People Matter
Digital transformation is happening at breakneck speed. It takes unique development, design and strategic skills to deliver innovative products and services that stand out from the competition. Finding the right combination of these skills is one of the hardest recruiting challenges out there. But it doesn’t have to be.
Zilker Partners isn’t like digital staffing companies you may have worked with in the past. In fact, most staffing agencies are still figuring out this digital thing. They send their clients all kinds of people without really understanding what digital is or what skills translate into effective team members. We are changing how companies source digital talent.
We may not send you 50 resumes to review. In fact, you may only get a handful from us. Our entire mission is to make sure the talent we send over to you to consider are people we are confident have the precise digital skills you need - and will fit into your culture on day one. For us, making your life easier while getting you the talent you need to stay competitive in a digital world is our top priority.
How We Do It
We don’t just have you sign our contract. We actually take the time to get to know you and how your business runs before we start any recruiting for you. You’d think everyone would do it this way. Most just don’t take the time. They have so many clients, it’s all about volume. Not for us. We work with whom we want to work with and limit our number of clients so we ensure we always have the time we need to nurture our relationships with them and their people.
And guess what? We do the same thing with the digital talent we bring in. We make sure they trust us, talk with us and consider us their career-long advocates. We know their backgrounds, skills, personalities and career goals. We do this because we care, but we also do it because the better we know our candidates, the more accurately and effectively we can place them in jobs and on teams where we know they’ll flourish. The happier they are, the more they contribute to your company.
One of the areas we focus on with clients is building out their requirements so we can pinpoint the ideal candidates. We help you dig deep into the projects, tasks and skills you think you need and then ask detailed questions to make sure nothing is overlooked. This process results in better fits and less effort in the long run on your part.
It doesn’t take a degree to place based on a resume. With Zilker Partners, you can rest assured we aren’t just checking boxes. We fill a position based on the complete package. It’s how we’ve done it from the beginning, and it’s why customers come to us after they’ve tried using other staffing companies.
Why We Do It
Our founder has a long history in Tech & IT and has been there since Digital came to the forefront. After working with staffing companies for years, he saw a disturbing pattern. Companies received vague job requirements without a real understanding of the actual role, then threw candidates over the fence, so to speak. Most of those candidates weren’t right for the job, but as long as the staffing company was sending them leads, they believed their job was done.
Zilker Partners was founded specifically to change the industry from highly impersonal to refreshingly intimate. With a philosophy based on relationships, Zilker Partners was born. To us, recruiting isn’t about sending the most candidates; it’s about sending the right ones.
We are in this business to match talent with needs. We want to save our clients and our candidates time, cost and frustration. Hiring the wrong person is expensive. The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that a bad hire costs at least 30 percent of the employee’s first-year earnings. We don’t want to see you hire the wrong person. We don’t want to see skilled candidates take the wrong job. We perfected our process to ensure the right person is hired for the right job. Plain and simple.
