This page is for employers hiring in the United States. With Alliance, one consultant manages your search from the brief to the start date: agreeing the salary range and requirements with you, sourcing and screening candidates, and sending you a shortlist within 24–48 hours of an agreed brief.

Trusted US Recruitment Consultants for Every Industry
Every hiring problem is different. A tech startup needs developers who can move fast; a hospital network needs clinicians ready on day one; a manufacturing plant needs technicians who stay.
Your consultant starts by agreeing what success looks like in the role, the salary range, the work-authorization requirements and the interview plan. Only then does sourcing start, so every candidate you see is measured against the same brief.
For nationwide hiring across every US state, see our recruitment agencies in the USA page.

The Value of a Dedicated Recruitment Consultancy in the US Market
Hiring in the USA comes with rules that vary by location. Every new US hire completes Form I-9 so the employer can verify identity and authorization to work, and New York City, for example, has required a good-faith pay range in every job advertisement since 1 November 2022.
Your consultant agrees the salary range and work-authorization requirements with you at the briefing stage, so job ads, shortlists and offers stay consistent and compliant.
Our Consultant Recruitment Services
We offer a few different ways to work with us, depending on what your business actually needs right now.
Permanent Staffing Solutions
Looking to build out your core team? We handle full-cycle permanent recruitment, from writing the job description to negotiating the final offer. You get candidates who aren’t just qualified on paper, but who fit how your team actually works.
Contract Staffing
Sometimes you need someone fast, and you don’t need them forever. Whether it’s covering parental leave, handling a seasonal rush, or staffing a short-term project, we can have screened candidates in front of you within 24–48 hours of an agreed brief.
Executive Search
Finding the right leader is a different challenge altogether. Our executive search process is built for discretion and precision, connecting you with senior-level talent who can actually steer your business forward, not just fill a title. For confidential C-suite searches in New York, see executive search firms in NYC.
Volume & Bulk Hiring
Opening a new location? Scaling a team quickly? Our consultant recruitment process is built to handle high-volume hiring without losing quality control, so you’re not stuck sorting through hundreds of unqualified applicants on your own.
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)
If you’d rather hand off your entire hiring function, we can step in as an extension of your HR team, managing everything from sourcing to onboarding on an ongoing basis. See our RPO services in the USA.
Industries We Recruit For Across the USA
No matter your industry, we bring recruiters who actually understand the roles they’re filling, not generalists guessing their way through a job description.

How Our US Recruitment Consultants Work
We keep our process straightforward, because hiring is stressful enough without added complexity.
Step 1 — Understanding Your Requirements
We start with a real conversation about the role, your team, and what “the right hire” actually looks like for you.
Step 2 — Talent Sourcing & Screening
Our recruiters tap into our existing talent networks and active sourcing channels to find candidates who match, then screen them thoroughly before you ever see a resume.
Step 3 — Shortlisting & Interviews
Your consultant sends a shortlist of screened candidates within 24–48 hours of an agreed brief and coordinates interviews around your schedule.
Step 4 — Offer & Onboarding Support
Once you’ve found your person, we help manage the offer process and stay available to smooth out any bumps during onboarding.

Frequently Asked Questions
A recruitment consultant works for your business to define the role, source and screen candidates, and manage interviews and offers. At Alliance, your consultant agrees the salary range and requirements with you first, then sends a shortlist within 24–48 hours of an agreed brief.
It depends on the model. Contingency placements are charged as a percentage of the new hire’s first-year salary and paid only when the candidate starts. Retained executive searches are billed in stages across the search. RPO is priced as a monthly retainer, a per-hire fee or a mix. You’ll get a written quote before the search starts.
Your HR team keeps the final decisions, but a consultant takes on the sourcing, screening and scheduling, with a wider candidate network and the time to reach people who aren’t applying for jobs. That usually means a faster shortlist and fewer wasted interviews.
For most roles you’ll have a shortlist within 24–48 hours of an agreed brief. How long it takes to hire depends on your interview process and the candidate’s notice period; senior and specialist roles take longer.
The agency is the company; the consultant is the person who runs your search. With Alliance you get both: one consultant [CONFIRM] who owns your brief, backed by the agency’s network across 36+ countries. For an overview of our US services, see recruitment agencies in the USA.
Permanent placements carry a 90-day replacement guarantee. If the hire leaves within that period, we find a replacement at no extra charge.
