Executive Recruitment

With over 200 years of combined experienced in executive recruitment, let our recruiting team help you fill all senior and executive staffing needs. With our database exceeding over 200,000 candidates, we can provide you all the support needed, without the time-consuming process of doing it yourself.

Retained Search

For companies looking to fill a senior position, quickly and confidentially, we suggest this method. Most commonly, a retained search is utilized for positions that are critical to the clients’ success.

For our retained search we charge a percentage fee calculated by the annual compensation of the recruited candidate. This fee essentially covers the time, labor, and search methods necessary in the recruiting process. We are happy to discuss specifics on a no-obligation consultation call.

Mid-Level Recruitment

Sourcing, interviewing, and hiring candidates on your own can become extremely time-consuming and surprisingly expensive. Working with an array of various businesses and organizations, we pride ourselves on our effort to not only deliver the best possible candidates but also in a timely manner so workflow remains fluid. With security in mind, all of our candidates are subject to strict background checks, along with resume reference confirmations.

Contingent Search

ACG also offers our clients the option to pay in full once the recruiting process is complete, or essentially, once the hire has been made. Most commonly, this method is often used by businesses in pursuit of lower to mid-level positions. Using state-of-the-art technology, we can find candidates, for any position, on a confidential basis. Understanding that time is money, we make the entire contingent search as fast and seamless as possible.

Hybrid Search

A hybrid search is a combination of retained and contingency searches, where we do not charge a retainer. Instead, we charge a cancellation fee if the search is canceled for any reason other than non-performance on the part of ACG Resources. Further details available upon request.
