Preferred Member of the Top Echelon Network

Since 2001, the Boland Group has been a premier member of Top Echelon, the world's most successful placement network.  We can partner with over 1200 professional recruiters who adhere to a common code of conduct and share access to proprietary recruiting technology, including summaries from in-depth screening of candidates.

Because some of our clients need to get a project done, but don’t have the budget for adding headcount, we offer the flexibility of temp to perm placements and contract staffing services. (We provide all of the back office administration, e.g. tax filing and withholding, funding payroll, insurance and benefits, etc.)  Contact us or see the Employer Of Record Service page to learn more.

What does mean... for our Clients?

We offer the reach and resources of a global firm, while maintaining the low overhead, independence and flexibility to meet our clients’ unique service level requirements. We pride ourselves on helping our clients address the complete human capital challenge -- not just the senior executive searches we personally conduct.

The Boland Group specializes in recruiting leadership for mission driven organizations (leadership for United Ways, YMCAs, FQHCs, CMHCs, Behavioral Health), information intensive industries (IT, professional services, healthcare, financial services, administration) and selected energy sensitive markets (mission critical data centers, critical facilities infrastructure, commercial and electrical engineering and construction). 

We belong to Top Echelon so that we have the infrastructure and back office to provide end to end staffing solutions, e.g. rapidly recruit highly specialized or difficult to fill sales, marketing, technical and consulting "bench strength" positions.

Because of our membership in TE, we can tap into the resources of other top notch recruiters to more rapidly fill our client’s openings, bringing hundreds of years of HR and recruiting experience to each new recruiting assignment. Individually and collectively, we can provide local coverage and national/global reach, from both an industry depth and a functional expertise perspective.

This enables us to focus is on finding the best qualified candidates in the shortest period of time: Instead of trying to execute every assignment 'flying solo', we agree in advance to split our fees with the search consultant in our practice that brings us the best qualified candidate first.

We provide our clients with access to the resources and knowledge of literally hundreds of recruiters – but with a single point of contact to manage. Because of our high ranking in the network, we are able to negotiate commitment of dedicated resources to our client’s searches as a priority over other searches. We pride ourselves on our ability to marshal the best resources on behalf of our clients.

What does mean... for our Candidates?

Top Echelon allows us to focus on what we do best – serving our clients -- while still helping candidates whose experience is not within our sphere of expertise. For example, although we specialize in information intensive industries and information sensitive functions, including executive level searches across the IT, healthcare, financial services and professional services industries, as a Preferred Member of Top Echelon, we are happy to share candidates whose experience is outside or sphere of expertise with other top flight recruiters in our network.

For many years we've tried to explain to candidates whose experience lies outside our sphere of expertise, that we can't help them because "we find people for jobs -- not jobs for people". Now, when we receive a resume or a call from a candidate for whom we are not likely to have any openings, we can refer them to a recruiter we know personally, that specializes in that candidate's field. Because of the large data base Top Echelon maintains of unsolicited resumes, we can at least make this individual's profile available to interested recruiters, by providing them exposure to over 1200 other recruiters who are working on over 3000 openings at any given time.
