Covert Hire was founded on a simple principle: the best candidates aren't looking for jobs, they're building careers. Traditional recruitment methods miss these exceptional professionals entirely.
Our covert recruiting methodology reaches beyond job boards and LinkedIn to identify and engage with top-tier talent who would never consider a move through conventional channels.
With over 20 years of combined experience in executive search, talent strategy, and organizational development, our founders have built a firm that delivers results where others fail.
We combine cutting-edge sourcing technology with old-fashioned relationship building. Every search begins with deep discovery to understand not just the role requirements, but your organizational culture, strategic direction, and leadership dynamics.
Our research team maps the talent landscape, identifying professionals with the exact combination of experience, skills, and cultural fit you need. Then our consultants engage these candidates through carefully crafted outreach that respects their current commitments while presenting your opportunity compellingly.
The result? Access to candidates you couldn't reach any other way, delivered with speed, professionalism, and complete confidentiality.
