onto professionals, regardless of their preferences or career goals. At Concentric, we take a different approach. Our recruiters prioritize getting to know professionals on a personal and professional level before even mentioning a job opportunity. We understand that a successful placement is not just about filling a position but about finding the right fit for both the candidate and the employer.

Myth #2: Fear of Confidentiality Breaches

Professionals often hesitate to reach out to recruiting agencies out of fear of jeopardizing their current job positions. At Concentric, we prioritize confidentiality in every interaction. Our conversations are held in the strictest confidence, ensuring that your job search remains private until you’re ready to make a move. Your career journey is yours alone, and we respect and safeguard that at every step.

Myth #3: Concerns About Fees for Hiring Managers

For hiring managers, partnering with a recruiting firm may raise concerns about additional fees and expenses. However, collaborating with Concentric can actually save you both time and money in the long run. Our expertise in hiring allows us to streamline the recruitment process, delivering top-tier candidates efficiently and effectively. While there may be a fee associated with our services, the value we bring in finding the right talent far outweighs the cost.

At Concentric Corporation, we pride ourselves on being more than just a staffing and recruiting agency.

We are your strategic partner in talent acquisition, dedicated to helping professionals find their ideal career paths and assisting businesses in building high-performing teams. So, this April, let’s dispel the myths and embrace a new era of recruitment built on trust, transparency, and true partnership. Let us handle the hiring process, while you focus on growing your business and achieving your goals. With Concentric by your side, the possibilities are endless.

Meet Concentric Corporation: Let Us Reintroduce Ourselves

Hello there, valued reader, meet Concentric 🙂

Thank you for considering partnering with us on your career journey, and as we continue to evolve, we’d like to reintroduce ourselves, shedding light on the exciting new ventures we’ve embraced.

At Concentric, we’re not just about connecting companies with top-tier professionals; we’ve broadened our horizons to serve a wider spectrum of industries. We’re thrilled to share that we now proudly recruit for Information Technology, Accounting, Finance, Marketing, and Sales, offering a diverse selection of opportunities for sustainable growth in these dynamic fields.

Our roots are steeped in over two decades of experience in the hiring and staffing industry. We realized the limitations of the transactional nature prevalent in an industry driven by people. Concentric was created to infuse a more personal touch into the hiring process, transcending the superficiality of keyword-driven evaluations.

Our founder, Andy, often says, “We’re not your average staffing company,” and we stand by that claim. We believe that finding the perfect fit requires more than just filling a job opening—it demands a nuanced understanding of cultural alignment, shared goals, and skill sets. We’re committed to building relationships that strengthen team dynamics, foster healthier companies, and elevate employee retention.

What sets Concentric apart is our holistic approach to recruitment. We invest time in deeply understanding the needs of both clients and candidates, ensuring a harmonious match. Our process isn’t merely about selling a job; it’s about finding the ideal fit for your aspirations.

We specialize in recruiting for Senior level and Executive positions in Information Technology, spanning hardware, software, security, infrastructure engineering, data engineering and intelligence, leadership/management, and now, expanding into Accounting, Finance, Marketing, and Sales.

But it’s not just about the positions; it’s about the people we work with. We understand the frustrations of navigating job boards and seeking a more humanized hiring process. That’s why, from the beginning, our recruiters become your sole point of contact, providing personalized support throughout your journey. Whether it’s resume enhancement, interview preparation, or wardrobe advice for that critical first meeting, we’re here for you—every step of the way, at no cost.

At Concentric, we’re passionate about forging mutually beneficial connections between companies and candidates, fostering growth and success for all involved. We appreciate your time and attention and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you soon.

Warm regards,

The Concentric Team
