Hirewell

For all intents and purposes, this has been my career. I started as a technical recruiter when we were a tiny shop and was afforded a wealth of opportunities: I launched our Digital Experience & Marketing practice, I launched our internal marketing and content function, and I currently lead our business development and strategy.

I’m a Partner at 𝗛𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 and I host Hirewell's 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 podcast. Those are the high points.

But what do we do specifically?

We recognize that hiring is hard. And hiring well is even harder.

But, that’s exactly what we help companies do: 𝗛𝗶𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹.

Since 2001, we've been a staple in the Chicago business community, helping our clients grow by recruiting the top-tier talent they need.

𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱.
The recruiting industry is chock full of single skill set providers. What companies really want is a partner who can have a broad impact across all facets of their organization, solving whatever hiring challenges they have. We’ve done just that, building diverse teams of highly specialized recruiters in the highest demand fields:

𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆
𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗰𝗲𝘀
𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 & 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴,
𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀
𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 & 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴
𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗱...

𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲.
Flexibility in creating our custom solutions has been a staple in our approach. During our own growth, we recognized that the traditional fulfillment models for recruiting service are deeply flawed. 

Contingent Search is expensive and the two-sided lack of commitment often yields poor results. Recruitment Process Outsourcing suffers from poor fulfillment; flat-rate service means providers have no skin in the game to maximize the end result. And traditional Executive Retained Search is exorbitantly overpriced, tone-deaf to the modern world of freely available data.

But Hirewell’s 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 are a paradigm shift in volume hiring. They’re built for fast growth situations, and more importantly, structured in a way that streamlines efficiency for all. It’s a best-of-all-worlds situation: Hirewell can provide dedicated onsite support, high-value services far beyond simple candidate sourcing (ATS management, hiring plans, job description creation and postings, interview set up and debrief, offer presentation and onboarding, etc.), and still utilize the entirety of Hirewell’s vast recruiting team and diverse skill area focus to achieve an optimized outcome.
