Year Project - At the time, industry analysts referred to this company
as the “Darling of the CLEC Telecom Companies”. The company
was highly revered and grew from 200 to over 2000 employees in just
two years. Precision Recruiting was selected early on to jump-start
the recruiting process and develop successful recruiting strategies
for the most demanding departments throughout the company. Departments
included: MIS, Network Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Business Integration
Group, and their prized Six Sigma Quality / Process Improvement Department – Successfully

the nation to build out their department. No outside recruiters were
ever utilized to fill any of these positions, thus ensuring the lowest

longest tenured recruiting firm for this client. PRI assisted in
the management and development of the recruitment team by recruiting
some of the best recruiters in the area. Overall cost per hire for
the team averaged around $1500. PRI successfully recruited 90 high-speed

Brewing Company – 18 Month Project - Precision
Recruiting (PRI) was sought out to manage the staffing process of
their company-wide, mission-critical Y2K project, during a time when
qualified resources were extremely limited. The project included
working with IBM who was co-managing the project. After accepting
the assignment PRI realized that the budget for hiring these Y2K

model that saved over $400,000 in consultant billing expenses during
that 18 month project.

Data Entry, Administrative, etc.
