Internal HR teams are often responsible for onboarding, compliance, employee relations, culture, and workforce support. They are not always built for the sustained outreach, market research, candidate engagement, and follow-through required to fill competitive or difficult roles.
That is where a specialized recruiting partner can make a measurable difference. Source and Recruit brings dedicated sourcing infrastructure, experienced recruiters, AI-enabled tools, pre-built candidate networks, and market intelligence to help employers reach stronger candidates and make more informed hiring decisions.
We support searches across nearly every industry and all 50 states. Because many of the roles we take on are difficult-to-fill positions, our average search runs about 9 weeks from first conversation to accepted offer. More routine searches, however, are often completed in 4 weeks or less.

We start with a talent discovery call to clarify the role, the team, and the hire profile. If the job description needs work, we help you sharpen it before sourcing begins. A strong brief produces a stronger shortlist.
We develop a tailored recruiting strategy based on market conditions and your timeline. Your proposal includes one primary recommendation and several alternative options, each outlining clear deliverables, terms, and pricing. Once approved, we begin strategic sourcing, tapping into our networks, databases, and outreach systems to build your candidate pipeline.
We manage the entire search from start to finish. This includes candidate sourcing, AI-assisted and assessment-based screening, and preparing shortlists with detailed evaluation summaries. As candidates advance, we coordinate interviews, facilitate PXT Select assessments, and handle SkillSurvey reference checks, background checks, and offer support.
Send us your resume or just tell us where you are and where you want to go. We work with candidates at every stage, whether your materials are polished or a work in progress.
We review your experience, target role, location preferences, and salary expectations. Then we map those requirements to active searches and companies actively hiring in your field right now.
We advocate for you through every stage of the process. Interview prep, offer negotiation, and follow through until you are in the seat. We do not close the file until you start.
Every hiring challenge is different. Some roles require a dedicated outbound search. Others call for a retained executive-level process. And some can be filled effectively with a well-managed inbound strategy. Source and Recruit structures each engagement around what your hiring situation actually requires. As a direct-hire only recruitment firm, we place permanent talent and operate as a dedicated partner to your organization from start to finish. Whether you are filling a single critical leadership role, managing several difficult searches, or improving the way your team handles inbound applicants, our focused team brings the strategy, sourcing support, and recruiting infrastructure needed to help you hire with confidence.
The Source and Recruit Company integrates AI across sourcing, candidate matching, market mapping, outreach, and recruiting workflows built specifically for talent acquisition. Our recruiters use AI tools to support job advertising, candidate engagement, compensation analysis, and talent intelligence. Experienced recruiters remain at the center of every client and candidate conversation. The result is a faster, more informed search process that delivers stronger candidates in less time.
The top reason candidates abandon a recruiting process is that it moves too slowly. We set clear timelines at kickoff, communicate progress on a defined cadence, and flag delays before they compound. Our clients know where their search stands at every stage.
We share placement data, time to fill, and candidate funnel metrics throughout each engagement. You see exactly how the search is performing and where adjustments improve it. No black box recruiting.
Critical roles rarely stay open without consequences. Delayed hires create bottlenecks, increase pressure on existing teams, and slow business momentum.
The Source and Recruit Company helps organizations solve these hiring challenges through a flexible recruiting model built around proactive sourcing, industry expertise, and modern recruitment technology. Rather than relying solely on inbound applicants, we actively source, engage, and screen qualified talent using established networks, AI-driven tools, and structured evaluation processes.
Our team supports searches across construction, engineering, healthcare, finance, manufacturing, hospitality, supply chain, and other specialized industries nationwide. Whether you need fractional recruiting support, a retained search partner, pre-hire assessments, reference checks, or salary intelligence, we help you make more confident hiring decisions while often reducing recruitment costs compared to traditional search models.

Got questions? Here are some quick answers to common concerns we hear from clients and candidates alike.
A recruiting agency generally helps an employer find and hire employees directly onto its payroll. A staffing agency may also employ workers and assign them to client organizations for temporary, contract, or contract-to-hire work.
The Source and Recruit Company offers direct-hire recruiting and staffing solutions, allowing employers to select the model that best fits their workforce needs.
Yes. We are headquartered in Danby Four Corners, Vermont, employ a Vermont-based workforce, and support employers throughout the state, including the Burlington, Rutland, Montpelier, Bennington, Brattleboro, and Northeast Kingdom regions.
We support numerous employers outside Vermont as well.
Yes. Direct-hire recruiting is a core part of our business. We help employers recruit for permanent positions through fractional recruiting, contingency search, retained search, and executive search arrangements.
The appropriate model depends on your hiring requirements, search complexity, and preferred commercial structure.
Our staffing offerings include temporary contract assignments and contract-to-hire arrangements, subject to assignment eligibility, required insurance, and agreed service terms.
For contract-to-hire engagements, an employer may evaluate an individual during an initial assignment before deciding whether to offer permanent employment.
The cost depends on the services requested, the position, and the engagement structure.
Direct-hire recruiting may involve a placement fee or time-based recruiting charges. Temporary staffing typically uses an hourly bill rate that includes the worker's compensation, applicable employment costs, and agreed recruiting and administrative charges.
We prepare proposals so businesses can review the applicable costs and terms before proceeding.
