Working with Carex — no matter if you’re a candidate or partner — can be summed up in two ways: understanding your needs, and then getting to work. In our experience, you can’t have one without the other.
If you were expecting a tidy flowchart of our process on this page, we’re sorry to disappoint! The truth is, when it comes to making career moves and hiring for roles, there isn’t a neat process, or a list of boxes to check off.
New careers — and hiring — require a personalized approach, and that’s exactly what we deliver.
We go in-depth with both candidates and partners to get a full understanding of all the details we need to make the best matches possible: details on open roles, insights into a company’s culture, and individual career needs and goals.
Once we’ve had those conversations, the next step is to roll up our sleeves and make things happen. A job search can be incredibly time-consuming and stressful for candidates, so we act as your wingman (or wingwoman or wingperson) by:
For partners, we work in a similar way by:
Absolutely. If you’re just looking around to see what’s out there, we’d still love to connect with you. Sometimes, we’ll work with a candidate for a year before we find that perfect fit for them — how you choose to engage with us is entirely up to you.
For sure. Part of building a relationship with you is filling the needs you have now and in the future. It can take 60-70 days to fill niche technology roles. Even reaching out two months before your need arises can set you up for success!
That lack of engagement and responsiveness is the reason we started Carex in the first place — it’s downright maddening when you don’t hear from the person who says they’re helping you! We will always tell you as much as we know, as soon as we know it.
I started using Carex for my staff augmentation just earlier this year, and have really transitioned to using them exclusively. I am consistently impressed with the quality of candidates and the speed at which I receive them. They did a great job getting to know me and understanding what I look for, and they’ve hit four home runs for me in the last couple of months. Can’t say enough good stuff about the team.
To me, Carex always felt like a partner, beyond just a recruiting firm. The team was trying out new techniques and technologies and offered recommendations on recruiting strategies, compensation methodology and competitive intelligence. I felt like they were part of our team and an extension of the Odeza ethos as an innovative, culture-focused technology startup.
Our IT resource needs can be very fluid, and the Carex team’s ability to respond quickly with excellent contract resources has allowed us to keep critical initiatives moving.
Our experience with Carex has been very positive. From adjusting our screening process with their help and prioritizing constantly changing needs to focusing on different perspectives and backgrounds to bring to the company, Carex stays in constant communication and regularly asks for feedback. They bring refreshing humility to the process and we can tell that staff enjoy their recruitment process and find them to be advocates of true marriage in role and company fit. We look forward to growing with Carex’s support and hope to continue to learn from each other in serving our community of leaders.
We’ve been extremely pleased with everything the team has done for us. They took all the stress out of the hiring process, including scheduling phone interviews and onsite interviews. It’s a relief to know that every candidate is high-caliber and especially nice knowing exactly what the candidate’s salary expectations are. The first thing I do when I have new hiring needs is email Carex. I couldn’t be more pleased!
Carex is everything you’d want in a staffing partner. Throughout the years, I’ve worked with them on both sides of the desk, customer and candidate, and they exemplify what it means to be honest, trustworthy, nonjudgmental, and true professionals. They’re someone you want in your network.
Carex was extremely hands on and responsive. Each candidate felt hand picked and Carex went the extra mile to make sure each candidate progressed smoothly through the process. Timely communication and turnaround times make a huge impact on candidates and our regular check-ins with the Carex team made sure we stood out as a high quality company.
Carex was amazing to work with! They helped us recruit for a position that they had not normally recruited for before, but were willing to try it. They ended up giving us dynamic, quality candidates that we had a hard time choosing from. We ended up with an amazing employee thanks to their timely and efficient screening and recruiting techniques. I would highly recommend their services!
We had a great experience working with Carex on bringing the right sales talent to our team! They worked with us on not only finding the right “resume” candidates but also the right culture fit. We can’t wait to see how this team performs.
Carex has been a great hiring partner for our organization. It would have been a much larger challenge to grow our team from 8 to nearly 40 without them! We love working with Joy, our recruiter. She listens to what we’re looking for and evolves her approach based on our needs. She’s like an extension of our team.
