An Open Letter from Our Founder
I appreciate your interest in Collinwood!
I have had the opportunity to work alongside some of the brightest, most dedicated, and respected information technology professionals throughout my career. Luckily, I have been fortunate to have gathered some of those people to join me here at Collinwood.
Our experienced team of recruiting specialists has worked in the staffing industry for an average of 20-plus years. Throughout our careers, we have seen virtually every scenario related to matching client needs with quality candidates. As veterans of the IT services industry, we desire to be your go-to partner for anything and everything related to talent acquisition.
At Collinwood, we understand that no two clients are the same and that your needs or challenges are unique. For these reasons, we commit to first understanding your unique needs before presenting you with qualified candidates with the right level of experience, know-how, and technical skills for your consideration.
Admittedly, it sometimes takes time to find the perfect candidate in certain situations. We don’t put round pegs into square holes; every situation is unique. We won’t waste your time with “noise” by presenting unqualified candidates for the sake of presenting a candidate (a practice that is, unfortunately, somewhat prevalent in our industry).
When you engage with Collinwood, our team becomes an extension of your own. We know the right candidate also needs to fit in culturally and have great interpersonal skills, communication skills, and more. So, rest assured that when we present a candidate, you can have confidence that they are prescreened and scrutinized against your unique requirements. My team lives “Quality over Quantity” every day!
We sincerely look forward to working with you and your team.
Noel Wolf
Founder and Managing Partner
Employer FAQs
Read through our list of frequently asked questions for employers:
What are the advantages of working with Collinwood?
Collinwood is a team of recruiting veterans of the information technology industry. We help our clients find the perfect match to fit their unique requirements by being attentive, detail-oriented, personal, respectful, and professional. At Collinwood, we realize that no two requests are the same. Our team is committed to getting you the highest quality professionals available.
What can your team do that we can't do on our own?
We can’t share all the uniqueness of our approach, but as veterans of the information technology industry, we can assure you that we know this space inside and out! We understand the hottest market talent demands, the latest certifications being sought after, and more. Aside from that, we have a proprietary approach to continuously identifying and qualifying the best IT professionals out there.
I’ve never used an IT staffing company. How does it work?
Engaging Collinwood is pretty straightforward. We recruit employees for any open information technology positions on behalf of your company. You may be seeking temporary help, which can be fulfilled by a contract employee or you might be seeking a more permanent staffing solution with a full-time employee. You may even be seeking a blend of both where you can confirm the candidate’s fit with your organization on a temporary basis with the option to hire full-time at a later date should you choose to do so.
Our engagement begins with your interest in our services. Once we meet with you to thoroughly understand your unique job requirements, budget, as well as company culture, we begin our initial search within our talent pool. As we begin to identify candidates that match the requirements, we will coordinate and consult with you during the interview process. Once you have selected the ideal candidate, we will handle all the paperwork and other matters that vary by engagement type to seal the deal.
Where do you find your candidates?
Our team of specialized recruiters works for YOU! They interview new candidates daily. We have an extensive database of pre-qualified candidates to assess against your needs. Our team regularly attends various networking events to stay connected. We source out of companies, recruit from universities, leverage social media, and email marketing. We tap our network for referrals and more. Our proprietary recruiting strategy allows us to identify qualified candidates to ensure we only introduce the best people for your needs.
Can you fulfill our staffing needs nationally?
Yes, we can! Absolutely. While we do have regional offices in Chicago, Dallas, and Indianapolis, we also have staffed consultants all across the United States and Canada.
What is Collinwood's fee structure?
The best part about working with Collinwood is that we clearly understand there is NO one-size-fits-all approach to finding quality talent. With Collinwood as your trusted recruiting partner, you are positioning your company for success with top-quality IT professionals. We work hard to get to know you and the nuances of your business. As your trusted recruiting partner, we will work closely with you to understand your budget and structure our fees accordingly. We are serious about building and earning trust with each and every client.
Can you fulfill non-information technology roles?
Not typically. We know what we are good at and stick to our “lanes”. We are a specialized recruiting firm that is solely dedicated to finding the best talent available within the Information Technology industry. We can help locate professionals to help with your needs for professionals focused in ERP, Development, Business Intelligence, Cloud, Big Data, and DevOps/Infrastructure.
