Based in Chicago, Covert Recruiting is a recruiting and staffing company operating nationwide. We partner with high growth companies to develop hiring strategies and deliver top talent. Not every company has the same needs, so we can customize our approach to serve each individual situation. We can assist with short term project or consulting work, direct hiring, talent pipeline building, search strategy, branding, interview coaching, and more.
Our goal is to be able to represent our clients and tell their story as if we were an extension of your team. In this extremely competitive marketplace, it’s imperative to stand out from the crowd, and the more we can personalize our approach, the better. We are also devoted to attracting and finding the strongest talent. We do that by offering candidates true coaching and career advice while pursuing the best possible roles for them. That’s Covert Recruiting.
It starts with an in depth discussion about your company, your culture, your challenges. We get to know you and what separates you from your competitors. Then, we come up with a customized plan to help you find the talent you need to grow. Covert Recruiting brings an aggressive approach to recruiting, and because we’re in growth mode, your searches get extra attention. Many of the “big name” recruiting firms will run a surface level search and then move on to the next easiest fill – we vow to take a deeper dive until the job is done. There’s no fluff, there’s no gimmicks – just transparency, collaboration, reliability, and quality.
In a time where there is unprecedented amounts of talent actively or passively looking for a job change, we know you have a lot of options. At Covert Recruiting, we understand there are real (and not so real) opportunities available at your fingertips everyday. But – they’re not always easy to access. More than anything, we want to be your Career Partner. We are not interested in highly transactional, resume flipping. We will spend time to build a rapport and relationship with you (via in-person, phone or video) and learn exactly what you are looking for. We’ll do career coaching until you find your dream job. There’s no ghosting – ever – but we know you don’t need an update in your inbox everyday either. We’re proactive, attentive, and we want to win your trust and get you to the next step of your career.
Regardless of what area you need to hire, Covert Recruiting will help you understand your hiring goals and challenges. We have seen just about every situation and can strategize with you to make it happen. It starts with understanding the type of person you need and what you expect from them, then communicating it to potential candidates. From there, we manage the process every step of the way. Our goals are to fill not only your most important role, but those across your team – and that includes the following focus areas & more!
As most logistics recruiters send you hundreds of resumes a week and hope one sticks, we take a much more detailed approach so we weed out the non-qualified applicants. We take the time to come on-site and meet with you regarding your hiring needs so we have the best possible understanding of your company’s story, culture and expectations of Covert.
“The Covert team actually vetted the candidates they brought to us before introducing them. We were able to grow 4X in 2020 due to the Covert team’s successful approach and qualified talent.”
