Recruiter standing in office at Limelight Search

The best candidates are already employed.

Want to reach them?

Limelight Search is a concierge recruiting service that helps you hire the candidates who aren’t applying for your jobs.

Great employees have great options.

The best people aren’t spending their days on job boards. They’re busy excelling in their current roles. And they’re getting spammed by recruiters all the time.

That’s why posting positions on your website and LinkedIn hasn’t yielded the candidates you want.

Exclusive Contingent Search

An exclusive contingent search is a success-based partnership with no up-front investment from you.

Working only with Limelight Search (rather than multiple firms) allows me to conduct the search for you in a coordinated, sophisticated way.

A fee is only collected once you have successfully hired the right person.
