"I love the overnight service, I don't have a lot of time for sourcing. Velocity is great for tight budgets. When compared to the cost of a $20,000 contingency search or $5000 charged by a research firm...the choice is obvious "

VELOCITY COMBINES SPEED, ACCURACY AND COST-EFFICIENCES FOR RECRUITING AND STAFFING NEEDS


 

NAPERVILLE, Ill.

The demand for HR and recruiting leaders to find employment candidates quickly and cost-effectively has never been greater, especially in todays ultra-competitive global talent war. Recognizing this need nearly a decade ago, Velocity Resource Group was established to help companies of all sizes with their candidate sourcing, screening and qualification needs.

Velocity leverages an experienced international workforce, highly disciplined sourcing techniques and cutting-edge technology to provide clients with extremely accurate candidate resumes within one business day or less an unparalleled standard. And, unlike other sourcing or Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) firms, Velocity takes a consultative approach to finding the right recruiting and staffing solutions for its clients. This approach enables Velocity to develop flexible, customized and cost-effective pricing structures, vs. a one-size-fits-all assignment and price.

In addition, Velocity can source for positions in any industry, at any level and in any market throughout the U.S. or globally. According to Velocity Co-Founder and Managing Partner John Fortino, no other company has the capability to match this service.

The demand for HR and recruiting leaders to source top talent quickly and cost-effectively has never been greater, says Fortino. HR recruiters and executives recognize the increasing number of quality candidates online and the importance of adding them to their candidate pool. Yet with millions of candidate resumes online, this can be a highly time-intensive and expensive function. Velocity was founded to help companies capitalize on this important task with speed, accuracy and cost-efficiency. We enable staffing professionals to maximize their time on more strategic work activity while reducing their recruiting costs.

Velocity offers both recruiters and HR managers cutting-edge technology tools to help them streamline and maximize their time. The Velocity Candidate Manager (VCM) System is a password protected web-based portal that enables recruiting professionals to easily view and manage all resumes presented to them by Velocity. The Velocity Manager View System (VMV) is also a password protected web-based portal that provides recruiting managers and supervisors the ability to quickly track and monitor the recruitment activities and results of their staff.

In addition to its sourcing activities, Velocity also offers the critical service of qualifying candidates to determine their availability and interest in positions. Velocitys QAI (Qualified, Available and Interested) service is a value-added step that uses a mix of branded emails and disciplined phone calling techniques from its U.S. offices to engage candidates. This unique program continues to achieve highly successful candidate contact rates and is extremely valued by busy recruiters who dont have time to call and qualify candidates.

Since its founding, Velocity has averaged a triple-digit percent annual revenue growth rate. Growing from a list of fewer than five, Velocitys client roster is now more than 200 and includes more than 50 Fortune 500 companies and several international firms.
